Stayed for the weekend We felt it was a very nice spot, near to town but far enough to be peaceful. Friendly staff, and amazing breakfast cooked just how we asked for. The rooms had what you needed for the night although I felt a little bit small. Flat screen TV, Tea and coffee, hair dryer and some smellies in... More

Me and my partner stayed in this hotel from Wednesday to Saturday, so a pretty long time really. It has a great location, easily reachable from the train station and close to all local shops and bars and restaurants. We went on the train to the hotel so obviously did not have a car but still found most things very... More

The owners of the B&B are very welcoming. The breakfast was superb, with a good selection of cereal fruit yoghurt, plus a full English breakfast. Couldn't fault it. The bedroom/bathroom was slightly dated but clean and comfortable bed and pillows, so met all our needs. It is very close to the centre of Shewsbury, with all the lovely shops, bars... More

A warm welcome from the owners, lovely quiet room (had asked for a quiet room, and got a double bed in a single room), delicious freshly cooked breakfast, as well as a good selection of cereals, fruit, yoghurt. I had also booked a parking space which is a very good plus in a town centre hotel. Shrewsbury is a lovely... More

Well situated - 5 mins walk from city centre and 100 yards from excellent riverside walk. The staff are very friendly and the breakdast was good - fresh fruit salad and top quality sausage/bacon. Whilst the room was clean, it was small, basic and tired. There was late night noise from 2 nearby pubs - one night was enough, Beware... More

LOCATION ... A three-minute walk takes you right into the heart of historic Shrewsbury with its cobbled streets and Tudor buildings, and to the main shopping streets. CAR PARKING ... There are 12 private car-parking spaces, but it's double-parking. This means that, if you're blocking-in a fellow guest's car, you have to leave your car keys at Reception if you... More

This does have more of a boarding house feel due to its size and the air fresheners! However it was fine for an overnight stay - the owners are very welcoming, the room was compact but had everything you expect, tiny bathroom but all very clean. Good breakfast in nice dining room. Only 10 parking spaces but large car park... More
