Top Shakespeare's Birthplace Hotel Reviews

Macdonald Alveston Manor Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"Overall, the hotel is quite nice. Unfortunately, it’s challenging to contact the front desk from the rooms and we had to request three times to get a second set of towels for the two of us. The air conditioning wasn’t turned on so the room was quite stuffy as the windows do not open. The location was superb, the staff friendly, and the room was comfortable. Overall, a nice experience."

The Queens Head

10/10 Excellent

"It was very convenient for town"

Crowne Plaza Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

8/10 Good

"We stay there often to meet family - very good"

The Swans Nest Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very good hotel, well located near the town centre. The room was good, spacious and dog friendly. Hotel staff were very helpful and we really enjoyed our weekend stay. We will definitely be back."

The Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Welcome at reception very friendly and staff pointed me towards a car park around the corner where I could leave the car for 2 days (£30 incidentally, so comparable with public car park rates). Room/bed comfortable, shower excellent. Breakfast menu varied and ample, and my wife's GF needs met. The location could not be better, with easy walking distance to all important Shakespeare sights, and literally opposite Shakespeare's schoolroom. Main purpose of our visit was to attend RSC production, and the theatre is only 5 minutes walk. A possible downside to this property for some is the lack of a lift...perhaps unsurprising in a 400-year old hotel, but we (both in our 70s) found 2 flights of stairs with luggage a bit of a struggle. That apart, this is a charming place to stay with bags of character and so central."

The Grosvenor Hotel

8/10 Good

"Lovely convenient hotel. Super location and easy to get to the main part of Stratford. The hotel is clean and has ample parking at the rear. The room too was clean. But is literally a bed. A couple more things would have made our stay more comfortable. Such as more than one pillow each, a mirror in the room would be good also just a bin. There are no hair dryers or iron in the room. On whole a good hotel for a short stay."

Stratford Studios

10/10 Excellent

"This was so amazing that we extended our stay. Conveniently located between train station and all the local historic sites. Full kitchen and washing machine made it great for us as senior backpackers. Rolando was very kind, gracious, excellent Communicator."

Premier Inn Stratford-Upon-Avon Waterways

8/10 Good

"It was a good place to stay. Staff was helpful. Clean with USB ports in the room. We had a nice view of canal below. Decent breakfast/dinner menu and nice little bar with outside seating by the canal."

Bodhi Tree Cottage - Grove Road Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"This was by far the best value option I found in Stratford for a group of six and it worked better than I could have hoped for a family group including two young kids. The living room area was more open plan than I’d realised, which was a bonus. Brilliant location - very central. The car park next door is handy with good availability, albeit not quite as competitively priced as Bodhi Cottage!"
