I booked a one night stay at The Shakespeare to coincide with a RSC play. I booked a junior suite largely based upon the pictures on-site and promise of the little extra luxuries. Positives of my stay: - aesthetics of the building were beautiful and very much in keeping with Stratford Upon Avon - no more than a five minute... More

I booked this hotel in the middle of Stratford for quick getaway with my boyfriend. Having paid over £200 for a 2 ngiht stay I was honestly pretty gobsmacked and very disappointed at the room I was given. It must have been the smallest room in the hotel over looking the back carpark. You had to squeeze round the bed... More

We had great service here, the Dutch barman is a treasure and having a delightful young lady on reception named 'Penny... More

We went to the RSC so stayed for one night at the Mercure. The room was spacious and quiet, and good value. Not perfectly clean (toothpaste in the sink and on the taps) but that doesn't bother us too much. The odd thing was that the reception never answered the phone, despite us trying again and again over the 24... More

Lovely hotel full of old charm ! We have just arrived home from our one night stay at the Mercure Shakespeare. Our bedroom was amazing, infact it was more like a suite with a seperate lounge area. Plenty of space. My parents also stayed over. Their room was equally as nice but slightly smaller with a newer bathroom. Both rooms... More
