Top The River Avon Trail Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Very pleasantly surprised by this hotel. Decor very nice. Rooms well equipped. Comfortable bed. Outside garden area fabulous. Would stay again."

The Grosvenor Hotel

8/10 Good

"I stayed in the hotel 1 night, the hotel itself is big and well maintained, the staff are helpful and courteous. Beds aren't very comfortable( maybe because it was the separate pull out single bed). For a room where there is booking for 3 people if you put only 2 cups , 2 glasses and 2 tea bags it doesn't give a great impression on your customer. Parking charges- 12 pounds for 24 hours also stings a bit The best thing is the location right next to the high street and the river."

Avonpark House

10/10 Excellent

"When booking it mentioned that limited parking was available however there was sufficient parking for all guests (apparently this generally only becomes an issue in peak season when guests bring multiple vehicles). The location was great, only 15-20 minutes walk to the centre of Stratford with a few pubs & restaurants even closer. Martin & Maria are lovely hosts and the room and communal areas were all very clean, modern & well finished. An excellent and comprehensive choice of breakfasts are provided. The rear decked balcony area and garden provide a lovely area for relaxation. Despite my room fronting a relatively road it was surprisingly quiet."

The DoubleTree by Hilton Stratford-upon-Avon

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent breakfast, close to attractions, pet friendly and air conditioning worked well."

Premier Inn Stratford-Upon-Avon Waterways

10/10 Excellent

"My expectations were far exceeded with this style. Myself and my two children had a river view family room which was a great size and had a lovely view. The breakfast was better than average for a very responsible price and kids ate free! The location is exceptional and had parking. We could walk to Shakespeare's birthplace in 5 mins or less. Would absolutely stay here again."

Crowne Plaza Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

8/10 Good

"Public areas were very impressive and luxurious. We loved the gardens and sitting out spaces. Nice to have the club lounge access with premium rooms- really enjoyed this facility. Good WiFi. Great parking. Fantastic location near town and theatres and restaurants and shops. It would have been good to have a coffee machine ( nespresso) in a premium room- the Premier Inn chain do this!"

The Queens Head

8/10 Good

"The Queen's Head is small, comfortable, good value, and convenient to local sights, but it's fairly basic inn-style accommodation above a lively pub. Staff are friendly and helpful, but they are mostly pub staff. The bar across the street is noisy in the evenings (some wonderfully bad karaoke), which some guests may find disruptive. Its main virtue is that it is cheap, clean and convenient."

Simpsons Cottage - Grove Road Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very close to everything. Chargeable parking literally next door which was very handy."

Luxury Town Centre Apartment Stratford Upon Avon

10/10 Excellent

"Property located extremely well for Christmas market enjoyable, and historic landmarks of great interest Accommodation had everything we needed. "
