Very good location to walk into Stamford. Nice old hotel with history attached. Well appointed rooms, easy parking and nice breakfast. The room was a bit on the small side for the price and the shower cubicle was smaller than we are used to but overall very nice.

The rooms are in need of TLC. Our room was so hot no way of turning the heating down and couldn’t open the window due to a lot of road/traffic noise. The staff were all very friendly and helpful
