Top Royal Shakespeare Theatre Hotel Reviews

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!"

Hotel Indigo Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel, brilliant location, fabulous food.x"

The Grosvenor Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is very rough around the edges especially externally. The rooms clearly need updating too. The reception area has been modernised. For what we paid for one night it was acceptable and very good location for Stratford itself."

Green Haven Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Great location - close to town centre - within easy walking distance of the town centre. Breakfast was cooked fresh and tasty with good options. Nice and clean - great that it has onsite parking too."

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."
