I chose the hotel for the proximity to Stanstead airport. was a good stay, staff all very helpful

Pros: The room was great. Mattress was super comfortable. Location was also great as we were staying because of a layover. Breakfast buffet was also the best I have ever had.

Cons: Food prices at restaurant were a little pricey for what was offered. Room smelled a little of smoke. Suggestion: perhaps offer complimentary water bottles in rooms?

Pros: I had only one night at the Radisson Blu but it was great. Dinner at the Italian restaurant was memorable - unusual, creative dishes. My room was, for me, very spacious and luxurious. The breakfast buffet was outstanding and had a wonderful assortment including fresh fruit salad, which is a rarity indeed. I had time to use the heated swimming pool.and enjoyed it very much. Then a quick but tasty lunch in the bar before departure. All the staff were excellent - friendly and helpful. I especially appreciated a late check out as well as a concierge facility that allowed me to leave a large suitcase both at no additional charge. I didn't mind paying for the excellent facilities and service. Well worth it.

Pros: Loved that there was an acrobat performing several times throughout the evening! Fantastic rooms and excellent service!

Cons: Everything was great!!!

Pros: Without doubt one of the warmest and cosiest B and Bs I've ever stayed in; it was minus figures outside but the room was warm and comfortable. The owner was very friendly and helpful, and provided an excellent breakfast in the morning. I'd have no hesitation booking Taphall again and would highly recommend it.

Cons: Great breakfast.

Pros: Good offering....even could have had a fry up but time constraints precluded this. Location was the only major negative with considerable road traffic noise particulary before midnight and after 5am.

Cons: Location. See above. Proximity to Stansted Airport a benefit when buses are available (a single adult fare £1.50) however taxis to the B&B were £14.50 from the approved airport taxi service....and if you followed the link for taxis on their booking confirmation page you could find youself paying £50 for a 3 mile journey!!

Pros: Beautiful home, great location after an evening flight. Very friendly and accomodating family. Very comfortable bed.

Cons: Shower water temp couldn't find warm- had to keep alternating hot and cold

Pros: Location only

Cons: Well it isn’t 4 star! Room is drab although the bed is comfortable. Sewing kit or emergency toothbrush are not available even though there’s a note in the bathroom saying so. Bath tiles are too slippery, the warning is not sufficient. Breakfast not worth £10

Pros: location

Cons: Bathroom , no curtains for shower , wet all the times. room smelled cigarette smoking

Pros: Location.

Cons: Although clean, Rooms are dated

Pros: great location for the airport

Cons: our room had a very loud buzzing noise from air con that couldn’t be switched off

Pros: Didn’t have breakfast location was ok for airport

Cons: Staff left bar unattended for periods so waited to be served. Aircon was very noisy so couldn’t have on so room very hot. Insulation poor as heard planes and cars. Bed very hard and uncomfortable

Pros: close to airport for or early morning flight. lovely meal in restaurant.

Cons: nothing

Pros: Location

Cons: No restaurant as undergoing refurbishment, (not advertised when booking) Room very worn and dirty, poor facilities considering it was a Superior room! Grounds very overgrown and outdated. Very Poor.

Pros: We used it as a stop-off on the way to Stansted Airport. The location was fantastic, just 10 minutes away. The building was old and stylish.

Cons: It could have done with a lick of paint in the bedroom. It was right on the Stansted flight path, but if you want a convenient location then that’s the price you have to pay!

Pros: Nothing, staff were extremely rude, the rooms are very tired in need of fresh paint, just about everything needs throwing away and start again.

Cons: I booked a simple room as we were coming to visit out children and grandchildren so we only needs a bed for the night. Our plans changed and I had arranged for my elderly uncle to come and stay with us. His room included breakfast, and I was informed that we could purchase breakfast for £10.00 pp. However the restaurant, bar etc was closed and there was no breakfast available! The tea tray was very sparse, minimum coffee, no biscuits or water. The hotel should not be selling rooms, they should be ashamed of themselves.

Pros: Perfect for overnight stay before fling from Stansted. Taxi which was included turned up on time so all good. Shame no bar/restaurant facilities but we knew this when booking due to refurbishment. Staff great. Just as a heads up if using this hotel the taxi back from Stansted was £32.

Cons: All good

Pros: The property in a nice setting, clean and convenient for airport.

Cons: Booking.com had omitted to inform guests that the bar and restaurant were shut for a refurb so nothing available to eat.

Pros: clean room

Cons: noise from planes taking off at 6.00am every five minutes. room location was poor as next to wooden staircase which was very noisy. no breakfast served at hotel.

perfect for the airport

Pros: Large clean room and bathroom. Beautiful grounds. Our room had French doors looking out at a lovely green space.The restaurant was very nice. The food and service were both excellent. My husband had a huge, beautifully cooked, hamburger. Breakfast was very good as well. We were on our way out of the country and it was a relaxing break in traveling. All the staff was friendly and helpful. would stay again!

Pros: Booking in and out! The staff were friendly and helpful. The location was in walking distance to Stortford, half an hour for me.

Cons: Servicing of the room, or lack thereof. The sparseness of the room fittings and the absence of an aircon. I got an impression is that the hotel is the older and poorer sister of the nearby Ramada (although the Ramada room I had previously had its own problems with, at first, a non-functioning aircon, then a rattling one when it did). Perhaps the group owning both hotels is still suffering from the Covid-inspired lockdowns but some maintenance is in order.

Pros: Next to the airport I was traveling from and back to with parking at a reasonable price whilst I was away.

Cons: All good for what I required.

