Hotel in need of refurbishment, appears to be half abandoned, no personality.
Room basic, last residents towels left in bathroom, mirror smeared. Bed was two single mattresses pushed together to make a double with ridge felt in middle. Toilet flush broken and kept filling.
A real shame as the area hotel is in is a very advantages spot for Stratford Leamington And area

I’d come back.
Stayed for one night as we were attending a concert at nearby Warwick. We arrived before our check-in time, but after a coffee we were allowed access to the room early. The room was lovely and clean with crisp white sheets and fluffy white towels. The bed was a little too soft for my liking but that’s personal preference. The bathroom was a little dated, but perfectly clean, although it had no bin in it. Also there was no hairdryer in the room, but possibly could have been provided if asked for.
The staff were very friendly, helpful and accommodating. A very acceptable place to stay and I would recommend if you just need to basics of somewhere clean to lay your head with no fancy extras.

Good overnight stopover
Unusually they do not provide shampoo, shower gel etc so bear in mind you must bring your own, ditto coffee; they provided two sachets of coffee but no decaffeinated. A good overnight stop though between the M1, M6 and M40.

Great place
I really enjoyed my stay here and will definitely stay again. Only thing I would say is that the carpet wasn’t hoovered but honestly it wasn’t the biggest deal and I just didn’t walk around barefoot.

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!
Absolutely disgusting hotel. If we weren’t tied for the night we would have been away! Everything close by was booked.
3 rooms we went in to get one partially ok! The bed was the worst bed I think I have ever lay on! The cleanliness was vile. Hairs in bath! The dust was an inch thick! It’s the worst place I have ever had to stay. After checking in there was no way we were going to eat there so we ventured into Kenilworth

Good considering the price
The hotel gets mixed reviews.
For my purposes (single traveller, 1 night business trip) it was very good especially for the price. I had a newly refurbished room with king sized bed. The room had plenty of space, and was very clean. Lots of parking on the hotel in a safe area. Staff were very pleasant and welcoming.
I'd say the hotel is being gradually upgraded to a budget, which given the cost of my room is fine for me. There was no chair / desk which is slightly annoying when on a business trip, also strangely no bedside table or similar.
Location: it is about 1.5 miles walk into the centre of town. I quite enjoyed this, and got a bus back; the bus stop is right outside hotel, and you get live bus times on the Stagecoach app
These were minor issues for me, everything was good and I would stay again if doing the same trip

Recommend for short stay.
A large recently renovated conference type hotel with economic weekend rates.
Clean, tidy and comfortable for an overnight stay.
Only downside was a small bar with bottled drinks only and a very minimal restaurant menu.
A short two mile drive to Kenilworth provided an abundance of food and drinks.

You’re only going to a hotel like this to get a good night sleep. And that is not what happened at this hotel. The bed is dreadful two single beds pushed together with waterproof mattresses and a very thin sheet over the top which is not fitted. It was the most uncomfortable night sleep I’ve ever had. The only thing that was going was the shower.

Just OK
This Hotel was OK, that’s all I can say.
The bedrooms and bathrooms were a bit tired.
The bed consisted of 2 singles pushed together but the duvet was from a smaller bed so did not fit.
Bathroom sink did not have a plug and bath surface was peeling
The breakfast was just ok
