The William Cecil offers a fabulous stay within Stamford right on the edge of the Burleigh estate. The hotel itself is a very old building that has been transformed into a comfortable stay location for guests and events alike. The staff could not be more accommodating to the needs of their guests, to the extent where the manager lent my wife his own personal umbrella to head into town during a rain shower. Overall an excellent stay and we would definitely return again should we visit Stamford onceoree in the future

Great little stay
Overnight stay in Stamford. We were slightly apprehensive due to some of the reviews but our experience was really good. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. Our room was lovely with a huge bed and a deep free standing bath. Breakfast was great…… what’s not to like? We will definitely stay here again👍👍

Weekend in Stamford
A nice weekend break. Service was excellent and we enjoyed the breakfast. The only negative was the room - a bit too small, particularly the bathroom. Otherwise a decent hotel.

Slightly disappointed
Was slightly disappointed with the comfort this stay. Issues with bedstead corners in small space (caught legs several times). Had to ask staff to turn off overheated towel rail in bathroom (it wasn't apparent). Ropey taps and large shower head didn't make showering easy. Needed the fan (it was very warm) which was efficient, but very noisy. Road noise more bothersome this visit.

Lovely historic hotel.
Lovely historic hotel which still has some of the original features. Room was a good size, but needed a repaint. At back of hotel with no view out of the window. Disappointing for £161 per night. Excellent quality bath towels. One or two if the staff needed a bit more training. Very rushed and not particularly interested in you as a guest.

Lovely place to stay. Just a couple of pointers.
Over all, a very pleasant stay. The public areas were very nice. Excellent parking. Great service and friendly staff. The food was very good The hot water in the shower wasn't hot. The bathroom towel rail however was hot and was on all of the time. Not the end of the world, but enough to take it down to a 4/5 review . Pity.

Poor experience
I did not rate this hotel, my room was super dusty causing me breathing problems during the night due to my allergies. I paid close to £140 for 1 night here and the price did not reflect the service, cleanliness and facilities. I had a full english breakfast which was nice however it didn't come with beans which I thought was strange, I checked out and handed the key to a lady at reception only to receive a call a few hours later telling me I hadn't handed the key back and they wanted to charge me £50. I wont be staying here again unfortunately.

Great hotel in a lovely location within walking distance of everything in Stamford. We had booked a Cosy Room which was on the small side but was perfectly comfortable for our one-night stay. It had a lovely view out over the gardens, and was well-equipped with a small fridge and a kettle. There were also delicious cookies in the room on our arrival. Breakfast was very good with a wide selection of hot food which is cooked to order; we were able to eat it outside as the weather was so warm. The hotel has very pretty gardens and a large car park. Staff were polite and efficient. We ill definitely stay here the next time we are in Stamford.

A beautiful building and an amazingly comfy bed.
An absolutely amazing nights stay, the bed was incredibly comfy and we slept like a log. The staff were very attentive, one slight criticism was they need more staff as when we went to the bar we were waiting for quite a while to be attended to. Their sister bar restaurant down the road we left after 20 minutes, the waiter took my drink order while my wife was choosing, 20 minutes later and nothing. So sadly they lost out on our food and drinks order.
