 Warwick Castle Hotel and Knight's Village

Warwick Castle Hotel and Knight's Village

10/10 Excellent
"This is one of the best hotels we have stayed in as a family. The rooms are spacious, considering all aspects of children’s needs, small toilet seats, finger guards on the doors, and once our room door is closed, you can’t hear any other families, not even corridor noise. The perfect end to a birthday spent at the castle for our 9 year old. Every member of staff made her feel special from balloons in the room to singing happy birthday to her. And Warwick castle itself full of beautiful pieces of history and fun things to do and see for all the family. The only thing to mention is the kings tavern food wasn’t the best and price of the all you can eat buffet put us off, so we all opted for pizza twists potato wedges and a freshly cooked burger from the grill, the best burger ever!! We were expecting a little more extravaganza for the evening entertainment but all in all a great stay. Breakfast is included in your overnight stay and the breakfast chef out did herself! Absolutely delicious, cooked well, and hot."
