We’d return!
The staff were very friendly and helpful, the room comfortable and spacious. It’s conveniently placed for the theatre and town, with on site parking so you could leave the car and walk around. There was enough choices for breakfast and what we had, was nice enough.

Lovely, comfortable hotel with a great restaurant and pub. It’s an easy walk across the old tram bridge to the Royal Shakespeare Company theatres and the center of town. The train station is less than a mile away. I would definitely stay there again!

An excellent January visit.
The hotel was a perfect choice for us, in transit southwards, to call on a friend in Stratford. Professional, pleasant staff, no difficulties, good food, top class breakfast, convenient for the town. Maybe late January was a good time to visit, but we were well suited.
