Top Shakespeare's Birthplace Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"If I could give six stars to everything, I would. Wonderful hotel."

The White Swan Hotel

8/10 Good

"You stay here to experience history! It was built in 1450 and is a beautiful antique hotel with character and modern baths. There was a carnival happening when we were there that made it louder than usual, but that wasn’t really the fault of the hotel. Very convenient to all the Shakespeare sights you might want to see in this quaint town."

The Swans Nest Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A good stay with helpful staff, very close to town centre would be first choice when visiting Stratford."

The Arden Hotel

8/10 Good

"Beautiful hotel and grounds. Very welcoming and friendly staff. Lovely room. Wonderfully comfy bed and bedding. Good tea tray. Tv aerial wasn't working but the netflix on the tv was. Lovely bathroom. Delicious breakfast and car parking on site is a real bonus. Great location, literally opposite the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and on the edge of the town centre, ideal for restaurants and shops. Only downside was the room was very warm, even when we had heating off and a fan, but I am a very warm person."

The Townhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Great location!"

Macdonald Alveston Manor Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel, highly recommend"

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."

2 bedroom town centre apartmnet with free parking

10/10 Excellent

The Queens Head

8/10 Good

"Ideal location, amazing hosts, we had a great time. Room is basic but comfortable which is reflected by the price, We would definitely go back. Parking can be tricky, we parked in the multi storey for £15 a day which is 1 minute walk away"
