Top Shakespeare's Birthplace Hotel Reviews

The Grosvenor Hotel

8/10 Good

"clean room and walking distance to the main markets and streets. Staff were polite and friendly where needed. Special mention (I cannot remember her name!) but injured my foot and needed an extra pillow to elevate my foot, which wasn’t available, but the lady at reception was quick to suggest an alternative of using towels to help elevate my foot. 10/10 👍 would stay here again!"

Hotel Indigo Stratford Upon Avon by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and fresh, as were the facilities in general. The breakfast was wonderful!"

The White Swan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location in the center of town. Rooms were OK and the General areas were historic and fun. No parking."

The DoubleTree by Hilton Stratford-upon-Avon

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very friendly and welcoming- great start to arrive to. Breakfast was great - very good range of choice and helpful staff when we requested food for allergies."

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."

Stratford Studios

10/10 Excellent

"The studio was quite modern and very clean. The location is very convenient to all of the sites. It is in a very quiet and safe space."

Bodhi Tree Cottage - Grove Road Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"This was by far the best value option I found in Stratford for a group of six and it worked better than I could have hoped for a family group including two young kids. The living room area was more open plan than I’d realised, which was a bonus. Brilliant location - very central. The car park next door is handy with good availability, albeit not quite as competitively priced as Bodhi Cottage!"

Simpsons Cottage - Grove Road Cottages

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, very close to everything. Chargeable parking literally next door which was very handy."

Shakespeare House, Free Parking, Town Centre Location

10/10 Excellent

"Travelled with family. Easy access to lock box outside. Spacious. Lovely 3 bedroom charactered house. Good location. En-suite bedroom on first floor with 4 poster bed with TV. Top floor have two bedrooms, would be perfect if there is another TV upstairs too for the children! Kitchen well equipped with dishwasher. Very pleased about the deep bath ! "
