Very old and interesting inn. It was very difficult to find. Some of the staff were irritable or condescending- probably just having a bad day. Nice pub.

Good stay In Centre of Stafford

The Vine the oldest coaching inn in Staffordshire. We were given a warm welcome and allowed to check-in early as they had a room available. We were asked about breakfast and we needed information on gluten free items as my husband is Coeliac, they kindly provided a separate sheet with the options on. Although the building is old the room was clean and the large bed very comfortable. The bathroom was large and the shower adequate. The staff were friendly and helpful and made us feel welcome.

The property is as expected for its age. Room was small but comfortable. The shower was powerful and hot but needed some TLC. Shower tray and tiles needed a good clean or refurb. My husband cleared a blockage as the shower tray filled up completely with water. The biggest complaint we had was the food. We ate there on the first night and my steak was burnt and very overdone on one side ( ordered medium rare) Also unable to cut until turned over. My husband's burger was also overcooked. Ww mentioned this to staff and she said that she would tell the chef the next day. We could not have asked for any replacement meal as the food was not served after 8pm and the chef was no longer there. The first mornings breakfast was fine but on our second morning, we both ordered omelettes. These were extremely well cooked with black burnt and crispy edges. They were inedible! We told the waitress and the chef. He said when asked that they are always cooked like that. He looked completely shocked and unconcerned. We ended up with cereal and toast! Do not recommend the food at all.

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)
