5/5 Excellent
Lovely stay in the heart of Wales
"The hotel was good and had the right facilities
Only issue is that the heating is not controlled in the room and the fan provided was noisy so had to open the windows onto the main road to get an airflow
Otherwise the staff were super
The parking is fun to locate but do your research first otherwise its a trek to drive around town to enter the parking via the one way street "

"Very comfortable stay. Nice pool, nice room with opening window for fresh air.
But, most importantly, every single member of staff was exceptionally friendly and polite - and they all work hard. Service really good, restaurant food is amazing. Each meal I tried (for the week) was spot on. Especially the duck! Prices very reasonable imho.
Also, in the bar open during the day, small breakfast options such as baps are available.
Really nice overall feel."
A verified traveller stayed at The Telford Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort
"It was a very fun hotel and has a pool ans small steam and sauna ans tiny jacuzzi. The spa changing are was basic. The room ans bathroom was modern. The breakfast was reasonable for a 4 star with fried eggs the best bit and mini pastries tucked away in the corner- no queues etc either.
On check in and check out lots of towels or bedding littering hallways which didnt make a great 1st impression leading to the room. We came with kids and booked 2 rooms as they are small and i think only do cot beds not rollaways. Very close to station and shopping and the local costa."

Great hotel, lovely grounds, workout area horrible
"Staff were great, hotel in general good. The amenities pool, workout area, showers left me cold. The treadmills are dusty, dirty, screens did not work and were nasty. The entire room needs a thorough clean. We had a wonderful family breakfast and it was wonderful. "
A verified traveller stayed at Mercure Shrewsbury Albrighton Hall Hotel & Spa
"Came as part of the Eastercon contingent. I'm not usually a fan of ground floor hotel rooms but this one was great as was so easy to get to everything. For once remembered my swimming kit and so made sure I got a go in the pool/spa, last-minute as it all was. Overall had a really good time and very much enjoyed the food, and the gin selection!
Had completely forgotten the RAF Museum Cosford was nearby, so I got a bit of a tour and a bit of work done while I was at it. Most importantly, had a nice relaxing few days in a way I hadn't achieved so far this year, so bonus points for that. I shall return because I've a couple of things I didn't quite have time to do whilst here, like the trip to Ironbridge. "
