The Old Fourpenny Shop Hotel
Address: 27-29 Crompton Street, Warwick CV34 6HJ, England
Price: From £90 per night

First on our list is one of the top-rated hotels in all of Warwick. Travellers cannot stop raving about the Four Penny Hotel, found inside the Four Penny Pub (no surprise there). Hidden next to Warwick Racecourse, the pub itself is a beautiful, traditional public house, with plenty of drinks and food available to revellers.
But further on, you’ll find a wide selection of rooms, from small doubles to large family rooms, all furnished to a high standard.
Warwick town centre is just a short walk away, as well as Warwick Castle, but since the pub is found on a residential street, you can expect a quiet night away from the crowds.
Warwick Arms Hotel

One of Warwickshire’s oldest hotels. The Warwick Arms had stood on this spot since Elizabethan times, and has connections to former Earls of Warwick. Starting a coaching inn, and even briefly becoming a government building during World War 2, the Warwick Arms is the most recognisable hotel in Warwick.
Right on High Street, you are just a short distance from the shops, and major attractions and experiences, including The Weird Walk of Warwick.
As a larger hotel, expect plenty of staff in the bar, restaurant and hotel team ready to make your stay an enjoyable one.
Rumour has it some of the upper floors contain haunted activity, so history lovers and spook enjoyers will feel right at home in this historic building.

Website: https://theoldcoffeetavern.co.uk/
One of our favourite pubs in Warwick, also happens to be one of the nicest hotels! Right in the shadow of St Marys Church, The Old Coffee Tavern has arguably the best location of any hotel in Warwick.
Found inside a gorgeous 19th century building, the atmosphere (or vibes) of the tavern are second-to-none, with great food, great beer and a luscious beer garden at the back.
The hotel rooms form part of what used to be a social club for members of society wishing to avoid alcohol (ironically) but are now finished to a tasteful and modern standard.
The Old Coffee Tavern is very popular, so those looking for excitement, adventure and to be close to the party should consider staying here.

The Globe

Despite the reasonable price of a room, stepping inside you’ll find a meticulously designed interior, with smartly dressed, friendly staff and an impressive food menu, not to mention the gorgeous bar which can whip up your favourite cocktail in no time.

A 400 year old inn, right on the outskirts of the town centre (aka a 2-minute walk to the market square). But despite looking and feeling like an old, traditional pub, The King’s Head offers a vibrant menu of Spanish cuisine, which is hard to beat!
There’s an extensive outdoor area too, ideal for the warmer weather. And for those looking to get the most out of their trip to England, there is a large supermarket nearby, so you can stock up on English drinks, sweets and snacks.
The King’s Head is a firm favourite with locals, with a very traditional interior. Cosy, cool and inviting!
