Excellent facilities in this room with a well maintained bathroom and beds were very comfortable. Breakfast is very good and the staff are very friendly there. I was very surprised how quiet the room was on the ground floor next to the pub but did hear noise from the road unfortunately. You can’t hang much of your clothing in the room as we were only supplied with 2 hangers and the ceilings are low so be aware of this if you’re 6 feet tall! Apart from that I would recommend this place to anyone who just needs a basic room with a bed and bathroom.

Had a lovely stay in this very old characterful building. Yes it was noisy until closing time, but its a pub, stay up and have a drink. Welcome was friendly and no fuss. Would have loved a couple of herbal tea bags in the tea bag area but thats the only constructive feedback.

Basic room behind a pub. Nothing fancy. Was great for the one night stay with a comfortable bed and a shower. Location was excellent - just a walk away from key attractions. One nit, the WiFi doesn't reach rooms.

A great central location. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room very clean and spacious but would benefit from some improvements such as replacing the cracked hand bowl in the bathroom. Maybe not the best choice if you need a quiet venue, as there is inevitably quite a lot of noise from the pub downstairs which on our visit, the night of a big football match, did continue well beyond the promised 11.00

The hotel could not be better located. In the heart of Stratford, minutes walking from absolutely everything. And what a great room! Luminous, spacious, comfortable bed, very clean cotton linen. There's no front desk, the entrance is through the pub, but who cares? It only adds charm to this nice inn. Highly recommended,
