Location is fantastic service was poor at breakfast
Character hotel, and our room was large and quiet for the centre of Stratford. Parking an extra £10. Breakfast was a bit of a downer as service was really slow although the quality of the food was fine once you got it.

What Fun!
Stratford’s Shakespeare Hotel is just too much fun! Located near Shakespeare’s birthplace and just up the street from the home where he died, the Hotel is perfectly situated. The building itself is several hundred years old, which accounts for the quirkiness of the hotel. Our room was definitely slanted, or sloped, downwards, but that was not a problem. I especially loved that many of the rooms are named after the characters and places in Shakespeare’s plays; some rooms were even named after the plays themselves. The staff was delightful, and all in all, the hotel was just as wonderful an experience as our visit to Stratford!

Great Location
I have stayed at the Shakespeare on many occasions over the past twenty-five years and have stayed there through several ownership changes. I wasn’t sure what to expect on this trip because it has become a French-chain-owned hotel, but I was pleasantly surprised that the charm of the hotel has been maintained, while also updating the hotel to provide internet access at a very reasonable rate. I had forgotten to print out a confirmation for an event in London and was afraid that I would forfeit the prepaid event, but it was easily accessible via email at the hotel, then forwarded [to the hotel]and printed at no charge. I have always loved this hotel and will continue to stay here, especialy at hotels.com rates, whenever I visit Stratford-upon-Avon!
