Stafford Gatehouse Theatre

Great quiet hotel. Ample parking for everyone.Staff are really helpful and friendly. Staff attrition is low, we stay about every 6-7 weeks and it is the same people. This shows that working conditons, pay etc must be acceptable for staff to stay making it a happy place.Dog friendly rooms with lovely river walks past the rugby club down past the canal or along the river and around the wildlife reserve. Food is great, especially the amazing choice at breakfast. We stay in different grades of room depending on length of stay. The 2 bed suites are situated close to the lifts but are sound insulated to a point. Amenities include minifridge, aircon, fan heaters and cooling fans, 2 double beds and 2 bed settees. Bathroom is functional and well stocked with soaps,shampoos in pump dispensers. Local wildlife when on walks complete the atmosphere. Cannot really fault this for the realistic price per night.

Location is further from the train station but we liked that it was outside of the central core. Still easy to get around by walking and the campus has security so it feels safe even if you're out late. The room was spacious and while there's no AC, they did provide a fan. No fridge and our safe wasn't working though.

A great stay for business and staff super helpful
