Overnight Stay at The Arden Hotel, Stratford Upon Avon
My wife and myself booked an overnight stay at The Arden Hotel using a voucher. It entitled us to an upgrade to a superior room and evening dinner.
The room had a king size bed, plenty of storage space and comfortable furniture. The bathroom was very spacious and had a roll top bath and a large walk in shower.
The restaurant menu was extensive and the food and the service was excellent.
The staff were friendly and the service was good overall.
Worth a visit - more than once
Food. That's my number one memory. Yes, the Arden Hotel is well situated to visit all that Stratford on Avon has to offer. But you do build up a healthy appetite after walking around town and visiting all the Shakespeare related homes, museums and theatres. And that is where the excellent restaurant comes in. Looking at the full price a la carte, via the web site, you may think "looks expensive". But there are a whole range of offers and deals available. Free Afternoon tea (full on sandwiches and cakes as well as scones and clotted cream...) on arrival. Welcome drink. 30 off your food for evening meal. Free wine on day 2. So, takes a good 15 to 20% off your bill. And the food is exquisite.
Much Ado About the Arden Hotel
My wife and I recently stayed at the Arden Hotel for one night as we had matinee tickets for much ado about nothing at the RSC.
Parking was extremely easy and convenient and although we were too early to check-in to our room, as we were so close to the theatre, we managed to check-in during the halftime interval of the RSC performance. Our overnight deal included dinner and breakfast and both meals were excellent with very personable service and extremely tasty food.
The location of the Arden Hotel could not be better and our room could not have been more comfortable , though to be picky, the bathroom was a little tired.
My wife and I enjoyed a thoroughly, relaxing stay at the Arden Hotel, and we look forward to returning in the very near future.
Thank you to all the staff.
