Liked: Cleanliness
A lovely, clean central hotel, but if you are in room 11 or 12, you have a large kitchen extractor fan outside your single-glazed window. We were told it's on from 8 am to 10 pm, but the hours were more like 6.40 am -11 pm

A lovely hotel with excellent staff. Located in the centre of the town. Car parking accross the road at a NCP car park. Not suitable for disabled people as lots of stairs and no lift. Had a shower over the high bath but no bath rail was there to help slipping. Food good and I would recommend this hotel.

Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean, the staff were friendly and accommodating to our needs. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options. Ideal location for walking around Shrewsbury, close to parking, river walks and the town centre.
