The doorway is adorned with Ionic columns and a moulded entablature. On the upper floor, there are ten sash windows with moulded stone dressings. In front of the hotel and over the entrance, there are early 19th-century cast iron railings. The Trout Hotel and the nearby Grecian Villa form a group with Wordsworth House on Main Street.
