Just returned from weekend stay-our first in Stratford upon Avon. Came across the Arden after booking tickets to see a production at the RSC theatre (advert). Booked 2 nights with B&B and dinner on one night- amazing 3 days stay in the lovely and easy accessible town. Our room was ready Friday at 1pm when we arrived and we were... More

Booked a private dinning room at the Arden for my mother's 70th Birthday - it was fabulous. Food delicious, great wine selection, staff efficient and very friendly. Decor and furniture in the room luxurious and table decorations were beautifully executed to the brief. I would not hesitate to recommend it to fellow event organisers in future or clients.

The hotel is a bit a of a maze but a very stylish one. We stayed there as we were going to the theatre and it is ideal being so close to both theatres. The staff were very nice, but a bit amateur - they need more training. Our room: Linden was very stylish, with a large bathroom, but a... More

Spent a very enjoyable two night stay at the Arden hotel at the end of May. The hotels location is excellent just across from the RSC and a five minute walk into the town centre. The room we stayed in was Ash(all the rooms are named after trees) and was big enough for us as a couple. The room has... More

States for one night b&b with a number of others. The hotel is situated right across the road from the RSC - on the door step. The location for this and the centre of Stratford is ideal. The rooms are nice and clean, all with individual names. It is a bit if a maze inside and quite easy to get... More

This hotel is superbly placed for all the town's Shakespeare sites and opposite the Royal Shakespeare Theatre too. Comfortable beds, lovely bathrooms, good food and friendly staff. All in all a very good hotel.

We stayed for two nights in Cedar room. The bathroom was really spacious with a seperate shower and large bath, the products that the hotel provided were l'occitane which was very nice and our bed was very comfortable too. I would really recommend staying here when visiting Stratford as not only is the hotel fabulous, but the location is excellent... More

Excellent location just opposite the main theatre and a short walk to the Courtyard Theatre. The Scenic bus tour has a stop in Chapel Lane right alongside the hotel. (Two of the buses are wheelchair friendly when they are running.) A short walk to the town centre and the attractions that it offers. One of our party is wheelchair bound... More
