Great one-night stay

From check-in until we left, we had excellent service from all the staff who were friendly and very helpful. The room was large and the bathroom well equipped for our one-night stay. We would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

Good for overnight stay

Disabled parking is limited and too far from reception. Reception was efficient and friendly. Decent size room was adequately furnished but bed was too firm for my wife's and my arthritic joints! The clean shower room was a little small but had a badly broken floor tile near the wash basin. Breakfast had great choice and was excellent as was the service.

Good stopover location

A convenient stopover location, Somewhat isolated from other services so need to travel into Shrewsbury by car if you don’t fancy catering and want an evening meal. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Staff were welcoming and friendly.
