Very impressive entrance and front of the hotel, very Stratford! Our rooms were as far away from reception as it was possible to be, but you can park right outside. There’s a lock on the main door which requires your room key to gain entry, would be nice if they actually activated this rather than just leaving it unlatched for anyone to wander in. Rooms were really good, the biggest bed I have ever seen! Table and two chairs, dresser, ample wardrobe and modern bathroom. The water fountain in the hallway was a nice bonus, especially with the jug in the room. A big plus to have Elemis toiletries provided as these are what I use at home, but maybe add a body cream, seemed odd to provide shampoo but no conditioner too . Cleanliness was spot on, including the daily service. The hotel has a cosy bar and lounge but if you’re in the 200 block it’s about half a mile walk from your room and drinks are very pricey. We didn’t have breakfast on site as it was £18 per person at the discounted rate, you’re so close to town with numerous alternatives. As it was a birthday treat I had a treatment at the spa, which was eye wateringly expensive, literally over three times the price of anywhere else in town, but can’t fault the treatment and atmosphere. Maybe offer hotel guests a discounted treatment? A big selling point for us was the swimming pool and gym, both really nice and made full use of during our stay, but do get very busy! The hotel is dog friendly at £15 per night but not s

Weekend couple stay.

We had a lovely long weekend stay. The hotel has lots of character . Set in a great location for visiting the area. All the staff were friendly and the breakfast choice and quality is excellent. We stayed in the coach house, a great size room with lots of facilities . Wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Disliked: Amenities
Very disappointing stay. The room was shabby and the breakfast basic. The room needs updating and electric sockets installing near the bed instead of at the table. This was very inconvenient particularly for mobile phone charging. On the second day of my stay there was a large wedding party which completely took over the hotel and all the public areas inside and out. As a result, there was nowhere to sit so was virtually confined to my room as I was unable to enjoy the hotel’s facilities. Also, some of the wedding party was on the corridor and it was very noisy in the early hours. It should’ve been pointed out to other guests that there would be limited access to public areas on that day. I did mention this as I checked out and the receptionist, though pleasant, said that there was still access to public areas. What she failed to understand was that neither I nor the wedding party wanted to be involved with each other. From now on I will always ask a question if there is a private function at any time during my stay. This was meant to be a very special trip for me, but I was bitterly disappointed. My two constructive emails to McDonald’s have been ignored, which I find rude and a sad indictment of falling standards.
