This is a very well-run hotel. The room was comfortable and well-furnished, everything worked, the linens were nice and the bed itself comfortable and high quality. Quiet, efficient, well-appointed. Thoughtful, helpful staff. Much appreciated. And it's a five-minute walk, across a footbridge over the Avon, from the Shakespeare theatre.

The location of the property, in close proximity to restaurants, theatre and town, was a real bonus. The restaurant on site was very good. Rooms were large and comfortable. Parking on site another bonus
