Great location and the hotel staff were lovely. Would stay again when we next visit Shrewsbury.
Pros:

The location was ideal with easy access to both the town and the park. Breakfast was also very lovely and the staff were friendly and very helpful.

Cons:

Parking was adequate but could be a problem at busier times. It would be good to know alternatives and how much that would cost when making the booking.

Comfortable, good breakfast, great location but noisy
Pros:

The breakfast was good but would have liked granary bread or a sourdough option, great to have a car park and great location

Cons:

Windows were very hard to close and open, very noisy as next to pubs and a road. Pillows need replacing very lumpy. Cobwebs in window, bathroom needs a deep clean. Cushions and bed runner needs replacing as worn and marked with spills. Had to have the shower head replaced as broken but was done immediately, no extra toilet rolls in bathroom but again this was rectified.
