The Tontine is situated in a most prominant position opposite the famous Iron Bridge. The Hotel has a good history but, unfortunately, the building inside is now looking a little tired and in need of a lot of renovation to bring it up to the standard I would expect of such a large and important hotel in such a prominant...

First of all I would like to point out that the Tontine is actually more of a Public House/ B & B than a hotel. On entering we were greeted by a very friendly member off staff who offered to carry our bags up to our room which was located on the first floor. The room itself was very pleasant... More

My sister and I wanted to go and visit Ironbridge and have a relaxing little break. We stayed at the Tontine which really made the weekend. From the minute we walked in to the minute we left the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We were shown to our rooms which were beautifully clean and comfortable. The food was delicious...

My partner and I 'attempted' to stay at the Tontine during Easter Bank Holiday. Very loud music greeted us upon our return at 12.30am after having a great night out at Chez Maw - excellent restaurant. Gave the hotel the benefit of the doubt, thinking the music would be turned off at 1.00am - how wrong we were. At 1.30am... More

stayed a single night in Ironbridge Gorge at the Tontine, and it wasn't the best night. Our room was right above the doorway to the hotel, so all the smokers from the pub came out and talked, drank, and swore until late. As the hotel is so old, their isn't any sound protection, so we heard every word, (I learnt... More

Thank you for you recent review. I fully understand the point about the smokers. In an ideal world we would install double glazing but unfortunately this is a grade 2* listed building so it is not allowed. However we are currently introducing a new smoking area at the side of the building. I am unsure as to what u mean... More

We stayed 3 nights in the four poster room that looked centre on to the bridge. Comfortable clean room, excellent English breakfast included and a pub as well. We walked to most of the attractions in the area but got a taxi to the Blists Hill Victorian Village and then walked back to Tontine. Loved our stay and happy to... More
