Perfectly pleasant in every way
Pros:

I liked everything about this place. It's central, the staff were extraordinarily cheerful and helpful, the breakfast was good and the rooms were very comfortable.

Cons:

Nothing. I really couldn't fault anything about the stay (I suppose the parking could be better, but with a great big pay and display lot just across the road, it was very simple and inexpensive to park).

Pros:

Friendly staff and a perfect location for the short walk into town with a good choice of bars and restaurants.

Cons:

The lighting in the room could have been brighter, and a more lightweight duvet would have been better for a warm June evening.

Happy, lovely people at Abbots Mead Jotel, set the seal for a great couple of days touring Shrewsbury
Pros:

The friendly staff,. Very central for all the tourist spots. The proprietor gave us loads of information including where to eat. The breakfast was great, lovely atmosphere shall definitely book here again.

Cons:

Perhaps the double bed it was was beautifully presented and clean but a tad small for us two.

Wonderful hotel in great location
Pros:

Parking was easy and the staff were welcoming and efficient. The location was amazing - walkable to everywhere in the town. Our room on the second floor was immaculately clean and well provided with storage and very comfortable beds. The bathroom was excellent. We slept very well. Breakfast was amazing with huge choice and delicious cooked options. This is an excellent hotel and we will return as soon as possible.

Cons:

Everything was excellent and we can't think of anything we didn't like.

Very Pleasant....
Pros:

This was a delightful stay. Lovely building, charming staff and breakfast was very nice. My dog enjoyed her stay enormously and was allowed everywhere without fuss which is rare, even in dog-friendly spaces - thank you.
Great location, right by the river but not far from little shops and food!

Cons:

Everything was amazing but the dining room did have a bit of an echo that maybe some soft furnishings could dampen - I'm being extra picky now!
