We particularly enjoyed the location, which was just across the river from the theatre and the centre of town was also very accessible. We liked the appearance of the hotel, the gardens, rooms, furnishings etc. The staff were both professional and helpful and the spa and pool excellent. It's a shame that the car parking is an extra charge, as the hotel is already far from inexpensive, but our short stay was idyllic.

A lovely hotel with fabulous bar staff - attentive and skilled in cocktail making. All in all, we had a really enjoyable stay. What wasn't just so great was that we were in Room 12 - a very traditional room with gorgeous beams etc - really lovely - but it was close to reception and at night the staff had music playing which for some crazy reason fed right into our room. My husband had to go down and ask them politely to put it off as it was too loud to allow us to sleep. This was met with a mixed response which seemed a bit unfair, we did ask very nicely. Anyway, they did duly turn it off for which we were grateful. The bed was really comfy so we eventually slept very soundly! The only other point I'd make is that the position of the hotel is right on a very, very busy roundabout so you do need to be careful getting over to the bridge and into the town centre. That's obviously not the hotel's fault, but if you're not nimble, or you have young children, that might be an issue, especially at night.

Great location and good breakfast. Toiletries were very limited (no conditioner or body lotion). When we opened the window in the room there was a really loud sound (like a generator so we had to keep the window closed), Service in reception was slow. I wouldn’t stay here again as sure you can get better hotels in the area for the price.

The room (4 poster) was so cold. The radiators did not work and the aircon/heater fan just pumped cool air even after turning the temp to 26 degrees. We informed the staff about the issue and they brought an electric heater in. After two hours we were still wearing coats, so informed the staff again. The staff bought another electric heater to the room and this then heated the room. The sitting room attecged to the 4 poster room was unusable because this remained cold.

We stayed there one night. The staff were very friendly and the building had a lot of character. A few small negatives were having to pay extra for parking, no electric sockets near the bed side tables, no coffee machine (I have instant coffee) and the beer choice in the bar was quite old fashioned. However, everything else was great. Nice big pool. Really good location.

Stay was OK. Few drinks and light dinner in the bar. The full (expensive) resturant menu was also in the bar, which was a little over the top. Something lighter would have been appropriate. Breakfast was ok, not great. £4 for a small luke warm lattee was not impressive and the fruit selection on the buffett was sliced water melon and a mixed berry mix that can only be described as one of the sourest things on earth ever created by man. Pretty poor.

Much ado about nothing!
Location is excellent for Shakespeare theatre and town. Beware you will receive a last minute notice that to park in the hotel carpark it will cost you £7 per day as a guest EACH car. So if like me you share a room with a friend with their own car that's £14 a day. Breakfast is poor with additional cost for items other hotels give as standard. Buffet very limited. Room ok bedding and towels supplied. Lacked finishing touches e.g. paintwork not completed. Service lacked the warmth of being welcoming and aiming to please with the exception of the young lady in charge of the breakfast room who valiantly held it together despite wrong orders sent out! Did not partake of evening meal. This hotel is punching above it's weight. Promises much but under delivers. £24 each for in room breakfast is aimed at hapless tourists from across the Pond. Was going to comment to the receptionist but the couple in front of us did such a good hatchet job on their experience I didn't feel the need.

Disappointment. Misleading advertising
We chose this hotel for a visit for our 30th wedding anniversary. The pictures of the frontage of the hotel in all links we loojedcat looked stunning with beautiful grounds. Arrived early so registered car details. 7.00 a day parking or free for blue badge holders. Came back and checked in and we were in 200 block. We were given directions to the rear of the hotel. We then found we were in a completely sererate block to the hotel in what can only be described as butlins holiday chalet style block and rooms. We had to walk across the garden to get to the main hotel as it wasnt even a part of if. The key wouldnt work to open the blocks main door, so a trip back across the green to get it sorted. The room was no better than a premier inn basic room, yet we paid 200.00 for this room for one night. That didnt even include breakfast. The room was quite dated and overlooked the rear carpark. At no point anywhere during the booking process or in the literature did it state there is a seperate room block. You are fully under the impression that you would be staying in the majestic looking main hotel. So if youre considering a stay here id check with hotel before booking as we were SO disappointed. In fact my husband was furious. Staff were excellent but just said oh sorry when we mentioned it. Its false advertising and there booking information needs a serious update.

I have stayed at alveston many times. But this time was shocking. Bed sheets dirty. No soap items in bathroom. I was upset and angry. I paid over £100. I would like a refund or a free stay at the hotel as this was unacceptable. I ha e stayed many times and spent a fortune here. This was bad experience this time. I don't like making staff feel bad in front of other customers. I have also sent a letter to you. I am in Stratford this wed. Thur and also next week. Many thanks. Matthew Hadley

Front desk service very poor, not welcoming and can barely manage the bare minimum. No shampoo in our "deluxe" suite, also only 1 bathrobe (2 of us). Had to collect them from reception (!) Didnt occur to them to have housekeeping deliver to our room. Room itself very disappointing. Luxury suite tuened out to be a small room with 2 armchairs and a tv, a spare bedroom with single bed (not needed nor requested) bedroom and an en suite bathroom that was so tired it was close to unacceptable. Damp on ceiling, broken floor tiles, extractor fan not working. Definitely not 4 star, hugely overpriced for what we got, in need of radical overhaul of rooms amd staff training. Shout out to the lady in front of house at breakfast. Welcoming and highly professional. Should put her in charge of reception. On check out wasnt asked if i enjoyed my stay, cant say i was surprised. Take a look at the torn and threadbare Union Flag flying at the front of the hotel. Pretty much sums it up.

Disappointing Filth
Room wasn’t ready on arrival, we were told to wait in the bar (barman was very miserable) and that someone would come and find us as soon as it was ready, didn’t happen! Finally got the keys around 4pm, dropped our bags and went to use the pool which was FREEZING, returned to the room to get ready for dinner and noticed it was filthy, blood on the side of the bed, chewing gum on the tap, hair all over the bath, dust on every surface, half the lights didn’t work, towels were old and frayed. Breakfast was unremarkable, very miserable looking and not particularly nice. We paid almost £300 for a suite, the hotel insulted us with a £30 refund and £7 back for parking! Unfortunately for them I book ALOT of hotels and was in fact staying to survey the hotel ahead of potentially booking the whole place for a huge VIP event next year, needless to say I will not be holding any events there!
