Very conveniently located. Good food, friendly and very helpful staff. We were able to park in one the few tight spots available alingside the white building. The doors accessing our room did not securely close although we were able to lock the room door once inside. Overall good stay.

Accommodation is right in the centre where all the action is in Stratford upon Avon, perfect for sight seeing, bars and restaurants. Very reasonably priced for this area, room was very spacious with a large window with a view. Tea coffee facilities, iron and ironing board, little seating space and a desk. There was a fan in the room which was perfect and needed as it was a warm day outside. With it being a pub below and the room looking over the pub outside garden, it was a little noisy but expected! Staff were very polite and helpful! Would stay here again!

Lovely traditional pub. Good food. Welcoming staff. Was very hot when we were there and opening windows let in a lot of traffic noise and noise from outside tables below. No fridge in room for medication.

Brilliant stay- thank you !

Food served in the pub was lovely. We had a lunch deal of a ciabatta, chips and a drink for about £11. It was delicious. Bar staff friendly and advised us when it was happy hour so we could order cheaper drinks. Could not do enough for us to make our stay as enjoyable as possble. Would recommend this Inn to everyone! We would also recommend the breakfast, great value for money and well cooked.

Lovely place to stay

This newly furbished hotel was very nicely done. Staying with my cousin we had single beds, which were not comfortable, they were very hard. The menu in the evening was easy, and the pre ordered breakfast was good. On arrival the entrance to the car park wasnt easy to find, and spaces few. On leaving there was a delivery, which blocked the only way in and out. We were in no hurry but others may do well to ask if a delivery is due, if they dont want to be held up. Some staff (food servers)were very helpfull, others didnt seem to care. Very well positioned to walk to Shakespeares birth place.

Good location, but room hard to access.

The hotel is conveniently located near the RSC and downtown Stratford. The room was clean and comfortable, but the stairs to get to our room were extremely narrow and steep. It was impossible for us to carry our suitcases up those stairs ourselves, so we had to ask the staff for help. Fortunately, they helped us out - but we had to wait, as they had other duties, and seemed a bit put out by our request.

Check in was very easy and the guy at the desk was friendly. My room was nice but there were a few issues such as the heated towel rail not working (it would switch on for a few minutes and then turn off). Other than that the room was great and cleaned to a perfect standard.
