The Old Bakery

Absolutely lovely place, our 2nd visit. A d won't be out last. Very comfortable room, had everything we needed for an overnight stay and probably the most powerful shower I've experienced (great when you've got thick hair). Staff friendly, breakfast excellent and lovely popular pub / real ale bar

Stayed in a double room on the ground floor. Very comfortable room, clean and fully stocked. Nice little car park round the back of the place which is tricky to get to if you don't research it first. Parking at a premium in Kenilworth - so my advice is to get there early.... A short walk to the castle and the abbey remains - well worth a visit if you like that kind of thing. Lovely breakfast in the morning. Only a couple of negative things. The fan in the bathroom is really loud and comes on automatically when the light is switched on. Takes ages to turn off when the light is switched off though. Also, the walls must be really thin as we heard every word of a phone conversation from somewhere else in the hotel. I'd stay there again if the volume of the extract fan was reduced somewhat.

The room was very pleasant with comfortable beds. The decor was good. The staff at booking in were helpful. We were very well served by the bar staff (especially the lady) on returning from a restaurant. The only reason I have marked them down is that the breakfast arrangements were/are not good. One had to be there at 8.30am at the latest (9.00am would be fine). On arrival at 8.35am we were asked what we wanted and ordered a full breakfast. The breakfast was okay - not the best I have had but when my friend asked for coffee he was advised that it was past 9.00am and coffee was then not being served. The manageress did serve tea. As a result of the foregoing we felt rushed. Clearly they wanted to make the rooms ready for their next visitors.
