From arrival were welcomed & shown to our room which was excellent. Very clean. Meals were also excellent with a good choice of menu. It didn't help only having a short stay as we would have liked to sample more from the menu. Breakfast was perfect & cooked to order. Staff were friendly & very helpful. The outside area was well kept with beautiful flowers, a lovely tranquil area for quiet contemplation. Would definitely recommend this hotel & will definitely be going again.

Disappointing
Stayed here whilst attending the nearby Midlands Air Festival. The rooms are generally prefixed with the word “superior” but there’s nothing superior about them. The room that we had was small, noisy (facing the road) and the bed was extremely uncomfortable - the mattress was clearly worn out and you could feel the springs through it. Not somewhere that we’ll be returning to

Very enjoyable stay
We enjoyed our stay at the Blue Boar. The staff were very friendly, the room was comfortable and large. The restaurant had an excellent selection of very good meals. Breakfast was good although a little early for us, it was served from 7 to 8.30. Overall we would recommend it. Very convenient for the park and ride into Stratford.

Hidden gem
Spent two nights at The Blue Boar - superb location. Mattress on first night a bit uncomfortable but moved to a second room for next night, which was excellent. Ate in restaurant on last evening and Indian platter was a revelation, which we’d recommend. Will certainly be going back.

Bad experience
Stayed for 3mights. No aircon in the rooms, extractor fan in bathroom not working and full of dust and muck. They don’t make the bed just pull the quilt over. Had an Indian meal that was sent back as was too salty.

Comfortable rooms & Great food
Great little pub/restaurant with very well kept and well appointed rooms. Being an old building the access to the bedrooms is up a narrow, steep staircase but since last year it appears the bathrooms my father and I had have been updated. Food is exceptional with wide choice of A La Carte, Indian Favourites & Pub Classics. I will definitely stay again when in the area.

Lovely place to stay and eat
We had a great two night stay and enjoyed breakfast and evening meals. The menu is much better than your normal pub food and the Indian dishes are worth trying. Cannot be faulted for the comfort of the bedrooms bar and restaurant, service provided by the staff and quality of the food and drink

Our experience
Our room was not a comfortable temperature as the heating was on very low and could not be adjusted. The bar area was also not a comfortable temperature and we had to wear coats. Our room was directly above the bar area where a group of musicians played from 8pm to 11.10. We decided to stay up to listen to the music which was enjoyable but someone who just wanted a good nights sleep would not have been impressed. The building is old and the floor boards in our room were particularly creaky. This could easily be resolved by investing some money into repair and maintenance. The staff were very efficient and friendly
