Great stay!
Very welcoming manager and staff, fantastic dinner options that were extremely good value for money and a very handy location to get to the Staffordshire Showground.
The only thing that was a bit odd was that, while our room was freshened up every day, the sink didn't get cleaned at all. My husband is a bit of a messy shaver and I am always very happy not to have to deal with the aftermath when staying in a hotel, so I was very surprised to find that part of the bathroom still untouched both days.
Nevertheless, we enjoyed our stay and will be back!

Perfect location if visiting the Gatehouse Theatre
Perfect location as we were going to the Gateshouse Theatre, which was just a few minutes walk. We did eat there and the food was nice. The room was ideal for the evening, the only negative was we couldn't turn the radiator off or down. Staff throughout were very helpful and friendly. We would stay there again if we were in the area.

A great location at the center of Stafford. Our room was clean and well prepared. The staff were very helpfull and the pub made a welcome change from those soulless budget hotels. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone
Free parking was an added bonus but could do with a few electric car changing points
