Our room was ideal in the building at the rear with bus stop just round the corner. The main Hotel building still had wooden beams so very characteristic and the staff were very friendly.

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!

The location was good, free parking but unfortunately, it was full on the day, so had to park at a near by long stay. The staff were nice and friendly as always. The room needed a little bit of an update and maintenance for the price (£100 a night)

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.

Had a great stay at Vine in Stafford, staff were lovely, food was great, room was great, price was great BUT when we were trying to go to sleep someone in the room above came to back and thudded around like an elephant for about an hour. Every time I nearly fell asleep there would be more REALLY loud banging around. Then, in the morning (a Sunday) at about 8am the banging, thudding, talking, was going on for over an hour again. I was trying to sleep to make up for the disturbed night in the morning but much to my dismay the racket kept waking me up again just as I drifted off. I left Vine feeling EXHAUSTED because of the relentless thudding. It was so loud it almost sounded like they were purposely trying to thud as loud as possible.

Bedroom was fine. Bathroom not so much.

Double bed was two singles so you get the inevitable dip in the middle. Toilet was so close to the radiator, having long legs I had to try and not burn my knee. Shower drain was no good. Within 2 mins I was up to my ankles in water so had to keep turning it on and off and the shower leaked so had a lovely wet bathroom floor.

Pub hotel in need of a makeover

This is a basic pub hotel in serious need of refurbishment. The room was ok, a worn carpet with a couple of stains but clean overall. The bathroom was a disgrace, stains on the sink and mould in the shower cubicle. Everthing looked dirty. Horrible stained lino on tbe floor too. The breakfast and service were good. It's a shame because this is a nice pub, it just needs some investment in the rooms.
