Did not fancy eating at our nearby Hotel. Came across the Cross whilst out wandering and saw the menu in the passageway. The building looks late Medieval and has lots of charm. Considering it was mid-week, the restaurant was quite busy. I was drinking pints of Shropshire Gold off the pump - very nice. Menu was varied with some novel... More

I write this review not so much as a criticism but as a counter to the large number of 'very good' and 'excellent' reviews on Tripadvisor and to point out some of the negatives. We like the hotel and restaurant and since we first found it by accident it has become a special treat destination even if a long way... More

I was shocked so see some of these bad reviews, we visited Shrewsbury at the weekend, we had such a lovely time we decided to stay the night, Teresa who owns the golden cross was so welcoming! For the money it was amazing value for money for a city! We had an amazing stay and we are going to book... More

I rarely leave reviews but felt like I had to for this hotel. We changed our booking from another hotel and so glad we did. The hotel is amazing from the outside and in - if you're looking for a proper quirky, charming historic pub hotel experience, this is it. Not only was the decor, space, and room fantastic, but...

We stayed in the suite (room 1), we have never stayed anywhere like it, the upstairs bathroom is totally unique and there is lots of space downstairs in the bedroom/living room. Everything was splotless, we would happily recommend anyone to pay the extra money and stay in the suite, it is well worth it. The decor of the entire place... More

This is my second visit so far this year and as Arnie says "I'll be back" From the time we arrived we were made to feel most welcome, service extremely attentive and settled on a lovely table. The food was amazing, I opted for the black pudding scotch egg and I must say this was one of most fantastic starters... More

Had come across this hotel on a recent visit to Shrewbury so decided to book for new year. It didn't disappoint. All the staff were very friendly and couldn't have been more helpful, the bedroom was lovely, cosy, clean with lovely decor. The meal prices were a little more than I was used to paying but it was well worth... More

I was part of a group of 14 having a Christmas meal here. The table we were given was big enough for 10 at most and I was so cramped I could hardly reach my plate. I spoke to another woman in the queue for the single available toilet (for both sexes) who was having the same problem in the... More

Had lunch here recently and it's our new favorite place. Lovely restaurant with beautiful tasteful decor. Food was excellent and very well presented. Standard price for this quality of food and surroundings. Recommend the GC Hotel.
