Location is excellent, right on the square Comfy bed

Parking was a bit of a pain ended up parking in long stay by the Tesco about a 5 minute walk away We paid for a small room but boy was it small, could barely move around and my husband had to climb over me to get in and out of bed Shower was very small, could not stand away from shower head / spray because no room so ladies if you don’t want wet your hair take a shower cap Staff are not particularly friendly and can be quite abrupt but saying that breakfast staff were lovely Hot breakfast has to be paid for, food quite expensive and 12% tip automatically added to bill

Absolutely beautiful building in the heart of Stow. Very comfortable room and despite facing onto the Square it was very quiet and peaceful. I had read a review that you would receive endless emails prior to arrival so wasn’t surprised when this happened. However they were useful especially the directions to the car parks which we did manage to get into. Also if you are intending to eat in the evening do book in (as it says in the email).

It was very busy when we stayed (because of the Cheltenham Festival) so probably the staff were a bit stressed but we did find some of them a bit abrupt.

Very friendly, helpful, courteous staff; excellent dinner and breakfast menu; decent sized and very comfortable bedroom with view of Market Square and St Edward's Hall, and well appointed ensuite bathroom; bijou C17 inn in Market Square location with on street parking at the door that perfectly suited our overnight stay (although private onsite parking available somewhere behind).

Bombarded with duplicating emails before arrival; lighting dimly atmospheric to a fault (my wife fell at the bottom of the badly lit stairs, and the grey on beige dinner menu was almost illegible); the much anticipated steak tartar (not often offered in UK) was disappointing in that the sought after beef and egg flavours were masked by an excess of additional ingredients other flavours; drinks and menu pricing generally (esp. cafe latte an extra at breakfast).

The location of the hotel couldn't be better. Right on the market square - ideal. Parking is limited, but we had no problems and there is plenty of parking within easy reach. One of the Stag's car parks has 2 EV charging points. It's a really nice cosy welcoming pub with rooms. The facilities in our room - coffee, tea, comfortable bed, very good shower room - were all of a high quality, I thought. My only reason for marking any of the above less than top marks was our room, Bambi, was really too small to be called a double. It had no storage space to speak of. The Stag has other larger rooms so if you are a couple I'd suggest not going for the cheapest. We dined there one night. Food very good. I can recommend the sharing pie! Breakfast also good. Cooked is extra, but the continental breakfast is good - the croissants are delicious! We'd stay again at the Stag without hesitation but we'd book a larger room.

Just the room size as mentioned previously.

We loved our stay here. We were in room 6 and we had a gorgeous view of the town from the cutest little bay window. The bed was large (King size) and super comfy. The complimentary breakfast was great, although a bit slow for everything to come out. The location was brilliant and for what we needed, very central. There is free parking onsite. I have made a video review if you want to see more details of what our room looked like and the breaky. You can view it here https://youtu.be/q6TTVN0Q6ag

Breakfast starts at 7:30 technically but the beautiful warm pastries don't come out for quite some time. Which can be an issue if you need to take off for a full day of sightseeing.

OUR WELCOME WAS FRIENDLY AND IT WAS ALL VERY RELAXED WE DIDNT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS SO ALL WAS GOOD. IT WAS AN OLD PROPERTY SO YOU EXPECT AND FEW CREAKS ETC BUT IT WAS COSY AND ALSO THE BAR IN THE EVENING WAS COSY AND WE MET A FEW LOVELY PEOPLE. NEAR TO MANY VILLAGES, PERFECT SPOT TO SIGHT SEE. THE PUBS AND RESTURANTS NEARBY WERE GOOD. OUR BREAKKFAST WAS A CONTINENTAL BUFFET. PERFECT FOR US BUT OPTIONS OF A COOKED BREAKFAST IF WANTED. IT WAS GOOD

LIKED EVERYTHING

The Hotel is beautiful and a fantastic location. The rooms are finished to a lovely standard, very clean and the bed was very comfortable and huge! The staff are so friendly and helpful and the food was great :)

The only downside is that, due to the age of the building, it could be quite noisy when people would walk around in the room above or the corridor (old floorboards!) so this disturbed my sleep a little.

Positive: the location, parking and breakfast!! Fabulous parking right in front of hotel. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and delicious! Cons: Our room was very small, with very little space to move around. The most difficult part was the low doorways and the four flights of stairs to get to our room. We bumped our heads on the doorway several times. And I fell partway down a flight of stairs due to limited lighting and slick carpet and shallow, turned steps.

the room was incredible value for money, a whole floor with a roll top bath as well as a double shower, loved it! the continental breakfast was very varied- amazing blueberry muffins! great location also. staff were friendly

wasn’t aware that cooked breakfast would be extra (quite a bit extra!), may be worth mentioning somewhere before booking- continental was very nice though so almost made up for it! ate here one night of our stay and wasn’t overly amazed by the food, although the parmesan truffle fries were lovely. one or two notes with cleanliness of the room (cobwebs, hairs) but that’s being picky!

Lovely village location. Plenty of parking. Quirky room in the loft called the "crows nest" very comfortable bed. Wonderful meal 10/10 for the steak & ale sharing pie!! A complimentary glass of Peseco each for our anniversary, which was a lovely surprise. Very friendly and helpful staff...

We were unable to have a relaxing drink after our wonderful meal as all the tables were reserved for meals so we had to go out to another pub. The quirkiness of our room was nice. However, the socket for the kettle/ coffee machine was unaccessible unless you got on your hands and knees and struggled under a beam to change plugs. A mirror near the window opposite the bed would have been appreciated for light to see what you were doing. The gap between the bed and wall was like a dark hole!...if you dropped something down there, you would have a heck of a job getting it back. The continental breakfast was ok. Set in an awkward position with very small plates and coffee cups.
