Candlesticks

It was in a convenient location. Easy check in and breakfast left in the room. Small fridge was useful. A general update (redec) of the common areas and room 5 would be useful.

This is a small family run hotel and resturant. The owner is the chef, and the food is excellent. He has an extensive wine list, so if you are a connoisseur of wine- then this is the place for you! The resturant is amazing, beautifully lit with candles. The owner is a lovely person, and made my partners birthday weekend one which we will not forget. Thank you so much for your friendliness, kindness and hospitality.

The gentleman at this property was so helpful, kind and such a nice person he couldn’t do more for me genuinely made me stay here so lovely. Thank you

Great value, well located for town centre. Friendly host.

Very convenient for the railway station and 5min walk into town centre. Nice welcome. Self-service breakfast supplies in room.

Great stay, owner was very helpful, polite and provided superb service.

Very jaded, decor from 70's. Mattress was very hard and you had to eat a very limited breakfast in your room - cereal and toast.

So I stayed at this property on Friday 11th April 2025. One single room ,it's very small , yes tea and coffee, kettle,small fridge ,small tv. Wardrobe with hangers, also a shower and toilet .the fridge had breakfast stuff in , two slices of bread (toaster also)drink of Orange , cereal,milk . So yes everything in the room but it's very small , the wallpaper needs attention it's bits missing especially next to the single bed (the bed is pushed up against the wall so it's like you are sandwiched in at the top , one wall is just board nothing on it like ,just not touched at all , the shower wouldn't tighten so you had to hold it in your hand to shower , I didn't see anyone in the small bar at any time , it is what it is ,ok if you are a student or something. It did the job but I wouldn't go back , the hotel manager who gave me the room key was Very welcoming, the room needs a makeover

Was made to feel so welcomed and Nothing was too much trouble. If you want to pamper yourself this is the place to go

A one night stay in central Stamford worked well. Very old building and very quirky. I called to see where i could park and the owner came out and showed me a space in his car parking area. Breakfast was in a fridge in the room with fresh milk , cereals, tea coffee etc which was fine. Be prepared for small stairs!

It was as described. A convenient location for staying in Stamford. The owner was very hospitable and helpful.

Can’t wait to return to try the restaurant. Neill (apologies if spelt wrong) was a fabulous host and we will definitely come and stay again

it was ok

We had a lovely stay at Candlesticks and would definitely stay again - comfortable, clean and quiet room, along with a friendly, responsive host. It's very close to all that Stamford has to offer and very convenient for Burghley House, plus has plenty of shops, restaurants and pubs nearby. The breakfast provided in our room was spot on!

Had a lovely two night stay at Candlesticks it was faultless to the point Nelio even defrosted Our windscreen in the morning for us. Breakfast both mornings was really lovely and will definitely go back again

We stayed for a little weekend. This place was amazing. The host is very accommodating and couldn’t do enough for us. We would highly recommend to anyone wanting to visit.

Clean and friendly experience overall. But the room we stayed in was very tired and dated.

I know its winter but the room and athroom were extremely cold. Tiled floor in the bathroom, sink not much bigger than a dish and very low hot water pressure. We had to negotiate narrow stairs to the 2nd floor which at the age of 76 with luggage was not easy. Breakfast was provided consisting of 4 slices of bread, individual cereal packets, pain au chocolate in sellophane looked quite old, small packets of butter and jam, make it yourself. We didnt bother because the room was cold and eating b/fast sitting on your bed was not on my agenda, consequently the Candlesticks is located not far from Stamford town centre which has plenty of cafes etc. The host however is a very pleasant chap.

No cooked breakfast but plenty of tea, coffee, cereal and bread in room

I booked this hotel based on its advertised photos and description, as it looked like a cosy place to stay but my experience was far from expectations. The hotel appears to be very run-down and in need of significant renovations. My room was cold & cramped with part MDF walls. Paint was chipped off in areas and the TV is about 4 inchs and so far away I couldn't see it. I was particularly disappointed with the bed, the mattress was so springy and the pillow was hard. Safe to say, sleep didn't come. The bathroom is extremely dated and the hot water took an age to come through. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, they couldn't compensate for the overall condition of the property. I would not recommend this hotel in its current state."