Pros: easy to park, great location, bargain price!

Cons: a little noisy but not terrible.

Pros: All fine

Cons: Bed was a bit lumpy in places

Pros: Quick and easy

Cons: I had the elephants from jungle book marching the room upstairs at mid night

Pros: Close to airport after late night flight return to UK

Cons: No frills. In need of a little TLC and updating.

Pros: Good location if you have to fly out of Stansted the following morning, girl on front desk very helpful and pleasent.

Cons: No eating facilites, ate in the Ramada next door which was very poor, very much a one night necessity stay hotel.

Pros: Nice staff doing their best.

Cons: Dirty net curtains with cigarette holes in them. Absolutely unforgiveable neglect of basic needs of acceptable decor. Disrespect for customers. Contempt almost.

Pros: location and transfer availability

Cons: rooms could have been a little more "kept"....in other words, a bit of money would be well spent in tarting up the rooms

Pros: The trees outside looked nice.

Cons: We couldn’t get any drinks when we arrived or even milk for the tea as the reception worker said it had been locked up and he couldn’t open it. The floor in the bath room was dangerously slippy as soon as we got to the room, without even having turned any taps/shower on etc. The hotel communal area and the room both smelt strange. Both my partner and I woke up the morning having been bitten by something in the night. Look like we were bitten by bed bugs.

Pros: Great location to Stansted Airport. Comfortable beds. Hot shower.

Cons: Smoke alarm went off because of the shower! Dirty tissues in a couple of cupboards.

Pros: Room was large. Location is ideal for the airport. Reception staff were friendly when they were there.. I can’t say much more I’m afraid. That’s all.

Cons: Fire alarm went off twice in the middle of the night. Rooms are not the cleanest (I kept my socks on), also some hairs in the bathroom.. Reception is hardly ever manned so hard to get any answers. 3G/4G or phone signal not great in the area (O2) and wifi at hotel is useless.

Pros: Airport shuttle was convenient.

Cons: It was satisfactory.

Pros: Friendly staff. Clean room. Short walk for food(Thai)

Cons: A bar and food

Pros: Not a lot

Cons: Blocked sink . A mattress that must have been a hundred years old. Loose or broken bathroom fittings. The whole place utterly shabby. Thank goodness only there for 1 night. Seemed like a halfway house for some less fortunate

Pros: Welcoming.

Cons: Price of the taxi, lack of transportation to the airport.

Pros: nothing

Cons: arrived and a family was arguing. finally a lady to to check us in . No conversation to make us welcome. no hand towels. less than quarter toilet roll. shower head did not stay fixed and sprayed everywhere. shower curtain not long enough to keep water in. took ages for water to drain away. thought it was going to over flow. no tea spoon to stir any sugar. only one pillow each . could not turn heating off so had to keep windows open. was definitely not a quiet stay.

Pros: Was a lovely room looked very nice but The room was full of bugs and spiders there was heap loads of dust under the bed indicating it hadn’t been cleaned for at least 2 years, I took photographs and videos of all the bugs I had found, I even found one on the bed…. I was there for the whole of half an hour and I left due to the fact my fiancée has athesma and dust really isn’t good for it plus the bugs where everywhere and I refuse to sleep with thousands of bugs.

Cons: They need to hire cleaners rat actually clean and move the bed to clean underneath and they need pest control,

Ok, where to start,...no bar or restaurant, no heating in room apart from a tiny electric radiator, vinyl floor made it impossible to get warm, dirty toilet pan, hot water took ages to get through... enough? When I complained to the woman who was running the reception, I was transferred to the sister hotel, De Salis, about a mile away. This was very basic and dated, but everything worked ok, and the kitchen, despite being very limited in what they offered, served really very nice food, so come here first, and avoid Stansted Lodge like you would COVID!

Pros: Nothing special. A bit dirty. Had to have the window open because it was so hot, but when i got there the window was already open. I would consider staying again.

Pros: The hotel is located close to Stansted airport BUT...

Cons: DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL or DeSalis. I have given fair (good) reviews to most of the hotels where I have stayed in the past. My reviews can be seen in Agoda, Booking, Kayak and I am a Platinum member with Marriott hotels. What did I not like about this hotel? I encountered the rudest and most disrespectful staff I've ever dealt with. As soon as I walked in the guy at the front desk yelled at my girlfriend and I for leaving the car parked (momentarily) in the only area available (we did this to confirm that we had a room before unloading our suitcases) If you're driving, bear in mind that the hotel has two decent parking spots, otherwise you'll end up leaving your car in the back of the building which seems dark and unsafe. The guy then said that he didn't see our reservation and sent us to a DIFFERENT HOTEL without even apologizing for the ordeal. The new hotel was called DeSalis and it was OK at first sight but we were given a nasty and old room in the back of the building. The room smelled like and old and humid warehouse. The bed was uncomfortable and you had to hold the shower with one hand as it wasn't attached to the wall. Further, we were told the restaurant closed at 11pm but we showed up at 10.35pm and they said that the kitchen was closed. Bear in mind that the closest restaurant is 15 minutes away from DeSalis. Outcome? We ate chips and drank cheap wine at 11.30pm in our nasty and uncomfortable room after driving 4 hours from Manchester. Overall, this was the worst experience I've ever had not with one but two hotels. I am sure other people have enjoyed their stays but I hope you guys keep in mind my comments if you want to avoid being THAT couple that doesn't their last night in such a lovely country! I want to leave on a good note so I will once again mention that both hotels are less than 8 minutes away from the aiport.

Pros: Great, cheap and located near the airport !
