Shrewsbury hotels near Shrewsbury Castle

Pros: The Townhouse was in a perfect location. The bedroom and bathroom were spotless and the bed very comfortable. We cannot say enough about the staff they were so friendly and helpful. There is also a beautiful garden where you can relax. The breakfast was cooked to perfection with plenty of choice. The dining area is very well presented.Shrewsbury is the most wonderful town to visit.

Cons: Loved everything.

Pros: Great welcome for us and our dog. We upgraded but the room was a bit small and all surfaces seemed to be covered with literature. My only complaint was no gluten free bread for breakfast when they had so much warning including when we arrived. But the staff in the sister restaurant The Loopy Shrew were lovely and welcoming to us including our dog.

Pros: Breakfast was excellent, freshly cooked local produce. Staff very friendly and attentive to our needs. Handy location, within walking distance of town centre and local restaurants etc. Lovely garden for quiet drink in the evening. Hotel decor was lovely and in keeping with the theme of Charles Darwin. Would consider booking again.

Cons: Only gripe was the mattress was not particularly comfortable, but that is a personal comment. It may have suited others.

Pros: Breakfast was excellent . Honesty bar a great option.

Cons: 2 chairs in the room would be good.

Cons: Rooms were dusty and musty. Place was lovely but stale.

Pros: Beautifully decorated and furnished. Real style and thought without being a cliche.

Pros: Everything was as expected. Nice room and en suite. Breakfast was great as were the staff

Cons: Nothing really just some paintwork on windows needs attention

Pros: We concur with other reports that the breakfast was outstanding. We really cannot see how it could be any better. Lots of choice and freshly cooked hot dishes. The staff were super friendly, and again, you could not ask for more. Our room was fairly small but vey nice and the ensuite was very clean. They also have a great 'honesty box' system for buying drinks and refreshments. So all in all, very good indeed

Cons: We had arranged for some friends to visit us one evening, and as it was hot, we decided to have a drink in the garden (which is very nice by the way). However just after we sat down, my wife felt something snag her trousers, only to find that there was a sharp piece of metal protruding from the chair which had pierced a hole in her trousers, but the good news was that it did not tear the fabric. However one of our guests was not so lucky, because a similar sharp protruding piece of metal on her chair actually tore her trousers. I reported this to a senior member of staff who apologised for the damage caused. Following this i check the other similar chairs (they were not all of the same design) and 4 out of 8 had this dangerous fault. I turned the offending chairs over to avoid anybody else suffering a similar fate, only to find the following morning, that the said chairs being placed upright again! When i broached this subject again, i was told that they would have them looked at and that they would fit cushions. I have to say that i was a little disappointed with the overall response and suspect that other guests suffering a similar fate my not have been so forgiving. This event slightly tainted what was otherwise a very pleasant stay at this hotel. It was also rather embarrassing for us that one of our friends had her trousers ruined through no fault of her own.

Pros: Location - close to a lovely river walk and attractions. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Very central setting. Welcoming owners.

Cons: Parking is an issue in the mornings

Pros: The bathroom tiles and the wifi

Cons: I found the brekfast staff unpleasant. It seemed as if he didn't want to be there - he keep banging the plates and cups about - in fact another breakfaster commented upon this. He was quite grumpy. Maybe he should look for a new job. The cleaning lady and the young girl were much nicer.

Pros: Good location, close to shops, restaurants and attractions but on a quiet(ish) road; easy to come and go when we wanted and a car park nearby.

Cons: Service a bit uninspired; certainly not the friendliest hotel we have stayed in. Decor a bit tired and old fashioned.

Pros: I only stayed one night, but my overall impression was of an efficiently run hotel.

Cons: There was nothing I disliked.

Pros: Queit cozy place but within few minutes of town square. Family-run informality, excellent breakfast.

Cons: The breakfast window of 8-9 on a Sunday was too early, too short. The room cleaners also worked only till 11 on Sunday which was surprising.

Cons: The bar menu was not available on Sunday evenings. The water in shower was exceptionally hot, there was no warning notice. The door to the shower would be better if it opened outward instead of inward, a health and safety issue.

Pros: Unique 14th century place in centre of town close to railway

Cons: No useful mirror in walnut bedroom

Pros: Location

Cons: The alarms going off several times including at night

Pros: The charachter of the hotel along with modern facilities

Pros: Location was perfect, right in the town centre, only five minutes from the train station.

Cons: View from living room area was a brick wall and the view from the bedroom was a small outside bar area which was very noisy at times. The radiator in the living room area was left on , we were unable to switch it off, room was stifling as it was height of summer. Only went for breakfast the one day, Saturday morning, husband asked for toast and bacon, he got one slice of seeded bread ,already buttered and only toasted on one side with a few rashers of streaky bacon ,very disappointed. Overall disappointed with the room location in the hotel and breakfast poor quality, resulting in us only going the once for our breakfast.

Pros: Very pleasant location. Excellent service.

Pros: The staff were very welcoming. Cat (manager) was very helpful, although it appeared there was a problem with our 2 room booking, he was happy to accommodate us. The bedroom / ensuite was freshly renovated. The bed was very comfortable and the pillows were light a fluffy. Breakfast service was efficient and the food was delicious. The restaurant and bar area has a lovely feeling. The selection of gins was great. The draught ale was excellent.

Pros: Amazing historical building . Lovely room overlooking courtyard. Freshly cooked breakfast.

Pros: Great location for visiting Shrewsbury. Room was very comfortable although the smallest room with a very compact en-suite. Bed was comfortable and facilities provided were more than adequate. All the staff were very friendly and professional. The restaurant food was amazing and the tasting menu sublime! The Front of House Manager really knows his stuff with food and wine matching!

Cons: Not much not to like! Shame there is not its own car park but a downside of such a central location. However, hotel has got a good arrangement for a reduced fee with a small car park nearby.

Pros: The bedrooms and breakfast room are enchanting. Staff friendly and exceedingly helpful. Central location.

Cons: Access: Being in the heart of a beautiful mediaeval town centre, one can understand that access by car can be a bit problematic, especially when the main streets appear to be closed off. Perhaps the hotel could give a bit more guidance on exactly how to get to them. That said, the parking valet accompanied me to where I'd parked my car 5mins away, and guided us to the right spot (before parking the car in the hotel car park for us). A mini fridge, please: Could they provide fridges in the room? One of us had some medication that had to be kept cool. However, they kindly let us leave stuff with them to be put in a fridge. Lift: They only appear to have one lift (though they might have another hidden away), and it's a little cramped, (but with lovely carpetted walls!)

Pros: Breakfast was well cooked and well presented. Parking arrangements worked well

Cons: The bedroom could do with some freshening up but the bathroom was superb

Pros: Excellent breakfast and evening meal. The hotel is right in the middle of Shrewsbury.

Pros: everything, cant fault it

Cons: nothing

Cons: Old, tired room. Look great on a 1980s drama. High windows like in a prison cell, that overlooked the pub beer garden next door, which there were people in until after 3am so I literally got no sleep.

Pros: Setting, staff, all fantastic.

Breakfast was served in the conservatory of the hotel and was cooked to order with waitress service. This was a beautiful place to eat, white table clothes and food was excellent. We would happily stay here again when visiting Shrewsbury.
