Great location. Great value for money. Small double room but with everything that was needed. Wanted an extra pillow and staff got me one straight away. Very comfortable bed. Food was delicious and very reasonably priced. All staff were friendly. Despite an unclean bathroom, we would definitely stay again.

The bathroom was very old and grubby and could definitely do with a refurb. The plug in the shower was filthy and clogged with debris so it took an ages for the water to drain which put us off showering there again. The toilet was very stained

The Vine Hotel is located in the very centre of the Stafford Old Town. It is a lovely, historical building with a pub on the ground floor beautifully decorated in the old English style. The hotel's rooms are on the first and second floors. The room we had was tiny, but cute with lovely curtains in the window. It had all we needed: a comfortable double bed, electrical cattle, tea, coffee, a bathroom with hot water and a TV set. Breakfast was preapred by cheff. Parking is available for the hotel's guests free of charge. The hotel host Evette was very kind and helpful. The place has a vibe of old England. I love it and definitely would like to stay there again.

I would recommend for breakfast, an available fill-up option of tea, coffee, juice and water.

Received a very warm welcome from the staff at The Vine. The hotel is easy to find and only 10 minutes walk from the railway station. It's cosy, comfortable and old-fashioned in the best way. The room was a good size and had a proper bath! Despite being a pub-hotel, it wasn't loud in the late evening and, speaking as a lone female traveler, the whole place felt safe. I ate some meals in the pub - the food is straightforward, tasty and affordable. Decent free wifi and good TV reception.

Wasn't a difficulty for me, but there is no lift and my room was on the upper floor. There are wheelchair / flat-entry accessible areas for eating and drinking in the pub.

The staff where amazing from start to finish, check in was quick and easy and everything explained, the food for both the evening meal and breakfast where really good, I had Omelette for breakfast and the Lasagne for my evening meal both where very delicious.

The rooms really need some updating, we where in room 4 on the ground floor due to Mom's mobility issues, I went to close the curtains on the night and there was a massive screw sticking out of the back of the unit luckily I saw it in time, and the rooms really need a bit of TLC and a good clean.

The location was perfect for visiting the town, especially the Gatehouse Theatre. Comfortable bed with clean linen and towels. Room lovely and warm. Friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was excellent and good value for money.

The main issue we had was having a room above the bar. 8am breakfast music woke us up with thudding beat. I mentioned it to the staff and it was turned down but still had the thudding sound. It was then turned off and everything was good. Thank you staff. The bathroom was functional but quite small. No problem to us.

The inn as a whole is very quaint and traditional. The pub is a proper pub. The room was comfortable and had kettle, TV fan and a window you can actually open. The en suite was small but fit for purpose, the shower was low pressure but met my needs. I didn't wash my hair only got it wet but if I needed to rinse shampoo and/or conditioner then I feel like the water pressure might not be strong enough. The staff were friendly and explained everything I needed to know, including how to get in once the pub closes. Some people might feel that it is a bit dated but I think it adds to it's charm. There is something odd about a lovely old building that has shiny, new decor on the inside.

Water pressure was a bit weak in the shower but it was fine for my needs.

The property is listed as "Staffords' oldest inn". It certainly had character! The location was spot on and the parking was perfect for this stay. I wouldn't hesitate returning again if in the area. Staff were friendly and happy to oblige. Nice choice of draught beers in the bar. The evening meal was superb! Rare steak hand cooked to perfection by the resident (and happy/sociable) chef! It's a real treat these days to get food cooked correctly! They even had a gluten free menu.

The decor in the rooms is a bit shoddy - it's not bad - it's just "the final 5%" rough around the edges..... VERY squeeky floorboards in the room - poor guests in the room below - almost as squeeky as my knees climbing the stairs to the 2nd floor (steep and twisted....the stairs not my knees hahaha) but nothing that would stop me returning again!

From the moment I called to say can they give me directions from the train station as I couldn't get on with Google Maps as I have a sight impediment, I was stunned by the kindness and support offered. Yvette, the Assistant Manager, was exceptional and even came on her night off to meet me and escort me back to hotel. She made sure that I was looked after and was so helpful. The room was so comfortable and the breakfast was lovely. I was well and truly looked after and nothing was too much. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend to others.

Absolutely nothing. Perfect

Lovely friendly staff Delicious breakfast Loved the character of The vine , having lived in Stafford for a number of years before moving abroad it was lovely to stay somewhere that had retained that charm.

Mattress needs replacing , sank in the middle. Only one bedside table which made it difficult to have coffee in bed. Stumped foot on part of the bed base that part was sticking out. Bath needs replacing, very old stains.

Location is excellent breakfast very good value and the staff are incredibly helpful and very friendly.

The curtains in room 7 need rehanging and the bathroom is functional but very basic. The view overlooking the many bins wasn't particularly nice! Very noisy neighbours/street noise/ bin emptying and a smell of smoking was permanently along the corridor outside the room ..would prefer a room in the main building rather than the wing we were in but all this won't prevent us from returning.
