Great stay - perfect location for the centre. Room was comfortable and clean with lovely decor. Staff were helpful even letting us leave bags after checkout for our day exploring. Breakfast was delicious too! Would stay here again and reccomend.
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.
Great stay, really close to shops and attractions. Definitely will stay here again if ever in Stratford upon Avon again. Staff friendly and attentive. Restaurant and Pub great food and drinks
We were there to to the RSC and all the historical sites and this couldn’t have been a better place to stay. The friendly staff made it so enjoyable and the room was perfect.

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.
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!
Perfect in every way. Room superb with all that u need. Comfy bed and very clean. Perfect location next to river basin. We ate at night which along with breakfast was faultless but from check in to check out the staff were awesome with genuine attention to detail. Will be back and will recommend

Everything was fine. Our check-in was delayed because the computer system was down. We waited in the pub-would have been nice if you'd comped our drinks. The clerk was perfectly kind-it was out of her control.
We were surprised that there was only very minimal housekeeping (bathroom trash emptied, but dirty mugs not replace, towels left on floor). Usually if there's no housekeeping except on request there's a notice that states that.
The dark haired gentleman that served us was wonderful at his job. He was kind and laughed as we arrived from a late train to quickly change outfits in the toilets and run off to not miss our show with promise to return and check in properly. He took it in stride and when we returned hours later he had sorted our bags and welcomed us with joy. We had a wonderful dinner, drinks and dessert before tucking in our cozy, clean and safe home for the night with his assurance that should anything go bump in the night, we will be taken care of. It was a delightful memory from our last night in England before we travel back to Canada where customer service is no longer anything like what this man provided. We are deeply touched and grateful for the welcoming.
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.
Characterful old inn.
Easy short walk to RSC theatre.
Excellent breakfast with plenty of choice.
Be aware that stairs to bedrooms are narrow and quite steep, though the helpful lady who showed us to our room did offer to carry our bag for us.

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.

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.
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.
The property was in a great location with easy access to the centre of Stratford Upon Avon. This made finding food during our stay very easy. There is no car parking but the multistorey next door to the property only cost £20 for 3 nights.
The room itself was nice and comfortable. However, it did lack a fridge in the room. For the price, this is something we'd have liked to have seen. The room also had quite a few cobwebs hanging from the ceiling. Being an old building, this can be expected, but a quick dust before our arrival would have added a extra star to the review.
The walls are also very thin between the rooms. During our first night, we had an uncomfortable night's sleep owing to the couple next door...
The staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. We asked for an ice bucket for instance to take to our room and they were more than willing to help.
Overall, if you're looking for a convenient, well located place to stay in the centre of Stratford, this is the place for you.
Perfect location. Clean rooms with iron, ironing board and hairdryer. Only stayed 1 night but will be back. Food is also delicious! The description says check in at 3 and check out at 10 but it’s actually 2pm check in and 11am check out!
