Shrewsbury hotels near St. Mary's Church

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: The staff were extremely friendly and professional.The breakfast was delicious with an extensive choice.I would definitely recommend this hotel and will be revisiting .

Pros: Very central, near river, shops etc. Close to a public car park though it didn't have its own. Quiet location.

Cons: Our room was somewhat smaller/more basic than we'd hoped. The main issue I had was lack of sound insulation, coupled to noisy plumbing. I know for a fact that the folk above us went to the loo more than 10 times in the night - because I heard their footsteps, and the noise of the flush (no other noises, fortunately!!!) that many times...disappointing. I suspect we got the last, least desirable room as this place is generally well reviewed. Suggest you ask for an upstairs room if you are in the garden block. Also I was a bit doubtful about the Tandoori restaurant next door which was emitting traditional indian food smells when we arrived but in fact it didn't permeate our room, even though we had a window open. But we were about as far away from that as you could get.

Pros: This gem of a hotel is well situated close to the centre of Shrewsbury. With huge character, a secret garden, lovely friendly staff, comfortable bed, delicious food.

Cons: I wouldn’t change a thing.

Cons: Car parking difficulty

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: There was nothing I disliked.

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

Pros: Comfortable bed. Lots of clean white towels. Interesting old building. Handy for river.

Cons: Noisy (near building site and pubs). Instant coffee with breakfast. Lots of stairs to climb with suitcase. Overpowering "air fresheners". No thermostat on radiator. Owner not particularly friendly.

Pros: Excellent breakfasts. Staff were very helpful especially our waitress at breakfast. Room was very well equipped with fridge and coffee maker. Bed was comfortable and towels were thick and fluffy.

Cons: Need to ensure that bowls aren’t chipped at breakfast and that chocolate brownie supply is replenished in the rooms. Also need to replace non working light bulbs.

Pros: ..

Cons: Nothing, excellent. Very friendly, staff very respectable, well tutored. Whish all my hotels that I vacate were as enjoyable. 11 out of 10. I Doff my cap to the owner.

Cons: Noisy busy road outside, couldn’t sleep because of traffic noise

Pros: Bar staff and breakfast staff were great.

Cons: Waiting staff at dinner weren't very knowledgeable of the menu and weren't very engaging. I noticed they were having to defer to the senior staff regularly - perhaps a bit more training needed.

Pros: Centrally located and room 1 we stayed in is spacious and functional. Downstairs bar facility cozy.

Cons: As per the signs in the bathroom, if you like for guests to reuse their towels, make sure the towel heaters work. Cont. Breakfast buffet was basic, but hot breakfast good. Parking 500m down the road, and if you can’t climb steep narrow staircases, don’t book 2nd floor rooms.

Pros: Great location, staff very friendly and helpful. Lovely breakfast and meals!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location, the welcoming, the good food at the pub downstairs, the room, the atmosphere of the place.

Cons: The bathroom smelled of mould unfortunately.

Pros: A great central location.

Cons: The room was listed as having a private external bathroom which was some distance from the room. Breakfast was on the small side.

Pros: Friendly welcome that continued throughout my stay excellent breakfast clean and comfi room

Pros: Excellent! Beth could not have been more helpful, fantastic girl! Parking suggestions given but some distance from The Old Post Office; a few spaces around the corner but £2.40 per hour!

Cons: A light near/above the shaving mirror and a shaving electric socket would be useful. Also a glass for drinking water. The pub is really quirky--good!--but anyone with limited mobility should be warned about the numerous stairs up and down.

Pros: Staff were great, really professional and very kind - great location very central, bags of character & room was very clean, nice fresh breakfast.

Cons: There were so many staircases to get to our room it felt like I was trapped in an Escher painting! And read description carefully- some of the rooms had. “Private bathroom” note these are not en-suite but sited further down the public corridor. Also check is not until 3pm, this made for a late start to wander round town and stat sightseeing- there is a luggage room but always feels more hospitable if you can check in to freshen up after a long drive.

Pros: not very good

Pros: The breakfast and the location

Cons: The kareoke kept me awake and I couldn't then get off to sleep.

Pros: Good English breakfast served in the back of the pub. The location was almost ideal in the historic area, though a bit of a haul from the train station. We were able to get a cab for just 4 pounds though. The staff was very friendly and we liked being upstairs from the pub. Staff let us use their phone for local calls. Pub food was not great, but as expected at this type of neighborhood pub. Good value for the money.

Cons: Our room was basically an attic -- sort of quaint, but also cramped and rather dark with a view of roofs. Hauling the bags up there was no fun. The lighting was very poor and there was almost no place to unpack at all. Twin beds were exceptionally narrow. We had a private bath, but it was across the hall and not especially nice. Our daughter got a much nicer double bedded room on the first floor, so be sure to ask in detail about rooms and bed sizes.

Pros: I love quaint B&Bs. This place is 600 years old. It was quite a spacious room for 1 as I could unpack on the 2nd bed. I had dinner there which was good and a reasonable price. Breakfast was good too and the various guests chatted with each other. The bathroom was mine alone but around the corner which didn't bother me. Someone with mobility problems would have trouble getting to the room though. I only had one night but feel I could happily stay there for a week puttering around in Shrewsbury.

Cons: The chair which I had to pull up to the desk to work on my laptop fell over backwards every time I got up - only slightly annoying. It would be better to have an additional desk chair.

Pros: Couldn’t fault the cleanliness of the inn.

Cons: Mattress had all but collapsed on one side and we asked if we could change rooms they said it was no problem at all .

Pros: Room and food

Cons: Some noise from bar after midnight. When mentioned they did make sure it didn't happen the following night.

