Paul United Kingdom

Stiles is always welcoming, comfortable, super clean and amazing breakfasts.

Kerry United Kingdom

Very friendly staff, great Location, beautiful rooms and views. Complimentary wine in the room. Amazing breakfast. Thought of everything right down to hear pads for straighteners and a special make up remover flannel. Shoe stand and coat hooks outside the room for muddy and wet boot etc. Would certainly recommend the place and stay here again.

Kerry United Kingdom

Room was very comfortable, and the breakfast was lovely.

Judith United Kingdom

A really exceptional place run by a wonderful, warm and friendly family team. Lovely room and facilities. Perfect location. Brilliant food. Knowledgeable, friendly and generous host. Every comfort. We are so glad to have found Stiles and will definitely stay again.

Dan United Kingdom

The breakfast was superb. The room was furnished to a very high standard. There were loads of extras supplied including wine, water, a good supply of hot drinks and biscuits. The bathroom was stocked with good quality toiletries. It had good heating and an electric towel rail in the bathroom. The family were lovely and friendly but not intrusive. The family coffee shop provided us not just with breakfast but the best coffee we’d had for ages.

Pamela United Kingdom

The room was beautiful and clean with a gorgeous view. This is the 2nd time we have stayed in Shiraz ( July 2019 and September 2020 ) and found the room to be a little too warm on both occasions. The breakfast was plentiful and very tasty.

Joanne United Kingdom

Lovely staff, delicious food and gorgeous room. We would definately stay again.
