Fair price for a quick visit
We went to Strafford Upon Avon for a couple of days to explore around spending most of time outside. The room was very simple and but with some tea and coffee available. The heating went off in the evening but we called the reception and they turned it on again (the room was freezing). The hot water wasnt that hot and the shower was a bit difficult due the low temperatures. The tiles in the shower had some black spots but it was ok. The Hotel is walking distance to the high street and best places to visit. Easy checkin and checkout.

DO NOT STAY HERE
VERY dated room with no effort to make it make the room feel like a hotel room. No heating, no lock on the bathroom door, mould in the bathroom and around the window, kettle just plonked on the floor with wires everywhere. Handwritten notices all over the room. Extremely loud pub/club noises until 4am. Dirty sheets. Do not stay here

Basic but clean
This was a cheap room in centre of Stratford so you obviously get what you pay for as Stratford accommodation is not cheap. It was v basic clean accommodation in a very old pub - don’t expect anything more than that and was fine for one night.

Basic clean accommodation above a busy noisy pub
Location is an easy walk from the station and close to the centre of town and its attractions. No breakfast is available unless booked in advance. Room has a kettle. Good size room. Comfortable bed. Well heated with thermostatic radiator and heated towel rail. Water pressure in shower good, hot water immediately available. Mould on shower ceiling and small patches of mould on grouting between tiles. I stayed on a mid-September Saturday night and had requested a quiet room. Any sound insulation was ineffective with music, singing and shouting clearly heard from the bar below. Also noise from the corridor too. Single glazing means that any external noise is heard. The night I stayed the pub opposite had a live band that played until late and the last revellers were still talking in the street outside until 1am. Regular not blackout curtains. I’d stay here again but would bring good earplugs and an eye mask.

Charming pub right in the centre of Stratford Upon Avon. Easy to walk to all main attractions. Staff friendly and happy to assist me with my rather awkwardly sized bag. Bed comfortable, lovely hot shower. Would recommend.

Fine place
Late arrival was no problem and we were able to store our luggage after check out to finish touring the town. Staff made sure someone helped us up the stairs with our luggage and were willing to provide all we needed. The only thing that was tricky was half our bed was lopsided, so my husband felt he was falling out of his side.
