The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury

8/10 Good

"The hotel was in a perfect location in the old town. A prominent hotel on the high street dating back to 17th century, lots of history attached to the hotel. The room was comfortable but in need of updating. An enjoyable stay in an historic building lots of atmosphere and character. Only disadvantage was the lack of breakfast although there are plenty of cafes nearby. I would certainly stay there again."

Albrighton Hall Hotel and Spa, a member of Radisson Individuals

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was enjoyable staff professional and friendly room small and a little dated and tired"

Holiday Inn Express Shrewsbury by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Check in was quick and welcoming. Parking was not an issue as I travelled by train, but there was a large car park. There was a nice seating area in addition to the restaurant. I did have a tile missing in the bathroom and the edge of the carpet was very dirty - not been hoovered for ages. Breakfast was good."
