Generally ok but all communal areas very cold and room heating didn’t seem to be working. There was a plug in radiator but it took a long time for the room to warm up. The pool was very good but again very cold (and no hot tub) so I personally was not able to swim. Bathroom a bit tired with cracked sink. Bar service and food very pleasant.

Very pleasant experience in Strattford-upon-Avon
We have spent a wonderful night at Mcdonald Alveston Manor. People at the reception was very nice and friendly and we received a very much appreciated upgrades on our room due a party would have been going on that night close to the room we have had booked online and this could have been an issue for us. The room they gave us was beautiful, spacious, clean and very quite. The bathroom as well was immaculate with plenty of space. I would suggest just a little bit of more attention to the breakfast which was much under our expectations. I would definitely come back again!

Highly recommended
As a family party of 11 adults, 2 young children and a dog, this was an ideal place for us all to meet up and to exchange Christmas presents in a peaceful lounge area. Staff were friendly and helpful, making sure we had all we needed and the rooms were quiet and very comfortable. The building itself is impressive and only a short walk to the town centre.

Convenient place to stay but avoid the breakfast
Checkin was slow. Bed was hard. Breakfast was without doubt the absolute worst I’ve ever had anywhere in the world. Shower leaked all over the floor and I soaked two towels mopping it up. Wasn’t told until the day before we arrived about parking charges. Room was clean and spacious. Very convenient location.

Storm weekend
We had a great time and a well situated hotel. It was a shame that the weekend we chose we had a storm and the Christmas market was cancelled. But that can’t be helped. Room was very cold but we told reception and they gave us a heater which was a great help. Would definitely book this hotel again

Quiet hotel within easy walking distance of the town centre. The facilities and pool area were very clean and staff were all friendly and helpful. The rooms were a little on the dated side but also clean and tidy. My only criticism is that the additional £7 fee per day to park in the hotel grounds after already paying for the hotel was a little unnecessary and disappointing.

When we arrived at late evening the room was not prepared with the correct beds. The tv was broken ( fuse had been removed) We booked breakfast for 9.30 but the table was not prepared. We were in the bar area due to the dog which was absolutely fine. However the cleaner continued to clean and hoover around us while eating breakfast.

Very disappointed ☹️
Our stay was very disappointing. Having paid extra for a superior room it was anything but. Freezing cold on arrival. Everything the room was tired and wornout. The 3 old, radom unmatching chairs were theadbear with very little stuffing left. The coffee table was very bashed scratched and stained. The bed was the most uncomfortable I have slept in with a completely mismatched set of thin pillows. Dust you could write in on window cill and mould in the bathroom…… At breakfast we felt a £5 supplement (above the £24 already paid) for an egg muffin or avacado seemed steep. Having ordered full English breakfast, the bacon sausage and egg were good but we were given half a mushroom! Surely a whole one or even two wouldn’t have broken the bank, seemed miserly for no reason. We will not be back, shame as living locally we had always dreamed of one day staying at Alveston Manor.

We’ve stayed here many times before and this was no different. All the staff are always so helpful and friendly. It’s only a short walk to the town, the Avon and the RSC. We love staying the original part of the property where the floors are reassuringly squeaky and wonky…it is Shakespeare country after all.
