Perfect location for a stay in Ironbridge, only 10 minute walk along the River to the mains shops etc. Staff are really friendly, lots of free parking spaces which is always a bonus. Room was lovely and clean, the full English breakfast was one of the best we've ever had. Will definitely stay again next time we're in Ironbridge.

Location was good, good selection of food and drinks, breakfast was excellent
Toilet holder needs fixing (room 5) and noisy with windows open as directly onto the road. Requires bigger wardrobe/or.drawers for clothes.

Location was on the river seven, short walk to the Iron Bridge. Food was nice.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
The staff were lovely, and the restaurant is really nice. The room was reasonably clean and nicely decorated.
I paid extra for a room which was described as having an extra large bed. When we arrived, it was a standard double, and really soft as well, so there was a lot of roll together during the night.
