Wonder staff, stay and restuarant

Wonderful friendly staff who truely could not do enough for you. Food is amazing and very high quality and reasonably priced. My only critasum would be the rooms and bathrooms could do with some modernisation, however they are perfectly fit for purpose.

Staff were very friendly and helpful, the breakfast was good and the room was good enough for a nights stay. Probably couldn't do more than 1 night, as beds and pillows were not particularly comfortable and the room was a little noisy, as the floor boards above were very creaky so heard the other guests walking around in their room until the early hours, so didn't get much sleep.

We stayed at this property for 3 nights and had a pleasant stay. This does not have the most up to date decore and there are some small bits which could do with some work i.e hooks on the back of the bathroom door was falling off and bathroom mirror was missing, however the room was spotless, had plenty of bedding, pillows and amenities like coffee and tea. The staff were amazing and really made out stay. They offered advice re: things to go and see during our stay and they were able to accommodate for our changing breakfast orders. Breakfast was nicely cooked and of good quality and they offered a great selection of cereals and juices. I, personally, would have liked the option of pastries as well however I still enjoyed what was on offer.

Fantastic stay!

We checked in at about 8:15pm (we rang to check this was ok as it was quite late), and were met by a lovely am. Who carried our cases to our room. This was such a friendly way to be met when we had been busy all day. He gave us all the information we needed to be settled and we let him know what time we would be down for breakfast. The beds were really comfortable and the room equipped with and good size TV, towels and tea, coffee and biscuits. There were other extras that were helpful too, such as a hairdryer and an extension lead for extra electricals. We went down to breakfast in the morning to be treated with really friendly staff again and a plentiful breakfast - a full English (with produce sourced from the local butcher) cooked to order and there was also a good range of cereals, jams and toast. We loved our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to come back!

Fantastic place to stay as a family.

My wife, son & I decided to have a spontaneous night away (21-6-25) and after reading a few reviews and using google for location we decided to book with the Stamford Gate Hotel. On arrival the staff were extremely helpful and answered our questions. The room was good and I was even surprised to see trouser pressers in the room. Something I have not seen in many of years which and made me smile and have a good childhood memory of my late parents. The building looks very pretty inside and out with a modern feel. Local ales, IPAs at the bar if you wish to have local Welsh drinks. The beds were extremely comfortable, I personally was happy to not see big fluffy pillows that feel hard in most places we stay. The rooms are spacious and great amenities like iron, kettle, teas etc. They do have regular live events throughout the year which is great when you’re staying and huge function rooms that can hold very large groups of people. The breakfast was phenomenal, fresh flavourful ingredients and I highly recommend their cooked breakfast if you stay. What stood out to me and my wife was the genuine extra mile that the staff and owners Matt & Emma did for us. They took their time to have a chat with us, our son is high on the autistic spectrum and we could thank them enough for accommodating the additional needs. They both recommended a few areas we could visit and overall made our stay with them very relaxing.
