Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a perfect location, just a short stroll to the center and within walking distance of all the town center's attractions. The rooms were very clean but show signs of aging. The service was not professional overall, although we did receive a complimentary bottle of wine. The dining options were fantastic, offering a variety of choices including vegan and gluten-free. The pool area is disappointingly small. The price was reasonable for the value offered.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although clean, were a bit humid and not as well-maintained as expected for the price. The staff's service was slow at times and lacked knowledge on local attractions. However, the location was ideal for exploring Stratford, and the dining options were mostly good, though inconsistency was noticed. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel is nicely located by the river, with beautiful views and close to the town center. The rooms are spacious, but the thin walls and parking fees can be a drawback. The service is exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff. The dining options are varied, but the atmosphere can be busy at times.
The hotel is centrally located in Stratford, offering easy access to town amenities. The rooms were not as clean as expected, with issues like low water pressure in the shower and leftover stains from previous guests. The service was excellent, with friendly and accommodating staff. The dining experience was mixed, with some dishes of poor quality. Overall, a convenient location but cleanliness needs improvement.

The dining experience had good choices but inconsistent food temperature at times. The facilities were well-organized and functional.
I had a relaxing stay at Crowne Plaza in Stratford Upon Avon. The room, though a bit small to maneuver a wheelchair, was clean and comfortable. The proximity to the kitchen's air extraction outlets was a minor inconvenience due to the constant operation hours.

My stay at this hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The room was extremely comfortable, providing a good night's sleep, but the noise level was quite high, and the space felt a bit small without a couch or bath. On the upside, I had a lovely surprise of being invited to use the club lounge after not being informed about it on the first day.
The hotel's rooms, while clean and comfortable, were a bit tired and could use some attention, especially the bathroom. However, the service was friendly and helpful, though there were some issues with communication. The location was excellent for shopping and local attractions but marred by occasional staff rudeness. The dining experience was pleasant with a good selection, but improvements are needed in keeping food warm. Overall, a reasonably priced stay with a mix of positives and negatives.
The hotel is centrally located near key attractions, making it convenient for exploring the area. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, although there was a delay in room availability before 3 pm. The service had some ups and downs, with unorganized staff members but exceptional service from Mick at breakfast. Despite a disappointing lunch meet-up fee, the parking availability was a plus. The dining experience fell short in quality and service, leading to a disappointing breakfast experience. The facilities were in good condition overall.
The hotel had spacious rooms but lacked some expected amenities like drinking water and biscuits. The room was warm with limited ventilation. Service was efficient, and the staff was polite and charming, though noise disruption affected sleep. The location was excellent with a tranquil setting but noisy air conditioning. The dining experience was busy but satisfactory. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was perfect, overlooking the river and well-kept, ideal for both theater and town exploration. However, the room was a bit of a letdown due to noise from the extractor flues and unexpected dirtiness. The service was top-notch with quick check-in and very accommodating staff, but the dining experience could use some improvements in terms of food quality and value for money.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were great and quiet, but unfortunately, my room was right over the ballroom, leading to a sleepless hot night with an open window that provided little relief.
The hotel's location couldn't be better, very close to the town center. The rooms were a little tatty, with some peeling wallpaper and mismatched paint touch-ups, but we were pleased with the sofa bed for the third person. At night, there were disturbances from neighboring guests coming in drunk or escorted by police officers.
