Close to all the main attractions
The hotel is very well situated just across the river from the theatre and close to the centre of town with its many attractions. Rooms are large and comfortable and well serviced. My only slight reservation is the noisy air conditioning system that was directly outside my room (67) and that kicked in around 6am. It was not possible to fully close the room windows to minimise noise,

Great location but some flaws
Great location, very handy for town centre and theatre. Nice large room and comfortable bed, though the bathroom needed a bit of a refresh. Breakfast was okay but not top quality and I particularly missed having fresh fruit options.

Perfect Stratford Hotel
Superb location just a few minutes walk from the river and town centre. A lovely quiet hotel with the added bonus of ample parking. Rooms are spacious, with a separate snug and large bathroom. All in all a great place to stay.

Handy stopover
Stayed here as a stopover on the way back from Portsmouth. Hotel was ok, room slightly tired an could’ve done with a bit of a refresh. Things like cracked sink. Good breakfast. If staying use the pub next door (part of the hotel also) much better value. Chargeable parking.

Great time!
I had a great time for two nights at the Swan’s Nest. Great location on the Avon and a right by the RSC. There is no elevator and the common rooms are ready for some sprucing for sure.

A lovely hotel once we found it. Lots of corridors but all clean. Odd shaped room but facilities were good. Breakfasts were OK and bar good. Reception area spacious and comfortable. Town centre very nearby as is the River Avon.
