Whilst visiting Stratford We came across this hotel by chance and must say were pleasantly surprised. The room was of a good size and standard and had good view across a park. The common areas were very quaint and had very cosy seated areas around a large blazing open fire. Excellent location and good overall value more

Our stay was a Birthday surprise as we had visited the hotel on several occasions and had a beverage in the bar area which we were very impressed with. Sadly upon arrival we were told our room was not in the main hotel but a small building across the car park, which we had not been advised about on booking.... more

The position of The Shakespeare Hotel is second to none, right in the center of lovely Stratford Upon Avon. The only down fall to this fantastic position is the small hotel car park. On arrival I had to leave my car overnight in the NCP car park a fair distance from the hotel. Though vouchers were given out to pay... more

We have just come back from a weekend stay and it was one of those rare occasions when everything (except the weather!) was great. The hotel is situated in the centre of town, the public rooms have lots of character and there are two very good restaurants (Garrick and Othello) which were reasonably priced.

Rooms are certainly above... more

Creaking floorboards added... more

We spent two nights at this very charming Hotel. The double room itself was small but quaintly furnished however, the bathroom was large and plain. The toiletries were of a good standard. My son who was staying in a room the other side of the corridor had a much larger room and bathroom both of which were furnished in a... more
