The Welcombe, Stratford-upon-Avon. NEVER AGAIN !!!

Absolutely awful. What a dreadfully grim hotel. No charm whatsoever. Presented in the restaurant in the evening with the simplistic bar menu, as a staying & paying guest, whilst all others around me with provided with an actual proper ‘Dinner Menu’, because they had apparently booked ‘before’. And check out the Gluten Free menu in the images below. Just disgraceful! Utterly shambolic customer service & attention from a completely uncaring Hotel Group.

Our go to hotel when we stay in Stratford. A historic hotel that oozes authenticity. Yes, it could do with a makeover in certain areas of the main building but these do not detract from the overall pleasantness of the stay. Excellent breakfast offering. If you plan to use the spa facilities then a small padlock is recommended to secure your belongings. Totally recommend this hotel for anyone staying in the Stratford area.

Our Christmas stay at the Welcombe Hotel was a nice break. The mansion is stunning, set in 157 acres of beautiful grounds, and if you’re lucky, you might even spot deer roaming around. The spa was good to have—the indoor pool, Swedish sauna, and outdoor vitality pool made for a nice way to unwind, and the thermal rooms were a nice touch. A very big shoutout to Sara and Muhammed, who were incredibly helpful and always welcoming. Their service really stood out. Breakfast was OK-ish—not bad, but nothing special. Christmas lunch, on the other hand, was disappointing—it felt like a missed opportunity given how nice everything else was. The bar had a good atmosphere, and I liked the local wine, but the overall drinks selection could have been better. Overall, despite the food not being great, the Welcombe Hotel was a lovely Christmas getaway—a beautiful setting, good service, and a peaceful place to relax.

THE hotel to stay in for Stratford-Upon-Avon

Imagine the pleasure of receiving a free upgrade, and then multiply it by ten! I’d been here before so I knew the gardens were exquisite, the hotel is quiet, being set back from the road, and the breakfast is superb. Last year, when I came, I had a double room, so knew what I was booking. So let me tell you about the upgrade! Not only was the room much larger, but it had a four poster bed, a massive bathroom with dual sinks and a window view out to the gardens! Perfect! Add to that there’s access to the spa, and I’d say it’s a total bargain. So much so, I had a little afternoon tea treat. This is now my go-to hotel for future stays around Stratford-Upon-Avon Town is about five minutes away by car, and car parking there is great and reasonably priced.

Great value for money, beautiful hotel

The hotel is absolutely stunning. Beautiful grounds, very relaxing bar and our apartment was very quiet, clean and comfortable. Excellent value for money. Only point lost was the breakfast which was average and food/coffee ran out due to the number of guests eating breakfast.

Poor Front Desk Staff / Great Views / Tired Hotel

I stayed 3 times in a short space of time for a business trip. I booked on Hotels.com and was never given the room type paid for, each time I was given a downgrade at what would have been a significantly less cost. Staff on the front desk were poor to say the least. However the duty manager was great speaking at breakfast the next day however this was check out morning for me. The hotel is tired, but has a great feel about it. Breakfast was good, in amazing surroundings. Gym / Pool are again tired and unclean, but serves a purpose at the price. Walls are thin (odd for such an old building) so sound is also an issue in the evening.

Not the best

Ok , food and drink grossly over priced compared to other hotels. The dining menu was terrible no steak or grill choices , ordered fish n chips which turned out to be a few frozen chips and a frozen fish , not what I would expect for a top end price. Rooms are clean but very tired. Place is under staffed. I had my team there 14 of us and they shut the bar at 9.50 even though plenty of drinks being purchased.
