Beautiful hotel - Amazing food
We had a wonderful stay at The Arden. Reception were friendly and helped with our bags. The room was amazing. We booked a Delux room and stayed in 'Pine'. We travelled with our little girl and she had her own bed in the room. There was plenty of room for the extra bed. Our bed was huge and very comfortable! The bathroom was amazing, I have never seen such a big bath!! We booked breakfast and dinner and I'm so pleased ww did. The food was outstanding! I am gluten free and they took great care over each meal. There were great choices for our little girl and she enjoyed the food too. Loads of choices for breakfast. I highly recommend staying here.

Warm welcome awaits at this lovely hotel.
A warm welcome from the friendliest receptionist (sorry we didn’t get her name). She looked after our bags while we had a delicious lunch in the brasserie. Our room was lovely - clean and spacious with a lovely bottle of wine. Toiletries in the bathroom were lovely quality although from an eco point of view a shame to see so much single use plastic. Breakfast was really good with a wide choice of fruits/cereals and pastries and a choice of hot food made to order. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay enhanced by every single member of staff being so warm and friendly. We will definitely stay with you again when we return to Stratford upon Avon.

Decent hotel in great location. Finding room can be a little confusing, and pillows definitely need upgrading - apart from that it was a good 1 night stay

Exceeded Expectations
The customer service was spot on from start to finish. We stayed 2 nights on a last minute getaway and the hotel didnt disappoint. We went away for a little break after our engagement. The hotel left a little plate with a treat on wishing us "Congratulations" which was a really nice touch. The cleanliness of the room and hotel overall was really good. The only thing that was to fault was the amenities holder in the shower was broken and the shower waste was slightly discoloured. Those are the only things. The rooms are really spacious, the bed was massive. Overall, we would absolutely stay here again and even thinking of booking a stay as a gift for relatives. Thank you

Great location for theatre-goers
The Arden is a very comfortable hotel, conveniently situated just across the road from the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and the Swan, and a two-minute walk from the Other Place. The staff were very welcoming and extremely helpful, going out of their way to meet our needs. The ground floor rooms are a bit dark, and the lighting is not ideal. Some of the carpets could do with a refresh.

Great place to stay for the theatre. Even tho there was a big wedding staff did best to make us welcome and comfortable and explain what was different. Spacious room and bathroom, good extras and a nice welcome bottle of wine (from Expedia/Hotels.com). Breakfast very comfortable and good selection, well cooked and prepared. Overall very good indeed.

Very nice comfortable stay
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.

Lovely property in an utterly brilliant location. Some aspects of our room were a bit disappointing. It looked a bit tired in places Breakfast was also disappointing. We had a lovely brunch at Yorks in town instead on the second day. But we’d be back to the hotel based purely on location and the fact it was clean and staff welcoming and helpful

August 3-5, 2024. Temperature: very warm and no rain! We just adored this town and the hotel! I was disappointed that there was no Lift, but it worked! We loved our room, the workers, and how RSC was across from us! We very much enjoyed our visit, and if we ever came back, we will use this hotel again! We loved Allie who worked the front desk! She recommended Loxley Restaurant for dinner, and it was excellent!
