One thing I’d note is use the ear plugs left on the glass jar next to the bed, the high street can get busy in the early hours. ##### Scott Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### PETER ANTHONY 7 Jul 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Overpriced Hotel Rooms described as Boutique, but I found nothing special about my room.

Great value for money. Our room and bathroom were very clean, quiet and comfortable. We heard nothing from the pub below. The location is great, with very short walks to beautiful areas of town. There was a lovely array of breakfast choices included for free with the room charge; we had vegetarian eggs Benedict, coffee/tea & juice. Our main suggestion is to provide a standing fan on warmer evenings. Also, the comfy duvet was just too hot so a plain sheet would have been great. ##### Amanda Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### David 17 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely place - loved the originality of the building.

The restaurant has excellent food along with great atmosphere. Our room was great & the bed was very comfortable. The only regret we had was the fact we had to check out early the next morning & couldn’t stay longer. We will definitely be back! ##### Kris Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 6 Jul 2025 #### Decent, but not a seamless Decor is nice, location is good. Loopy Shrew is a full-on bar so if you want to get to sleep before midnight on a weekend, you might struggle here. Matress was very comfy, drains a bit smelly in the bathroom. Breakfast was good, but staff seemed a little rushed. Check out was confusing, due to an issue on their / Expedia's booking system they temporarily spooked us into thinking we hadn't paid, when we most definitely had. We got a great deal, so overall are happy... had it been full price - not sure we would have been. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark 8 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely B&B in town centre Had one night in a single on B&B basis while visiting family for a night out. Building is a pub in an old building with the upper rooms converted to accommodation. Although the room was small it was a masterpiece of how to use space and did. Not feel cramped in any way. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. With the property being on a main thoroughfare and a very busy pub a nice touch was the provision of earplugs. Breakfast was served in a restaurant area at the back of the pub. Unlike most hotel breakfasts you choose from a menu and it’s cooked fresh for you and was top quality. Staff were lovely, but a note of caution for nervous types there are no staff on site overnight, but a telephone number is provided in case of emergency. There is no onsite parking, but a public car park is available across the road. I travelled by train and the station is 10 minutes walk. ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle 1 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely room above a lively bar Nice clean room with a good selection of tea and coffee, miniature toiletries in the bathroom and a comfy bed. Lovely breakfast with good options for vegetarian and vegan diets. It is a bar with rooms above so just be aware that especially if staying fri or sat night it is going to be noisy. (They do provide complimentary ear plugs!) ##### Michelle Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 2 Jun 2024 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Disappointing rooms. Friendly staff, disappointing room that did not meet expectations of the photos; poor value for money. Good breakfast. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Carolyn 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We had a lovely but too short stay in the beautiful city of Shrewsbury. We loved The Loopy Shrew for breakfast and dinner and the Sleepy Shrew to rest our tired heads. We didn’t find the ear plugs on the first night but were pleased the music from the restaurant ended by 11:30 during the week. ##### Carolyn Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Crafted at Powdermills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Battle-Hotels-Powdermills-Country-House-Hotel.h195688.Hotel-Information) > > [Chimney House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sandbach-Hotels-Chimney-House-Hotel.h527768.Hotel-Information) > > [Mermaid, Ipswich by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ipswich-Hotels-Mermaid.h31883430.Hotel-Information) > > [Lock Keeper, Worksop by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worksop-Hotels-Lock-Keeper.h27479298.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stables Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Stables-Whitby.h23322490.Hotel-Information) > > [Samsara Retreat and Yoga - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-Samsara-Retreat-And-Yoga.h41349775.Hotel-Information) > > [Cromer Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cromer-Hotels-Cromer-Country-Club.h1927781.Hotel-Information) > > [The Skipton Hotel - Formerly Hotel Rendezvous](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skipton-Hotels-Hotel-Rendezvous.h41466.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Lythe Hill Hotel & Spa by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Haslemere-Hotels-Voco-Lythe-Hill-Hotel-Spa.h517258.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Canterbury](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Canterbury-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Canterbury.h66541221.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Rose Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Appleby-In-Westmorland-Hotels-Wild-Rose-Caravan-Park.h24459296.Hotel-Information) > > [Skegness The Royal Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel-Skegness.h23931999.Hotel-Information) > > [Soar Mill Cove Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Soar-Mill-Cove-Hotel.h2042032.Hotel-Information) > > [Seven Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Southend-On-Sea-Hotels-Seven-Hotel.h19282555.Hotel-Information) > > [Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-Milton-Hotels-Chewton-Glen-Hotel-Spa.h528432.Hotel-Information) > > [OYO Shanklin Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Shanklin-Hotels-OYO-Shanklin-Beach-Hotel.h7539838.Hotel-Information) > > [Bear Lodge - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Bear-Lodge-Aspinall-Foundation.h40101484.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Camping Pods - At Port Lympne Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hythe-Hotels-Pinewood-Apinall-Foundation.h40101599.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Signature Sheffield Quays Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sheffield-Hotels-The-Quays-Hotel-Sheffield.h46197620.Hotel-Information) > > [The Swan Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wells-Hotels-The-Swan-Hotel.h26791.Hotel-Information) > > [The Aviator, formerly Smugglers Cove, Clacton On Sea by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Clacton-On-Sea-Hotels-Smugglers-Cove-By-Marstons-Inns.h35853904.Hotel-Information) > > [Yeoldon House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bideford-Hotels-Yeoldon-House.h2764122.Hotel-Information) > > [Brock Cottage private Hot Tub DOG/Cat FRIENDLY\* with on site fishing](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pickering-Hotels-Spacious-Stone-Cottage-DOG-FRIENDLY.h36805890.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton London Elstree](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Borehamwood-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-London-Elstree.h18549.Hotel-Information) > > [Exeter Rougemont hotel by Sunday](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exeter-Hotels-Exeter-Rougemont-Hotel-By-Sunday.h7784.Hotel-Information) > > [Crow Wood Hotel & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burnley-Hotels-Crowwood-Hotel-Spa-Resort.h38222710.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Leicester by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leicester-Hotels-Voco-Leicester.h76596043.Hotel-Information) > > [Canterbury Bell, Margate by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Broadstairs-Hotels-Canterbury-Bell.h33103125.Hotel-Information) > > [Wild Thyme & Honey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-Wild-Thyme-Honey.h9241983.Hotel-Information) ---
