The Arden Hotel in Stratford-on-Avon

We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay here. Really made welcome and would definitely stay again.

Wonderful experience, very accommodating. First introduction from Pete, checked my dinner bookings for the weekend and gave good advice. The dining experience was excellent, very attentive staff, interesting menu, and the food was delicious. I arrived a little early for Sunday breakfast to the kitchen’s surprise, however the head waiter brought me a coffee while I waited and the chef accommodated me as soon as he could and cooked me Eggs Benedict, which I considered to be absolutely perfect poached eggs. The stay was a pleasure, and I would like to thank all the amazing staff I met during my stay. I will look forward to future visits. Thank you to all at the Arden Hotel.

Staff were very friendly. Good service. Lovely afternoon tea.

I would have given 5 stars for service, but the drinksxwe ordered were not delivered. Our food arrived, still no drinks. Went to check why, they'd not been added to the order. When they did arrive, both food and drinks were very good.

My most recent stay was a little below par, but this is generally an excellent hotel.

Not stayed here but WANT TO with our doggo's but boy oh boy , their website is a nightmare ! You click on whichever kind of room you want to LOOK AT ( master ) and nothing 🤔 just a small stock photo 👎 we wanted to look at the "master" rooms that are available but to no avail so we stopped looking 🙄. web page needs some serious attention to "attract people" and not put them off !

We booked into the Arden on the off chance they had a room, from the moment we walked in all the staff were amazing, we were shown our room which was immaculate and warm, we booked in for dinner bed and breakfast which was very reasonably priced, our evening meal was perfectly cooked, my pigeon starter was delicious, my plate at the end looked like it didn't need washing, I'd licked it clean, my duck main course was also perfectly cooked and seasoned, there was no salt and pepper pots on our table which tells me the chefs no what they are doing...I can't praise this hotel enough and the staff that work here too..thanks for duch a great (short) stay...we will be back.

We didn't stay but we visited for an afternoon tea, The service was excellent throughout, the food lovely and the facilities clean and well kept. We couldn't have asked for more

This hotel is in an amazing location. It’s opposite the theatre! The service is great. As too was breakfast. The room although comfortable is a little lacking. Would I stay here again. Yes. As the location more than makes up for any shortcomings with the room. Oh, and the fact it has a carpark is also great. You do have to pay extra to park. But if driving a long way like us it’s a good benefit to know you can park and leave the car there all weekend and walk everywhere.

The staff were helpful, friendly and respectful. Breakfast was excellent.

Wonderful central location opposite RSC theatre. Excellent breakfasts, sadly can't comment on dinner as was informed driving there that we couldn't have dinner as no chef available.

Perfect location for the theatre - great service too thanks

This was the first time we had stayed at The Arden although we have stayed in Stratford many times. We had a lovely stay and were very impressed with all aspects of the hotel and staff. Now, if you are looking for new, soundproof, box like modern rooms that are perfect in every detail this may not be the hotel for you. If you would like to stay somewhere with character, personality and some traditional class then I would definitely recommend. Our room was spacious and comfortable with a superking bed and seating area. The bathroom was large with separate walk in shower and free-standing bath. We dined at the restaurant and had breakfast. I have reviewed food in more detail in other parts of my review, but in short the food was excellent. What I would really like to stress is the level of service and welcome we received from all the staff at The Arden. There are many reviews written via the internet and quite often people are fast to complain but slower to compliment. I believe in credit where credit is due and we had a lovely stay at this hotel, made even better by the excellent team of staff who work there.
