Disappointed
Pros:

The decor down stairs was nice.

Cons:

Long dreary corridor and 12 steps to get to the room. Staff were putting clean bedding on the carpet while getting more out of cupboards?
We arrived early for check in, but 40 minutes after check in time we got a room.
Bathroom needs re grouting bottom of shower and all the floor needs doing as well, lets the place down.
I asked for scrambled egg and a sausage , received the smallest portion of eggs I’ve ever seen, I asked for more hot tea as it had gone cold waiting for the food, the guy put another tea bag in the small tea pot and topped it up, so wasn’t hot but strong, I still had cold tea in the cup he didn’t bring another, poor service.
Had a very nice evening meal another hotel near by thankfully.
£7.50 for parking in their car park was steep, wouldn’t stay here again.

A wonderful historic hotel with some great modern amenities
Pros:

Beautiful historic building, with fantastic rooms (252). Great, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Only ate light bites from the bar menu, so can’t speak for restaurant, but these were great. Free on site parking in the heart of Ludlow, which itself is a beautiful historic town

Cons:

Nothing.

A real drop of history in a lovely old market town but doesn’t quite live up to its potential.
Pros:

Amazing historic building, smack in the centre of the town. Very nice food. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Accessible room hardly big enough to fit a wheelchair, though bathroom was good and really hot, with a very tricky window that could hardly be opened. Wine list really quite disappointing. Nothing even close to decent.

Our stay was just ok....
Pros:

The hotel has nice character and the staff were friendly. The location is good and is literally in the town.

Cons:

Unfortunately, our room had a slight sewage smell (which staff were very helpful with and gave us free drinks for our troubles as there were no free rooms). The room was very hot.
Breakfast was just ok.
Generally the hotel was ok, but I would say it is more a nice 3 star than 4 star.

Nice break in the centre of town and close to all amenities
Pros:

Breakfast good. Selection of fruit cereal etc. Hot food served to order. Service quick. Staff friendly. Restaurant food good.

Cons:

Tight parking. Once parked didn't dare leave for the day in case you couldn't get parked up again. Entrance particularly tight but can blame the hotel for that

Really interesting hotel, comfortable room - ask about stairs!
Pros:

Fascinating historic hotel, well modernised in appropriate style. Comfortable smart room with good bathroom and amenities.
Very nice dinner, continental breakfast choice was a bit disappointing for hotel of this quality. Good choice of cooked breakfast to order.
Friendly staff,
On site parking (limited).

Cons:

No warning that despite a lift, there were still a lot of stairs to navigate to our room due to the nature of the building. Since we had previously asked about Blue Badge parking, this was a surprise. Reception Louise apologised profusely and did her best to help.and

Brilliant
Pros:

Very old property that is beautifully kept original and clean. Some people might say that the floors creak, all I say is if you were 400 years old you would creak. It’s part of the charm.

Cons:

Nothing
