Hotels near Stalls Lifestyle, Stratford-upon-Avon

It took 5 minutes to walk to the Shakespeare's house. It was a little hard to find a car. On a three-way road, parking was not very convenient. At that time, I found the parking lot for several rounds.

We stayed there two nights and there were 4 of us thus two, Deluxe rooms were booked. Absolutely nothing, except the size, was anywhere near Deluxe. The seats of the bar chairs were stained badly. The fridge in the room was empty, not even a bottle of water. When I asked if they had forgotten to fill it, the receptionist, totally disinterested, answered that they didn’t do that anymore and if we wanted a bottle of water, we had to ask for it at the reception. It was free but only on request. The second day we returned from a long day out to find the room and bed not made up and the bathroom exactly as we had left it.. again at the reception, where I was told that that also was only on request. We have stayed in very many hotels this and also in past years but this was just totally at the bottom of the list even though it was one of the most expensive. €1,000 for two nights. There were no lights on the dark path around the hotel.All in all a discrace all round for any hotel, not to mind a, so called luxury hotel… terrible. Booking.com only mentions our favorable comments and that were ..Good beds and pillows and perfect location. Had I read any of the more honest reactions, I would never have chosen this hotel. Hospitality was totally lacking, just as the honesty on the Booking.com site. Sad after many years of loyal use and satisfaction.. very disappointed this year !

I've stayed at this hotel four times, and unfortunately, I've consistently been disappointed with the housekeeping service. Each time, the room was never topped up with essentials, and the bins were left full, even when we put the ”clean my room” tag out. This lack of attention from housekeeping has been frustrating. However, when I reported the issue to reception during my most recent stay, Rejo from the reception team immediately took action. He personally came to our room and cleaned it thoroughly, ensuring everything was in order and making our stay much more comfortable. His prompt response and dedication to resolving the issue were greatly appreciated.

The service was great! There was an error with room allocation and as the booked room was not available, we got upgraded to a suite which was wonderful as we were celebrating a special milestone birthday. The dinner at the Trevellyn Restaurant was beyond expectation as we were vegetarian and the vegetarian meal prepared by the chef was awesome. The hotel decor itself looked a little tired although it added to the authentic look of the listed building. It was a hot weekend during our stay and although there was no air conditioning, a small fan was provided which made a little difference when sleeping at night. The gardens needed some upkeep and it would have been lovely if the fountains had been working. Overall we did enjoy our stay and look forward to coming back again after it has gone through some upgrading and refurbishing.

I booked this hotel for a weekend break to celebrate our friends 40th wedding anniversary, and having read some of the recent reviews I was a tad worried to say the least , so here’s my take and opinion including other reviews . During the booking process and subsequent communication with the reception and booking staff , I can only say it was exceptional and first class . On arrival we were warmly greeted and checked in to our rooms , the approach to the hotel is very nice , reception was spacious and clean . Our two rooms were next door to each other and both were spacious and clean ( no sign of cob webs or dirty items as other reviews has stated ) one of the rooms ( our friends ) did have an issue with one flickering light and one bedside light not working plus only one hand towel. My friend reported this and a Bath towel was supplied straight away ( no hand towel available) and the reception did day she had no maintenance on site , but would endeavour to get the lights addressed the next day , unfortunately this did not happen . However as my friends said it wasn’t the end of the world and didn’t detract from their stay but it would need addressing before new guests used the room . Breakfast was buffet style and was good it had a cooked option , which was replenished quite frequently so sometimes a slight wait for all options to be available but imo didn’t cause an issue and meant all cooked items were fresh, toast, cereal , pastries, fruit juices and teas and coffee all available too. On the Friday we had dinner in the restaurant after pre drinks in the bar . The bar area and drinks were fine albeit some items requested were not available, no Tia Maria , no floater coffees ( post dinner ) , prices were the unusual hotel type prices 20-40% dearer than pubs so no shock there ( other reviews questioned prices ) The dinner in the restaurant was very good, food was a good quality and well prepared and presented ( again based on previous reviews I wasn’t expecting this ) if you read any of my other reviews you will know I am a foodie so I only praise food when it’s justified. Service was good until the dessert ( found out later , some agency staff were used in the restaurant) we ordered a hot desert but wanted ice cream with it as well , so effectively ordered two desserts for three of us , and that seemed to confuse one of the servers who grunted when he only brought out one ice cream dessert , when we asked for the other two , however he was in the minority and the rest of the servers and staff were excellent. On the Saturday evening I had booked a local restaurant for dinner ( see separate review ) and we used the local taxi firm ‘ Chris’s ‘ who is partly retained by the hotel , and he delivered us and collected us from our restaurant at a set hotel rate ( very reasonable). On checking out I had an in-depth discussion with the duty manageress about our experience and how much we had enjoyed it albeit with a couple of hiccups.

Title: fantastic staff, comfortable stay Reception: Liz at reception was fantastic and Helen at breakfast was informative made great suggestions on where to visit historical sites. Room / facilities: Room number 19 is on the ground floor and is clean. The room consists of 2 single beds, desk, chair, iron and board, stand shower (no tub) in the bath room, desk and chair. Self control air conditioning with a window that opens about 5 cm. The room does not have a fridge. Although we had to change rooms due to plumbing issues, our second room was very functional and comfortable. Parking: This is available at an additional £3.50 per night cost, car registration must be provided at check in. Whilst there are plenty of parking spaces, a car is required to get to the hotel, resulting in the spaces filling quickly. Wifi: Complementary and good speed. No validation or password required. Breakfast: The buffet breakfast is from 6.30am to 9.30am and consists of cereals, yogurt, breads (to toast) jams and spreads, fresh fruits, pastries, eggs, bacon, baked beans, sausages & harsh browns, juices, tea /coffee. Staff are very attentive to remove plates and refill food items. Nice touch having a staff member come around during breakfast offering sweet pastries. Conclusion: Centrally located “base”hotel for day trips to surrounding towns or Warwick town. Very nice staff, with a Mcdonalds outside your door step. Letdowns: No fridge, inconsistent room features. Location / Nearby: Warwick town is a 5 min drive. Other nearby towns are 10-20 mins drive away.

My partner and I had been to Coventry the night before and stayed in a 4 star Ramada hotel which - surprisingly - is also owned by Wyndham. My partner had booked the room and mistakenly booked the Northbound hotel instead of the Southbound hotel. The person on the desk at the Southbound hotel was super helpful and could not have done enough for us. When we got to the Northbound hotel, the staff here were equally helpful. This was a last-minute booking so we didn't have to drive tired and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the room!

Nice looking pub with lovely river opposite Accommodation was round the back with separate door to enter which had a key code lock where a key to enter is stored in a box this was explained to us as the pub shuts early due to low season. We returned around 11:30pm put the code in and no key was in the box we then had to call an emergency number and somebody had to travel to us to let us in a bit inconvenient for both parties I’m just glad I wasn’t on my own as it’s in the middle of nowhere Rooms were fine bed clean etc but I think it should state very clearly that the rooms share a bathroom as I didn’t notice that and would not have booked knowing this , the apar**ent they have though is lovely and has ample room and it’s own bathroom. Beer was good Breakfast next morning was fine not worth though the £25 for 2 people as you get a cooked breakfast with tea or coffee that’s it it’s just brought to you no buffet option or juice cereal etc and some of it was a bit cold Staff were fine I would stay again as to be honest what we paid wasn’t a lot but I’d prefer to pay a bit more and have my own bathroom I’d also recommend just having a coded door not a key in a box as I gather this problem will happen often
