Hotel Cromwell Stevenage – A Favorite for Families in Stevenage

Hotel Cromwell Stevenage is a converted 16th-century farmhouse that once housed John Thurloe, secretary to Oliver Cromwell. The property sits on Stevenage Old Town High Street, within walking distance of local pubs, shops, and eateries. An outside area with a gazebo offers a garden setting for wedding and event photographs.

Each of the 77 individually-styled rooms combines contemporary decor with preserved vintage charm. Guests can book single, double, or superior double rooms, with amenities including a TV, work desk, and tea and coffee making facilities. Family rooms are available for groups larger than two adults plus one child, though guests must contact the hotel directly to confirm this configuration.

The on-site British brasserie Rump and Wade serves breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner using locally sourced and freshly prepared modern British dishes. An extensive bar offers cocktails, real ales, and a selection of wines and champagnes. The hotel also hosts themed Afternoon Teas in collaboration with Sugar Boutique.

Dedicated wedding coordinators provide personalized event planning for ceremonies and receptions at the hotel. Venue spaces include the Bourchier Suite and the Cromwell Suite, with capacities for intimate family dinners or larger celebrations of up to 80 guests. The hotel also offers meeting and banquet facilities for business gatherings and private dining.

The hotel is a 10-minute drive from Knebworth Park and within a 30-minute drive from Duxford Imperial War Museum.
