The Arden Hotel

Friendly and very helpful staff. We had a great room - clean, comfortable and good amenities. Very helpful with a young baby.

Very nice hotel in the perfect location. Plenty of parking space which is always fantastic. We stayed 1 night as a family. The hotel is very comfortable for a short stay. The check in and welcome was met with very friendly smiley staff. Our room was fine with enough space for the 3 of us. The bed was comfy and we slept well. We had drinks in the late evening with the Negroni being one of the best one’s i’ve ever had, ended having two!! There were no pizzas when we tried to order room service around 11pm which was a bit disappointing so we settled for sandwiches/cheese platter/grapes/crackers/salad which was fine. The rooms are key entry, where I think card entry would be better. Would happily stay again. Stratford Upon Avon is a beautiful little town and obviously all things Shakespeare are quite incredible. Would happily recommend this place.

We went to the Arden for our 40th Wedding Anniversary as we had started our Honeymoon in Stratford (at the Welcome Hotel outside town). We also have spent several New Years Eve's at the Arden when the children were young and the Grandmas were old so it was a very nice place to take them all. So we had a nostalgic trip back. Our only problem with the hotel now was meal times. We ate in the restaurant on the Friday (the day of our arrival) and had a really lovely meal but the service was very slow. Breakfast Saturday and Sunday was unenspiring (chucked on the plate) and also very slow and my husband's order was wrong on Sunday (after waiting 30 minutes but was corrected in 2 minutes!) although we did get an apology on Sunday morning for the lateness and the offer of extra tea and toast! At reception we were told that if 45 rooms go down for breakfast at the same time it creates a problem! Why?

The hotel itself is lovely and in a beautiful place, we love stratford. We went away for a night of peace from the children and unfortunately we had noisy upstairs neighbours and had to make a call to reception. We did get an apology but that was all.

Lovely hotel for our stay. Husband and wife and toddler. The room was a great size to fit our travel cot. The staff were really lovely and welcoming. The hotel was also brilliantly located within walking distance of all the town’s main areas.