Pros: The bed and pillows were super comfy. Breakfast was delicious. We had a light lunch and that was amazing. We would definitely come back for a drink & meal if we visited Shrewsbury again. Really loved that we had a free drinks voucher for the bar.

Cons: Welcome could be improved. Not asked about our journey, why we were here, nothing! Just showed to our room and that was it. We Didn’t realise you get 10% off food & drinks purchased until the next morning when we were leaving. Maybe just a mention to other guests in future as we missed it. Probably our fault for not reading back of door.

Pros: Very quirky old pub. Great outside area

Cons: Darker curtains

Pros: A lovely old building right in the town. Great food and service throughout my stay. Lovely courtyard for morning coffee or later drinks. Parasol have heaters and throws are provided.

Cons: Needs a little tlc

Pros: Lovely friendly staff. Nothing was too much.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: All of the staff were excellent. Very friendly and helpful. The room, albeit quite small was very clean and comfortable. The food was very tasty and overall our stay there was incredibly good value. The location is ideal. Our new favorite place to stay in Shrewsbury!

Cons: Really can’t think of anything!

Pros: The staff are all lovely and very helpful. The breakfast was tremendous and the pub at night was really nice.

Cons: The hotel unfortunately has some issues with doors slamming as soft closers broken (New owner aware and going to fix) bathroom wasn't overly clean, someone had left empty shampoo bottle on top of shower and heated towel rail really grubby. Bed could feel springs through and pinged when you moved lol.

Pros: Great reception from the staff. Good full English breakfast and a free welcome drink on arrival.

Cons: The rooms were small but definitely adequate for the price paid. Windows (internal) could do with updating to better block out sound.

Pros: Excellent breakfast and hospitality would definitely stay again couldn't

Cons: Couldn't fault it

Pros: Very comfortable bed friendly staff good breakfast also let us leave our car in car park after we had checked out

Cons: Nothing lovely stay will be back

Pros: Location, staff and parking

Cons: None

Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Pros: The owner was friendly and welcoming. He was most attentive.

Cons: The building is lovely and the location excellent. However, the decor is far too dated for this price. It needs a revamp...felt it was a disappointment.

Pros: Good room, had private court yard. Great location 5 minutes away from English bridge into town and the Abbey. Amazing breakfast. 1st class - best I've had in a while. Nice and quiet, private parking and great pub just over the road servo g decent food at a reasonable price.

Cons: The only down side was a very creaky headboard which made a noise with the smallest of movements, which kept my partner awake

Pros: The breakfast was excellent

Cons: nothing, it was all very good

Pros: Friendly staff, quiet location and plenty of parking space

Cons: Long walk into town. More mains sockets would be good

Pros: The location

Cons: VERY SMALL BED, dirty bathroom.

Pros: Excellent central location

Cons: Too many stairs up to room but room was spacious and spotless.

Pros: Location was great , right in the middle of the town

Cons: The shower had quite a bit of mold around the floor and the price for such a small room and bed was a bit much, £90, especially with no breakfast included

Cons: We, and two other couples, made our reservations through booking.com which showed reasonable reviews and affordable prices for accommodation. On arrival, we were greeted by some very friendly, young staff, who had been told by management to request payment "up front in order to protect ourselves" - at that point, alarm bells should have been ringing. On enquiring about evening meal menus & breakfast arrangements, we were told that the kitchen was shut and the chef had walked out, so we would have to dine elsewhere. The 3 rooms we stayed in were above the bar area, accessible only by two flights of stairs - with no lift. The room my wife and I stayed in was disgusting, apart from the bed which appeared to be clean: grimy shower with black mould stains on the shower tray and hair in the drain; ceilings with black mould, a dusty curtain above the bed screening a dirty, broken skylight; thick trail of dust above the headboard and tv; cobwebs; loose, trailing power cables next to the bed; a bedside cabinet whose top drawer was stained and lined with suspicious-looking black powder..... and so on! As a rule, on the rare occasion when we are unhappy with somewhere we have stayed or dined in, I ensure that staff are made aware of our concerns so that they can act on them. However, when we checked out from this place (at 10.30am), there were no members of staff to be seen anywhere and the bar was locked up; so, we had no opportunity to comment on our stay nor even to check out securely. To be blunt, this place is not fit to be listed for accommodation, especially at £76.50 per room per night - a rip-off. Please avoid this place at all cost and do what we didn't do: scrutinise accommodation details & reviews very carefully prior to booking.

Pros: Located in town center, go to anywhere easily

Pros: Staff were nice, good location.

Cons: No kitchen as they were renovating, so no breakfast available.

Cons: I booked in at 1pm shown to my room paid my bill. Went out shopping and on my return at5. 30was locked out of the hotel. All doors locked, blinds down and no one in. At6. 30 pm rang the police as I had house keys, medication, phone charger etc still inside the hotel. Police suggested I went to a and E for my medical condition.when it was dark at 7.30, I decided to walk into a friendly bar for help. The barman contacted a sister hotel, being the st nicholas Chapel Hotel and the owner gave me a bed for the night. I am 70yrs old, travelling alone and it ended up as an appalling and dangerous situation to be in. Your comments would be appreciated

Pros: The room was a decent size and the beds were clean and comfortable. The overall cleaning was very good. The location is very central.

Cons: It was a very hot day and with no air conditioning (there was a fan) we had to have the windows open. Building work started at 06:30 opposite and was extremely noisy. The blind in the bathroom needs replacing the closer was broken. A small fridge would have been a welcome addition to the room. We hadn't been advised that the kitchen was not in use so we had to go elsewhere for breakfast.

Pros: Convenient, clean and comfortable

Cons: Its a shame they don’t offer breakfast on the premises

Pros: Location was good

Cons: Lack of cleanliness. Dirty toilet on arrival. Litter in the bed. No room change on Sunday.
