Highlight of my stay: nice, clean and bright dining area with complete sets of cutleries, plates, pots and pans etc to cook or heat food. It's an ideal gathering place if you stay in different rooms like me. Plenty of unisex bathrooms and toilets if you can't get en-suite rooms - clean most of the time. Reception was friendly and...

Nicely setup YHA with catering and self-catering. Lots a open rooms for TV, internet, ganmes and reading. Bedrooms were OK, but bunk beds were old wooden ones that creaked a lot and we were woken by the kitchen staff turning on the radio loud. OK if you like a wake up call. otherwise, the staff were very friendly and helpful More

I really get the feel that this hostel is for those who have cars-which would basically rule out many young travelers, so much for the "Y" in YHA.

This hostel has really friendly and helpful staff but its biggest problem is location. It's a long way from the centre of Stratford with an infrequent bus service, especially at the weekends and evenings which makes it difficult for travellers without transport - taxis are very expensive. Also, the showers are tiny, not unisex and there was no hot water.... More

The location of the hostel is probably the biggest negative, it really isn't within comfortable walking distance of Stradford upon Avon, particularly at night, it's not an option. Staff friendly, food okay, grounds very spacious. Rooms and bathrooms average. TV Room available. More

This hostel is an old mansion that they renovated. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and there is a lot of information about events in town. I say in town because the hostel is miles away from the town center. My roommate told me that it was walking distance, but I didn't have clear directions on how to get... More

I spent two weeks travelling around England in August. It was my first hostel experience, and it was by far my favourite. The building itself is gorgeous - the photos on the YHA website do not lie. There's a spacious and comfortable sitting room with pool tables, a bar, and a large dining room where free breakfast is provided and... More
