The Best Hotel in Stratford-upon-Avon and the Heart of England, England

Background Illustration for Hotels

Stratford and Warwick have accommodations to fit every wallet. Because Stratford is so popular with theatergoers, book well ahead. Most hotels offer discounted two- and three-day packages. Near Stratford, a number of top-notch country hotels guarantee discreet but attentive service—at fancy prices. Birmingham's hotels, geared to the convention crowd and often booked well in advance, are mostly bland and impersonal, but a few are sophisticated; look for weekend discounts. In the countryside, many ancient inns and venerable Regency-style houses have been converted into hotels.

Crowne Plaza Stratford-upon-Avon, an IHG Hotel

$$ | Bridgefoot, Stratford-upon-Avon, CV37 6YR, England

This spick-and-span, good-value hotel’s selling points are its excellent location near the center of the historic district and views across the river. It also has plenty of modern amenities and large, light-filled rooms, but the bathrooms are a bit of a squeeze. Ask for rooms away from the elevators, as they can be a bit noisy. Staff are friendly, and children are welcomed enthusiastically. The hotel is often full of businesspeople and conferences, though there are some nice touches, such as the Terrace Bar, where you can enjoy drinks or dinner, and the bright Riverside Restaurant.

Pros

  • Convenient location for business or visiting
  • Nice leisure facilities, including pool
  • Free dinners for kids

Cons

  • Not much old England charm
  • Big and impersonal
  • A bit overrun with conferences
