I am often in Stratford on business and normally have a choice between The Thistle and The Falcon hotels. I usually stay at The Falcon at least 20 times a year. Initially I avoided The Falcon hotel as the period exterior led me to believe that this was going to be a dark, oppressive hotel. I was gladly proved wrong... more

Booked through hotels.com for £67 per night. The room was comfortable, clean with tea & coffee making facilities and toiletries in the bathroom. It was uncomfortably warm with no AC and of course the windows didn't open much but we managed to grab a fan left in the hallway which helped. Breakfast was terrible on the first day, the staff... more

Do not book this hotel online if you want a guarantee that you will actually stay there! I didn't get past the reception! As another reviewer on this site has warned, the hotel overbooks. I booked via the hotel's own website and this didn't guarantee a room, despite booking SEVEN MONTHS in advance! We planned our night away as a... more

Very good 3 star hotel in great central location. No problem with parking, all very straightforward. Rooms are very comfortable and more than adequate for this standard of hotel. The only disappointment was the service at breakfast. The first morning was acceptable although a little slow. However, the second morning it was appalling. There was no hostess to meet and... more

We had a really enjoyable stay at this hotel, we were in the modern part of the hotel which from the outside is pretty charmless(only seen from the car park) but our room was newly refurbished and really well appointed and spotlessly clean. The bathroom was lovely, the bed was extremely comfy and the room was a great size. We... more

I have stayed at The Falcon many times over the years. I was pleased to see that renovations had taken place in the rear part of the hotel. I should mention there are 2 parts to this hotel, the old and the new! I have stayed in both parts and if you like modern facilities and 4 square walls the... more

The hotel is a mix of old and new, with rooms in the old part of the hotel accessed via low beamed corridors and uneven floors - what you expect from a 16th century inn. Our room in the old part of the hotel was contemporary, clean and well equipped. It faced the main road and so did suffer slightly... more

We arrived on Wednesday 30th July for a 3 night stay to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary, which we booked through Lastminute.com. After checking into our room, which we upgraded to a garden room/executive we were very disappointed at the cleanliness of it and smell. Within minutes of making a phone call to reception we were being moved to another... more

I recently stayed at this hotel with my partner for two nights in July. We had previously visited the hotel in June 2007 and loved it then so we were pleasantly surprised when we went back to find out there had been a £2.5million pound refurbishment on the hotel! It's even more gorgeous now, very relaxing, with lovely gardens to... more
