Slightly off the beaten track but not far from other amenities in the area - great positioning if you are going to Stoneleigh Exhibition site. Nice bar area and a great breakfast with plenty of choice. Room was comfortable and spacious - even though I had gone for a single room - also not too far from the castle if this is on your places to visit in the area.

The parking for the site is not clear and is hidden at the back of the property and only has room for about 5 cars - I was lucky but it was not designed with modern cars in mind. The room that I stayed in had been an office or such like prior to being used as a bedroom - plugs right next to the bed on the wall highlighted this was a minor grumble but the main two issues that the property needs to address is the non-existent free wi-fi and no food served on site in the evening - when you have travelled some distance you do not want to go far - had to go looking for a restaurant/pub.

I like the atmosphere and the location. I like that it's a pub and not a hotel. Breakfast is great as well and it's always served cheerily. Bathrooms have flannels and individual bottles for shower gel and shampoo unlike most hotels which have gone over to large pump action dispensers which jam and/or are a faff to use. Bed rooms have tea and coffee making stuff and biscuits!

Most of the rooms only have stools I.e. no chairs with a back on them. So working at the desk (those that have a desk that is) is difficult. Parking is limited.

This small hotel has lovely decor, is a real ale bar, and is in the old town part of Kenilworth, with the castle and abbey grounds easy walking distance. Breakfast was very good, and I had booked a basic room (No. 3) but the size was perfectly adequate, shower powerful, manager and staff were friendly. I had thought the noise from the bar may get to the room, but I was wrong - we had a very peaceful night. To note, the parking was accessed from Fancott Drive at the back of the hotel. We ate at the Abbey Fields by Chef and Brewer, almost next door, which was good.

Can't think of anything.

The breakfast was very good. Unusually for me I had a cooked breakfast (full English) and the poached eggs were very nicely done, the bacon was thick and not surrounded by white residue (it was good quality). Breakfast was served in the bar which, at 08.00, did not smell of ale. Well done on that point. Cleanliness was excellent. The bar must be commented on. A decent choice of cask ales, all well kept and served with a head on. The bar was very busy so that tells you a lot.

The room was very comfortable and I slept well but don't take a cat as you won't be able to swing it.

Location Lovely atmosphere in bar- chic but comfortable surroundings really enjoyed it and added to the whole experience Staff happy, helpful and friendly Room clean

Unfortunately, the bed was uncomfortable and maybe needs a "mattress topper"/new mattress or similar. You can still feel the join of the two singles put together, which probably doesn't help. (Wouldn't stop us from returning overall though!)

An absolutely beautiful place to stay in the Old Town. The staff were welcoming and kind and our room was just perfect. Everything about this place was gorgeous. We also had a delicious breakfast of fresh eggs, fruit and coffee and the chef was kind enough to pack up a sausage sandwich to take with us on our hike. Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone.

The room was extremely clean and comfy and it was very easy to check in! The pub it is attached to has a really lovely vibe, although it was so popular/busy we did not actually get a chance to sit in. The rooms are nicely set back from the main part of the pub, which also meant it was a lot quieter than we had expected, which was a nice bonus!

Lovely old world charm with tastefully decorated and comfortable rooms. Good value for money and very clean.

The shower in the king size room was a little dated, but this didn’t spoil the stay in anyway. The pine furniture needs replacing or refinishing but, again, this is a minor detail that didn’t impact the quality of the stay. The vegetarian breakfast was disappointing- vegan/vegetarian sausages would have been nice. In addition, there was no alternative to cows milk - oat or almond milk would have been welcomed!

This was such a fabulous hotel for a reunion of 9 of us 'mature' ex-colleagues. Set in Kenilworth old town the property was highly characterful, clean and comfortable hotel. The staff were very welcoming, friendly and accommodating. The Old Bakery is very popular with locals and the pub was buzzing every evening - though it's not in the least bit raucous and the staff are very hot on managing closing time promptly and efficiently, so local and hotel residents are not disturbed. There is a lovely, well-tended courtyard area at the rear. Though they don't do meals during the day or evening, a lovely selection of hot and cold breakfast foods are available to choose from.

Staff were lovely, welcoming, relaxed & helpful. The bar had a relaxed feel & a buzz about it. We ate a delicious breakfast in there the next morning. The room was well equipped, comfortable and clean. Very nice firm bed. Parking easy either behind the property in their car park, or in the public car park opposite.

No issues.
