The Arden Hotel

What a lucky, last-minute find! Wow! So sad we were only there for 1 night! Amazingly placed hotel for Stratford. Walking distance to all amenities and tourist attractions. All of the staff, from the cleaner, waiting staff (slender, small, long dark haired young lady, very sweet, didn't catch her name sadly, that looked after us for dinner), Receptionists (day and evening) and the Manager, were ALL so helpful and friendly. We had a problem with the shower in our room (cold water tap broken) so could not shower the night of our stay before dinner. We reported this en-route to dinner and, whilst eating, the Manager came to us to inform us he had made a temporary fix to it with tools which allowed us to shower later. He also assured us that he would get Maintenance involved after our departure. The atmosphere at this hotel is so relaxed and welcoming - I would not hesitate to recommend, and will DEFINITELY be staying again! 1 night was not long enough. The room was huge, very comfortable and clean with lovely little touches like a fridge with water, fresh milk and snacks like popcorn, pretzels and biscuits! We looked out directly at the RSC Theatre also! Our daughter slept on the sofa bed and practically had a room to herself, with her own TV too. There were also apples and a fruit knife for us to eat! Not had THAT before! Breakfast was also lovely - fresh cooked to order - beautiful poached eggs! Plenty of choice. Thank you for a lovely stay! We WILL be back!

Great attention to detail. Excellent in every way.

The hotel was clean, the staff were very friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast served full English and continental. We had a peaceful sleep as the hotel was very quiet. There are nice treats in the room for guests like biscuits, popcorn and water. Staff were helpful and charged our electric car overnight for our next day journey. Would definitely go back again.

Perfectly located for the RSC Theatre, having visited to see the Mad King play. Lovely room and staff couldn’t do more for us. Fantastic breakfast too!
