ذا لايون هوتل شروزبيري

I was staying in Shrewsbury for a weekend company conference in Telford I love the old world charm of the place Will definitely recommend and probably stay again for next year's event The pic below was taken on route

Really tired and unloved. Having said that … it’s could be a stunnnng place to stay and is full of history.

Reception on arrival has the look of dark ages with dark wood panelling depicting a tudoresque style interior, it has a roomy layout from front to rear at ground level, warning to people with large suitcases, the entrance is via a rotating door. 1st floor is accessed by a staircase to the right of reception desk at which level there are 3-4 various choices of room stretches. There seems to be a large function/dining room at this level. Room I occupied was above the arch that allows cars to pass below to access parking. In itself the room was adequate and clean with furniture reflecting the Tudor theme, decent size built in wardrobe, bathroom needed refurbishment as taps were well used on sink and bath, shower was absolutely useless to balance heat, the window offered a view of the busy Y junction outside when open. Not a quiet frontage, but can imagine softens the noise to the rear. All this was adequate for my stay.

Very pleasant staff, pictures don’t do hotel justice, lovely old hotel with a museum vibe. Brilliant location. Will definitely return.

I was so sad to see such a wonderful old hotel not being used ! It is wonderful and would be great to see it renewed !!! I hope some investment can be put in to this lovely hotel

Warm period atmosphere hotel. Very clean, quiet and spaceous rooms. A few small steps to negotiate to room but no problem for us. Very good value. No meals or breakfast served but great location to walk to cafes and pubs. Also near town centre. Covered car park at hotel. Excellent discount for residents but be aware spaces limited and cannot be reserved. It is also available to non residents so can get busy. We would certainly return.

Mattress was slightly tilted, so it was as if the bed was on an incline. Heater was too strong and at night I don’t think that’s very healthy, woke up a bit dizzy. Location is nice. Also Wifi barely works on the second floor.

The mattress was probably as old as the building otherwise decent stay and worth the price.

Our room was chilly and as we were staying 6 nights we politely asked if we could get some heat to the radiator but staff said no heat in building yet but I'll try and get an electric heater it didn't arrive so 6 chilly nights!
