Stayed at hotel for my wives 40th birthday. Emailed the day before and was upgraded to a suite in the old building which made our stay all the better. Had breakfast and dinner there each evening and was the food was exceptional. Can't fault this hotel one bit as there was always a member of staff around to help out.... More

Me and my friend have just returned from a night's stay at Ettington Chase on the weekend. We booked a deal via travelzoo which included a 2-course evening meal, a bottle of wine and breakfast. We arrived at 11am to find that our room was ready for us to check-in, we didn't expect this and were happy to leave our... More

I took the trouble on contacting the hotel before we arrived - to check out a few points.. perhaps that's what did it? I checked there were tea making facilities - affirmative (mean tho - no biscuit!). A quiet room was assured - it was! Booked dinner for 8pm - we went in on time! Really we had a good... More

We stayed here with my parents one weekend for a nearby wedding. We got room 16 which was above the kitchens rather than at the back of the hotel and it was of a much higher standard than the one that my parents had. We enjoyed a few drinks and bar food at the hotel. The quality was excellent. We... More

Stayed there last weekend whilst visiting Stratford-on-Avon. The Ettington Chase is just like all the other Principal Hayley Hotels with the main prominence being a conference hotel which I was aware when I booked it and which does not bother me. It was quite busy due to a murder mystery weekend which seem to attract quite a number of people.... More

We had read mixed reviews about this hotel, but we're pleased when we arrived. Yes most of the hotel is a modern extension, but our room was spotless and the shower was powerful and hot. We would have liked a fridge but it really wasn't the end of the world. The staff were very friendly and we did not experience... More

I stayed here for 5 nights with my boyfriend in the run up to a family wedding. We decided to take a few days before to explore the area. As others have said the main bulk of the hotel is a newer (possibly early 90's) building rather than the older house picture shown on the website but to be honest... More

Hotel was just okay - good price for two nights with one night dinner. We upgraded to an executive room which was nicely furnished and in the main house but very small. Pool was ok - clean but lacking in any luxury. Very busy restaurant but the food for dinner and breakfast was good and plentiful. Staff were very stretched... More

We had the misfortune of booking a stay on a weekend when the hotel was hosting a wedding party - although this did not become known until we got there. From the moment we arrived until the moment we walked out of the door we suffered the hotel's lack of planning for this wedding which stretched it's staff and facilities... More

Went here as part of a Joy Swif Murder Mystery Weekend. The rooms we were allocated were straight out of the 1950's complete with a bedspread that had apparently never been washed. Overall the hotel was appalling. The staff and the managertook no responsibility at all for items missing, false charges to the room, or the quality of the accomodation.... More
