The Queens Head

A great little stay, friendly staff and bar area, great location for the town centre, for my business trip it was perfectly fine and good value

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,

Overall, we were a bit disappointed, but since we were exhausted from our day of travel with no sleep for over 24 hours, and we were only staying one night, it served a purpose. Check-in was simple enough, but our interactions with any staff was only to pay and be handed the key. There was no real effort to make you feel welcome. Room didn’t seem to have been cleaned since the previous guests. Yes, there was fresh bed linen and towels, but the bin hadn’t been emptied and the toilet paper roll was half used with the empty roll still sitting on the toilet tank. One bath towel had brown stains on it. It’s the little things that matter. Probably the most bizarre and annoying thing was the bright green exit sign above the door (with no obvious way to turn it off). It lit up the whole room with an eerie glow all night. On the plus side, the room was relatively quiet and bed was quite comfortable. (But remember, we WERE exhausted, so we probably would have slept well on a bed of nails. All in all, it was okay for a rest stop, but I’d think long and hard before making it your base of operations for a longer visit.

Grumpily shown to our room. Room smelled mouldy. Beds too hard.

Friendly staff. Nice pub. Room all fine - fitted my needs. Did not have breakfast.
