Hotels near hill farm dassett, Stratford-upon-Avon

The hotel is generally good and the staff are attentive, but we would suggest avoiding the restaurant.  The hotel doesn't warrant a 4* with areas showing wear and tear such as water-damaged wood, mouldy seal in the bathroom, broken window locks, etc.  Our room was not ready when we arrived, so we were given a drinks voucher. After being advised our room was ready, we arrived at the room to find the maid still cleaning the room. The room included basic tea and coffee facilities and toiletries.  The pool/spa is limited and has a cold pool, a steam room, a sauna, and a gym.  We had booked into the restaurant for an evening meal, but when we arrived there was a table complaining about the food. They had sent their food back to the kitchen twice, and the staff were suggesting they send it back again. They walked out of the restaurant. Based on this, we thought we would order something that was pretty safe, so we ordered a burger and a chicken. However, the meat tasted cheap and of poor quality. The restaurant is charging gastro prices, but the quality is nothing better than Wetherspoons or worse. Again, the puddings were basic, with a vegan coconut ice cream that had an odd texture to it and a sticky toffee pudding that was no better than a cheap microwave pud. In our opinion, the staff were inappropriately dressed, with one waitress having such a short skirt that every time she moved you got to see more than you wanted. The bar staff were assisting in the restaurant, and one barman was dressed in hip-style jeans, which kept falling down. Although all very attentive and polite, it seemed that the hotel as a whole had very limited staff, with everyone just mucking in.  The breakfast was not much better than our evening meal. We arrived at 9.30am to find the milk, pastries, hot water, etc. had run dry. There was a selection of hot food, but once again the meat tasted cheap. The main waitress was incredibly young and either didn't communicate or spoke so incredibly quietly that you could not hear what she said.  At check out, we were not asked how our stay had been, and we felt that everything was done to avoid such communication.

Excellent hotel in a super location, within easy reach of all the centre attractions especially the RSC. Interesting chice of rooms as the building has been stubstantially and very tastefully restored, we opetd for a contemporary room as they have lift service. Lovely staff, we had breakfast, excellent and swift service and great choices. Not the cheapest accommodation (there is car parking at additional cost) but if you ant to give yourself a treat, this is highly recommended. I will review the Woodman restaurant elsewhere.

My Partner and I stopped here for the weekend. It took some time to decide on this hotel when booking due to all of the reviews etc on the different hotels in the vicinity. We were not disappointed from the first iteration at the front desk with a lovely lady who was super helpful. The room itself was clean and the bed very comfortable indeed. The food in the restaurant was in my personal opinion over priced, but there are plenty of places to eat out just a short walk away. The location is perfect to enjoy the river and the town all within an easy walking distance. The car park is not the biggest and works on a first come first served set up. However we managed to get a spot without any trouble, although I am sure this would not have been the case at peaks times of the year. All in all though a thoroughly pleasant experience!

The service was great! There was an error with room allocation and as the booked room was not available, we got upgraded to a suite which was wonderful as we were celebrating a special milestone birthday. The dinner at the Trevellyn Restaurant was beyond expectation as we were vegetarian and the vegetarian meal prepared by the chef was awesome. The hotel decor itself looked a little tired although it added to the authentic look of the listed building. It was a hot weekend during our stay and although there was no air conditioning, a small fan was provided which made a little difference when sleeping at night. The gardens needed some upkeep and it would have been lovely if the fountains had been working. Overall we did enjoy our stay and look forward to coming back again after it has gone through some upgrading and refurbishing.

We stayed here 3 weeks ago and wanted to bring friends from Scotland to visit Stratford this last weekend, but unfortunately the Arden was fully booked. We came for dinner, as we knew how good it had been when we were guests. All I can say is fabulous! The restaurant & bar staff were all so pleasant & attentive. Alex was one of our waiters and has to be one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met - he read that our group had a sense of humour & made us all giggle. He’s a massive credit. The food was just ace, and I definitely recommend the scallops to start, and the Ribeye. We’ll definitely be back, thanks all 🙂

We had a lovely stay here, the facilities are really good. We enjoyed the pool and gym areas, there’s outdoor games to play and the grounds are beautiful. However, the service leaves a lot to be desired. A lot of the staff are very young and whilst friendly the method of service is very reactive (we noticed this in a few other reviews). Lots of glasses and plates being left around, dirty tables not being cleaned whilst groups of staff are stood in the corner chatting. I wouldn’t mind this as much if it wasn’t a 4/5 star hotel. Often staff would forget what you’d ask for and you’d be waiting ten minutes for a spoon or milk with your tea. Whilst the food is lovely it is fairly overpriced - this didn’t bother us as much as we had dinner credit included but I wouldn’t have eaten there without credit. Having said that, we had a great meal in the restaurant and the staff provided a pudding as a surprise for my birthday which was a lovely treat! Overall, we would return to stay again - but don’t expect 5* service.

超級滿意！前台很友善禮貌，trip上下單成了兩個單人床的房也換成了雙人床房。景色完美完全不想離開窗前，早餐很豐富 feldon特色的培根好吃。晚餐相對來説不是我喜歡的類型但兩晚的服務體驗也很好。雖然錯過了官方訂2住3的活動，但總體很滿意。可能以後紀念日還會再來。

I've stayed at this hotel four times, and unfortunately, I've consistently been disappointed with the housekeeping service. Each time, the room was never topped up with essentials, and the bins were left full, even when we put the ”clean my room” tag out. This lack of attention from housekeeping has been frustrating. However, when I reported the issue to reception during my most recent stay, Rejo from the reception team immediately took action. He personally came to our room and cleaned it thoroughly, ensuring everything was in order and making our stay much more comfortable. His prompt response and dedication to resolving the issue were greatly appreciated.

Altogether very satisfactory, lovely position for accessing both town and theatre. Excellent food from the bar menu and a very comfortable stay.
