Disappointing Stay
Very dissappointed with overall look of room. Absolutely no soft furnishings or pictures on the wall. I would describe the room as "stark" . Heated towel rail did not work. Carpet out side of room heavily stained. It was explained that the hotel was under new management and that not all rooms had been fully refurbished. Therefore this expensive room should have been let a discounted rate. Staff were pleasent enough.

One night in Stamford.
I had a lovely night in the hotel; the staff were excellent, and the drinks prices were very reasonable. It is just a short walk to get to the town centre. I didn't try any food, but what I did see coming out of the kitchen looked amazing. I was in an attic room which was very cosy, the heating worked well. I would definitely stay here again.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff were delightful. The food was good. The attic room was very poor, for several reasons. Unsuitable furniture leaving s choice of either banging ones shins on the bed legs or banging ons head on the sloping ceiling (and I am only 5'2"!) Not enough power points and too many gadgets. Who needs a coffee machine (which I could not get to work) when there is a perfectly good kettle and they have coffee bags)? The room was also quite cold and the duvet thin, although as it was a king size one I was able to fold in two, thank goodness. I also had trouble with fi-fi the first day.
