We had a lovely stay , the public areas were beautiful, however our room was disappointing as the only window was up high on the wall , which made ventilation an issue so it was extremely warm , and the room was in need of decoration . Having said that , I would definitely make a return visit as staff , food and the public areas were really lovely!

We really enjoyed our stay . The hotel has a lovely feel and has very attentive and friendly staff . On arrival Rachel really looked after us giving us a most delightful room which enhanced our stay further.

Sadly not a great nights sleep, but large rooms

The room and bathroom was very large, however the bed was not comfortable and there was a lot of noise from the road and the room above resulting in a poor nights sleep.

We loved our stay here! The staff were so welcoming and friendly. Our dog received an incredible welcome, including her own bed, bowls and hamper full of snacks! The room was spotlessly clean, a good size, comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay. The vegan breakfast was great and we had a drink in the evening, enjoying an expertly made cocktail. The hotel is in walking distance of Burghley House and grounds (accessible via the hotel's garden) and has plenty of parking for guests. It'd be great if they could install additional electric vehicle chargers as both were occupied on our arrival, but we managed to charge in the morning during breakfast which was really helpful with our onward journey. We'd definitely come back here!

Our large room was lovely but odd in no wardrobe, couple flat hooks on wall, insufficient for our needs of more than 2 items and costs. Our friends had a small wardrobe no sofa. Dinner was truly excellent, all dishes.

Loved it

Great location, friendly and helpful staff. We had a “cosy” room but it was big and lovely bathroom. My only complaint would be lack of power points. To use the kettle or coffee maker you had to go under the dressing table to swap the plugs and same to use the hairdryer. It was clean and very comfortable and a bonus we didn’t know about was you can walk straight into Burghley house grounds from the hotel. The breakfast was included and excellent. We chose the full English but plenty of options. We didn’t eat there for dinner but the restaurant did seem busy. Would definitely stay there again

Weekend in Stamford

A nice weekend break. Service was excellent and we enjoyed the breakfast. The only negative was the room - a bit too small, particularly the bathroom. Otherwise a decent hotel.
