The Arden Hotel, Stratford-upon-Avon

The Arden sits on Waterside directly opposite the Royal Shakespeare and Swan theatres, so it's the obvious choice for a theatre break. It has 45 rooms, a brasserie and a garden bar, and it's one of the few central hotels that welcomes dogs in the bedrooms and lounges.
