Knight's Village at Warwick Castle - Warwick

We spent a couple of perfect days here. The hotel is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The rooms are average size hotel rooms and have a curtain separating the two sleeping areas, so that the youngsters can go to sleep in the bunk beds without being disturbed by the lights and television in the other part of the room.

The whole complex is set in gardens and woodland, with a raised walkway between the main part of the hotel and the tavern/restaurant. Breakfast consisted of a buffet with pretty much everything you could hope for, even down to children's spoons, so that the little ones could eat their breakfasts more easily.

The castle is a 10 minute walk from the hotel, and overnight guests receive a sizeable discount on entrance tickets. Finally, a shout out to all the staff, who were without exception friendly, polite and helpful. We can't wait to go back.

We stayed at Knight’s Village at Warwick Castle last February during the non-peak season, and it was a very peaceful experience. With only a few guests booked, the atmosphere was quiet and relaxing, making it a great place to unwind after exploring the castle.

The accommodation was comfortable, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. One of the highlights was the breakfast – there was a great variety of options, and everything was fresh and delicious.

If you’re visiting Warwick Castle and prefer a quieter stay, the non-peak season at Knight’s Village is definitely worth considering!

We stayed at the castle over the first week in January, which enabled us to see all of the decorations, and wake up to a dusting of snow! This new hotel was very well thought out for families. My children loved the bunk beds, and while we just have 2, it was nice to see a trundle bed which could accommodate a family of 5. They also have a small gift shop within the castle that has extra children/baby supplies such as nappies and wipes that I think would be a godsend for a lot of parents. ||We paid about £295 for one night, but I felt it was a fair price as it also included entrance to the castle the next day for our family of 4. We arrived via train and it is easy with a small amount of luggage to walk from the station. The staff was very welcoming and had our room ready to go when we arrived. ||They had a pantomime performance which was a nice touch for pre-dinner entertainment. The actors did a great job and it was very enjoyable. We did not have dinner on site, it is a very quick walk into the town centre and there are a number of options (recommend Red Hot Mama for kids) that are available. ||Staying on site allowed us to be one of the first groups into the castle, it was really nice to be able to feel like we had it to ourselves. Because it was the Christmas period the castle was beautifully decorated with gorgeous trees in many of the rooms. ||My only complaint is that the coffee at breakfast was HORRIBLE - the filter coffee was watered down and cold, gives Costa a bad name that you advertise them as your coffee provider. Not kidding I almost walked into town to Caffe Nero to get a proper coffee.

A brilliant place to stay! Knights themed lodges with modern twists. It was very warm in the night, even in December. The restaurant food was very, very nice. Carvery style all you can eat. Breakfast included, but evening meal was super expensive. £100 for a family of 4. A refillable soft drink was £5 per person. Carvery just under £30 per adult.
Live "panto-style" entertainment happens around you whilst eating, which the kids thought was great. You get an hour slot and then you have to leave. Plenty of time but just be aware to turn up on time.

Gorgeous well designed Lodges. Clean, comfy, great amenities. Lovely for a short break. |Decorated in medieval accessories to create an immersive feel. The children’s have a bunk room with a pull out bed if you have three. |Lovely surroundings and good breakfast. We loved it!

Great stay in the knights village! We started out rocky- when we opened to door to our lodge it was SO HOT like a sauna. A frantic search found the thermostat was cranked to maximum?! We had to open all the windows and it took 5-6 hours until the temperature was comfortable again or about 2am. However, saying all that, the location is beautiful - the rooms were clean and my kids loved the knight theme decor. We had the breakfast the next morning, which was fantastic- buffet style- toured the castle, and had our dinner there as well. The dinner was very expensive. Food was pretty good. Not worth the price, however there is a knight who comes around and talks with the kids and does knights school which was 10/10. Sir Samuel was amazing and needs a raise!!! He made the dinner worth it!! Even if you don't have kids, the humor in the show is applicable to young and old.
So even with the heat issue, all in all it was still fantastic.

We stayed in the knights quarters as part of our holiday trip. We toured the castle on a Wednesday. We were worried it was going to be focused on children as multiple activities were being promoted mainly for younger kids., we were adults only group.||However the castle was great, the rooms, architecture and information was amazing. We did the tower walk along the battlements, great views and the being able too see how battles were fought.||I was expecting entertainment during dinner but there was none. Food was good.||Loved all the Xmas decorations, was beautiful.

We stayed in the Knights Village hotel for a santa sleepover with a 3yr old and enjoyed visiting the castle although 3 nights was too long. ||||Cons:||The elves forgot our wakeup call on the second morning which was disappointing.||||The santa experience felt a bit rushed. They could do with more of an event than just going in a tent, like other festive activities. ||||The first night we had booked for dinner in the banquet hall but it was overpriced with a dreadful pantomime over a buffet. It all felt very tragic and overwhelming for young children so wouldn't waste your money there. ||||Room service would be useful for parents who need an early night as on site options limited.||||Due to the storm our ice skating session was cancelled but without any contact or offer of refund. ||||Pros:||The Christmas light walk was fantastic. We had a magical time. ||||The zog themed park was a hit.||||The themed room was very clean and useful to have a dividing curtain between the bunk bed and parents bed. Plenty of space for the pushchair too.||||The elf costumes were beautiful and the story was nice.
