We were in the top room. Room was comfortable enough and location was excellent. Shower didn't really work and the holder was broken so you couldn't attach it to the wall. The breakfast provided was in the room - cereals, some bread for toast and packets of butter, and jam. Was nice enough but not what we had expected. There was nice coffee and a cafatiere.

Central location only 10min walk to centre.

Candlesticks is ok, certainly not 5 star but for Stamford not a bad price. Good breakfast offered, not cooked but lots of other things, toast with jams etc, yoghurt, cereal, tea and coffee. Need new plumper pillows as we woke up with bad necks! It is was it is.

Worth visiting.

We only met the host at the of day 2, but he was really nice and we had a good chat. The room, while small, was clean and tidy. Having the breakfast stored in a cupboard, with different. We actually had breakfast at the Country Lounge on the other side of the river. If you take into consideration that the place was built in the 1730's, it was actually a very nice place. We didn't try the restaurant, but I understand it is highly regarded.

It was in a convenient location. Easy check in and breakfast left in the room. Small fridge was useful. A general update (redec) of the common areas and room 5 would be useful.

This is a small family run hotel and resturant. The owner is the chef, and the food is excellent. He has an extensive wine list, so if you are a connoisseur of wine- then this is the place for you! The resturant is amazing, beautifully lit with candles. The owner is a lovely person, and made my partners birthday weekend one which we will not forget. Thank you so much for your friendliness, kindness and hospitality.

Odd place.

Very jaded, decor from 70's. Mattress was very hard and you had to eat a very limited breakfast in your room - cereal and toast.

So I stayed at this property on Friday 11th April 2025. One single room ,it's very small , yes tea and coffee, kettle,small fridge ,small tv. Wardrobe with hangers, also a shower and toilet .the fridge had breakfast stuff in , two slices of bread (toaster also)drink of Orange , cereal,milk . So yes everything in the room but it's very small , the wallpaper needs attention it's bits missing especially next to the single bed (the bed is pushed up against the wall so it's like you are sandwiched in at the top , one wall is just board nothing on it like ,just not touched at all , the shower wouldn't tighten so you had to hold it in your hand to shower , I didn't see anyone in the small bar at any time , it is what it is ,ok if you are a student or something. It did the job but I wouldn't go back , the hotel manager who gave me the room key was Very welcoming, the room needs a makeover
