Best Western goes regal with Studley Castle

Studley Castle, set in the heart of Warwickshire, is the latest addition to the Best Western brand, bringing the number of individually owned and managed hotels in the groups collection of member hotels to 283.

It’s not often you get treated like royalty but a stay at the newly named Best Western Studley Castle allows both leisure and corporate guests to be just that and much more with 28 acres of estate to stroll around, a grand driveway entrance, historical Georgian style interiors and welcoming attention to detail.

This three star property has its own ‘Oak Room’ restaurant serving local produced cuisine in spectacular surroundings and hosts a total of 57 ensuite bedrooms with one suite, 13 superior rooms and 43 standard rooms – although there is nothing quite standard about a stay in this castle!

For those wanting to relax on their break why not take advantage of the hotels sauna and fitness room after a day visiting some of the many sights in and around the village of Studley.

Take a short trip to one of the country’s most popular shopping Mecca’s, Birmingham for a day full of designer handbags to high street bargains. Or, if adrenalin and adventure is more your thing why not visit Drayton Manor theme park or the West Midlands Safari park, all of which are just a short drive away. For the bookworms out there nearby Stratford-Upon-Avon is the perfect place to while away the day in this historic city - the home of William Shakespeare.

With extensive conference facilities this magnificent hotel is also the ideal location for any business guest. From staying just one night to booking a full scale conference this hotel has everything the corporate booker could need with free WIFI available throughout the building and ten conference rooms accommodating from just two people to 150 delegates.

Talking about his reasons for joining the group Neal Goldsmith, General Manager, Best Western Studley Castle said: “As an independent hotel in a competitive market place we know the importance of branding and awareness. Joining the Best Western group allows us to be seen on a much wider scale not only across Great Britain but globally, with guarantees for the booker that we have excellent standards and customer service.”

Best Western have a range of properties in the portfolio from lake set mansions to railway buildings and this is the second castle to join the largest group of independently owned and managed hotels, with the Best Western Walworth Castle being the other based in Darlington.

Commenting on the new recruit, Keith Pope, Director of Membership Services at Best Western hotels said: “Studley Castle not only offers exceptional quality but it also a unique property fitting perfectly with our distinctive and individual brand. We are delighted to welcome them into the Best Western group.”

“At Best Western, we support hoteliers, helping them to generate new business through a global brand, sales, revenue management and distribution and we are keen to speak to independent hotels who wish to benefit from being a part of the Best Western group.”
