Excellent location

We stayed room only, we were checked in quickly and the male employee who checked us in was friendly and helpful

The room was next to a main road which was quite noisy in the early morning. There was a double glazed window that when shut did eliminate the noise

Enjoyed our time in Stamford. Room generously sized, nicely furnished with great bathroom. Would stay again

Charming room with period furnishings. Friendly staff. Good breakfast.

Bed was a bit too soft, lighting in the room a bit dim.

Mixed, not bad, pretty good.

Bathroom, except for the delay caused by "no hot water" in tub, although personnel discovered it could be turned on by pulling up on the faucet handle while turning.

It was unpleasantly hot in the room. A fan was provided in the room, but it was very difficult to position the fan so that it blew upon us as we lay in the bed.

Nice hotel, but make sure you pick the right room!

Breakfast was excellent.

We were very disappointed with the room allocated to us. We had room 5 which bore no resemblance to the rooms depicted on the hotel website. We paid £189.00 bed and breakfast, the same price as other rooms in the hotel . We booked many weeks in advance, yet we were given a room which was furnished austerely, with old , one could say almost utility items, again, not at all like the rooms on the website. We accept totally that our bathroom was across the private corridor, and totally understand why, and have no problem with that. That aspect was actually quite charming and quirky. OK value at £100 per night, but not £189.00 for this particular room

Great short break, excellent friendly staff, lovely clean room with an excellent DAB radio!

Breakfast was excellent with plenty of variety to choose from, took our beloved pooch Herbie, very nice touch to have a doggy bed, two bowels and a bag of treats for him.My only regret is we went to a couple pubs in the town, and when we got back to the Bull and swan my wife and I both agreed we should have spent the night here, will definitely do it next time!

Exhausting

Charming and historical

Very busy and noisy. My room was above the kitchen and I had huge extractor fans spinning and humming loudly all night. Kitchen opened at 6am and I barely slept.

A great location for a stay in Stamford although not quite our cup of tea.

A lovely Coach House, very well set out. Room was well appointed. The team member at check in was great in seeing us to our room and explaining our facilities.

The room had some work undertaken leaving an exposed wall. The shower pressure and temperature was lacking. water no hot enough although turning it all the way to its hottest temp. Dinner - not part of our package was onsite and we were very dissatisfied with the burgers and have addressed this with management following our stay. We didn’t feel that we connected with the staff and wasn’t asked how our stay was upon checkout.

Good Facilities, great food and friendly, helpful staff

The room was very comfortable, especially the bed and pillows. The bathroom was large with walk in shower and claw feet bath. We invited local friends to join us for dinner and all the dishes were very good. The chef and staff dealt with my food allergies with care and understanding. There is an excellent choice for breakfast and this is also freshly prepared. The meals exceeded our expectations and all the staff were friendly and professional.

The restaurant area was very cold as it was a chilly night. We were disappointed that the log burner had not been lit.

Lovely Pub

Overall a really great stay; - The staff were fantastic, very friendly and helpful - Comfortable bed & big room - Great breakfast - Nice location

Housekeeping checks need to be done a bit better; - Toilet in the bathroom hadn’t seen bleach for a while - Milk in fridge curdled into yogurt (but replaced quickly on reporting this) Also not the hotels fault but there was no available parking at the sister hotel up the road (think there must have been an event on) so we had to find alternative paid parking that only took cash which we didn’t have.

Good location, comfy beds and friendly staff. Lovely rear garden.

Pillows were too soft and room didn't have a window that could be opened. The room was looking a little tired. Could do with a brighter light as very dimly lit.

Excellent old inn in a great English town.

Historic Inn with super-friendly people and an amazing Full-English breakfast. Bar is also cozy and wonderful, too. Room furnishings very interesting and memorable. Would stay again in a heartbeat!

Lack of air conditioning in our room. Probably not a problem on most days.
