What people say
The owner is a very kind person, very professional and with a fantastic sense of humour! The acomodation is perfect for its purpose, very calm place, clean, cosy and easy to use. The self-service breakfast was also perfect. Really 15 minutes away from the airport walking and 2 minutes by car as described. Perfect for those who like the country-side style. I recomend!. Really clean room and bathroom and such a brilliantly close location I would definitely stay there again. The taxi transfer in the morning is equally helpful and made the whole thing easy.all reviews »

Easy access to stansted airport. The room was clean and tidy.The room, the location. after going through the (most stringent) immigration at Stansted airport, it is appreciated the the management is willing to wait for us - as I was afraid that I would reach SGH really late. It is really close to the airport and the SGH is really a comforting haven to rest. It is really cozy, and I like the idea that is is a house rather than a 'hotel' set.room was excellant with settee and lots of personal touches i felt quite at home quick transfer to and from airport with no extra charges have used them twice know and find it one of the best. The Hotel room was Huge, immaculate, beautiful and very warm. Got a free transfer from airport to hotel. The facilities were excellent. The staff was very warm and helpful.It was just 1 night and it was very good value clean and comfotable. The room was huge, very clean, the bathroom also was fine.yes, it a nice place and nice quest house boss. Helpful, friendly owner. This is really close to the airport; our room was clean and spacious as was the en-suite. the serve yourself breakfast was ideal for our early flight.It's a pity the pick-up and drop-off service to and from the airport was not available to us. That was the only minor quibble I had. However the taxi was easily arranged from the airport and at £6 was very reasonable. Highly recommended. the breakfast room was a great idea - and the unit and surrounding area was lovely - just a few short minutes from stansted airport.The unit was great too..Very helpful staff - gave good alternate directions as police had a lot of roads around the airport closed for some reason. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was very clean.It´s a quiet , littleehotel near airport. Very comfortable and clean.Easy to get to airport. Be far from the city.

The quietness and the room style.Friendly and helpful service. the shuttle to/from airport. Convenience of location. Quite location, very near to the airport but not under the flight path. Very clean and well looked after. Very pleasant countryside location. Would be good for staying there even if you want to visit other parts of England. Just get an Easybus to London from the airport, or why not a hire car, or just take another plane to Ireland or Scotland. Free transfer 2 and from airport.Convenience to Stansted airport. Because it's family run and the rooms have been thoughtfully equipped it has a warm atmosphere - a nice change from some of the larger hotel chains operating near to airports. easy access to airport. For a B and B the cost for a single room was good..The breakfast was very simple. Could have had a little more.variety. Location very good. Need transport to get there at night but no problemwalking to airport in the am. Room clean, functional and adequate. Having to far to go for an evening meal. Not good if you are mature and have problems with walking.not much sound insulation between floors which meant alot of noise from upstairs during the night.Could hear upsrairs television from our room. Pre-booked taxi that did not turn up. However, the owner kindly got up dressed and took four of us to the airport very quickly. Thankyou.no. No information about breakfast. No. It was rather cold that night and it took a while to warm up.A little bit impersonal. The breakfast is self service, and it is not as good as it is described in the web site.fire signal, because i sleep. Don;t know if there was any reception type area to relax in as we were only there for one night?. No. No hotel transfer on Thursdays. the noise of the planes. Sound (long mobile conversation) carried from hallway (stone floor) to our room directly above.very basic breakfast. Doesn´t have bath, only shower.noisy upper floor. Very basic breakfast, serials, plain white sliced bread, jam and marmalade. Orange juice, instant coffee. Feels a cheap for an otherwise great place. Very smelly air freshener in outhouse where we stayed. I'm asthmatic, it was not pleasant at all. 15 min walk to local pub if you need an evening meal. Otherwise you will have to take a taxi to the airport to get a snack or meal.I have stayed at Stansted Guest House several times now, I did notice that the mattresses were feeling a little less comfortable. The showers are adequate, but it's always nice to have a power shower (so a wish rather than necessity). Overall I still had a good night's sleep, so please take these comments as potential improvements rather than crticism.
