Fabulous place

Great location. Inviting exterior. Friendly welcome. Compact but comfortable room with everything you could need, including a good fan, hairdryer and iron. Breakfast was delicious, cooked to order and served with a smile. Absolutely could not fault anything about our stay and would definitely recommend

Overpriced Hotel

Rooms described as Boutique, but I found nothing special about my room. The bathroom was small and claustrophobic. The inclusive breakfast was excellent. Parking is very expensive and the car park local to the hotel is a max 2 hour stay

Clean Comfy, Good service, fair price

Very nice hotel comfy and clean staff were accommodating the breakfast in the morning was very good. One thing I’d note is use the ear plugs left on the glass jar next to the bed, the high street can get busy in the early hours.

Lovely B&B in town centre

Had one night in a single on B&B basis while visiting family for a night out. Building is a pub in an old building with the upper rooms converted to accommodation. Although the room was small it was a masterpiece of how to use space and did. Not feel cramped in any way. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. With the property being on a main thoroughfare and a very busy pub a nice touch was the provision of earplugs. Breakfast was served in a restaurant area at the back of the pub. Unlike most hotel breakfasts you choose from a menu and it’s cooked fresh for you and was top quality. Staff were lovely, but a note of caution for nervous types there are no staff on site overnight, but a telephone number is provided in case of emergency. There is no onsite parking, but a public car park is available across the road. I travelled by train and the station is 10 minutes walk.

6/10 Good

Decent, but not a seamless

Decor is nice, location is good. Loopy Shrew is a full-on bar so if you want to get to sleep before midnight on a weekend, you might struggle here. Matress was very comfy, drains a bit smelly in the bathroom. Breakfast was good, but staff seemed a little rushed. Check out was confusing, due to an issue on their / Expedia's booking system they temporarily spooked us into thinking we hadn't paid, when we most definitely had. We got a great deal, so overall are happy... had it been full price - not sure we would have been.

A great central location in a lively pub with great staff and food. The room itself is looking a bit tired and needs a refresh and a good carpet clean but was a good size and bed was comfortable.
Philipa, 1-night trip

Good town centre location. Close to amenities & restaurants and bars. Lovely comfortable king size bed with good facilities the room.
Laura, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The bedding smelt musty / greasy. Noisy music from the bar below the room was very disruptive. Noise from other residents was disruptive. Bathroom tiling around bath shower was badly maintained / dirty. Bathroom door had dropped and was badly scraping on the floor. Communal areas / stairs are very scruffy. Coffee at breakfast was undrinkable.

Disappointing rooms.

Friendly staff, disappointing room that did not meet expectations of the photos; poor value for money. Good breakfast.

This is a lovely hotel! The restaurant has excellent food along with great atmosphere. Our room was great & the bed was very comfortable. The only regret we had was the fact we had to check out early the next morning & couldn’t stay longer. We will definitely be back!

Lovely room above a lively bar

Nice clean room with a good selection of tea and coffee, miniature toiletries in the bathroom and a comfy bed. Lovely breakfast with good options for vegetarian and vegan diets. It is a bar with rooms above so just be aware that especially if staying fri or sat night it is going to be noisy. (They do provide complimentary ear plugs!)

Holiday in Shrewsbury

The stay was excellent with friendly and helpful staff. Amazing food and the breakfast was second to none. The rooms were clean with good water pressure for showering. Some rooms were small but that’s just picking holes
