Downstairs areas are all in good order; staff are pleasant and welcoming. I stayed in the Stafford room, so my review is based on this room. I can't say if this is reflective of other rooms. The room was in a very poor state, the furniture and especially the sofa were beyond poor. Ants across the floors, and moths on the walls. The headboard on the bed was foisty, carpets were unclean A very unpleasant stay. Breakfast was decent, and the service was good

Very comfortable room, excellent breakfast

Lovely from start to finish. Staff excellent - the meals were the best I had in two weeks in the UK. Make sure to ask for the bedroom on the first floor with the patio area - fantastic ! (Team Grafton - maybe a sign for which door is reception could be helpful but not mandatory : -)

Lovely building, very nice staff, but our room was really hot and had no means of adjusting the temperature. If we opened the window the road noise from the motorway kept us awake. As a result I had hardly any sleep. I would not stay again as I think all the rooms were the same.

Quirky

Great room, great staff, very comfy bed

Stayed in the music room - lovely big room and en-suite, clean and nicely furnished but could do with a lick of paint to cover the ceiling cracks in the main room and small areas of peeling paint in the bathroom. Breakfast very tasty. Staff friendly, professional, polit and helpful. No problem parking.

Smooth check in Great room warm and comfortable

very impressed. great setting in a historic building. one of the nicest hotels we have stayed in.

Nice old fashioned manor house. A nice change from the the modern cube room. Nice staff esp. the breakfast team. Small issues of maintenance in my room - bedside bulb broken, shower hose leaking badly. Wanted to report it but the reception was unmanned when I left. Would definitely stay again. Could be cold in the winter I had an attic room .

The hotel looks very nice from the outside with big grounds but the inside is very dated including furnishings!

We stayed in the music room, the room was spacious and very nice. However, it wasn't very clean, the skirting boards where dirty

Grafton Manor is a unique hotel with old world charm. The star were without exception friendly and helpful and the breakfast and dinner was excellent!

Beautiful Manor to stay in plus lovely quiet surroundings. Staff very friendly & helpful will definitely be returning in the near future.

One night stay in the Porch Room, very comfy bed and a spacious room.

Really old and tired hotel. Rooms very tired and no shower in my bathroom

We liked the old charm of the building and room,excellent breakfast staff very helpful and polite.

Always a pleasure to stay

Had the potential to be an amazing stay in an old country house. The bedrooms have names not numbers. Music room bedroom was fantastic to look at when i stayed in april. But there were dead flies and dead hornets on the carpet where the carpet met the wall , at least 30 all around the edges of the room. Whom ever vacuums the room needs new glasses. The sink was embarrassingly slow to drain and wouldnt completely empty. The shower contols fell off in my hand. In the morning the bathroom was so cold i wasn't able to have a shower . The bedroom was only just warm enough end of april .

Stayed many many times, lovely quiet place, breakfast and evening meals are fantastic
