The Old Bell is outside the centre of Shrewsbury on a major road. However, I did not find noise a problem. The setting is attractive, and there are a number of other pubs nearby (there is a CAMRA recommended pub crawl covering the area) and cafes and restaurants in the vicinity of Shrewsbury Abbey. My single room was clean and well-appointed, with all the facilities one would expect. I had two meals in the pub downstairs, which were reasonably priced pub fare. The staff were friendly and helpful. The price of £89.00 for two nights' accommodation was very reasonable by local standards.
My room was perhaps a little cramped and lacked storage space. Though tea- and coffee-making facilities were provided, the kettle set off the fire alarm in my room at 6:30 am on my first morning! Fortunately, there did not seem to be any other guests. Breakfasts are not provided, so I went into town both days I was there.

friendly staff, lovely old pub building, great location. Ground floor room.
we were rather shocked to have a random man unlock our room door and enter our room in the middle of the night. Don't know how he had a key that could unlock our door. He was confused and after a minute or two of us trying to convince him that it wasn't his room, he left and relocked the door as he went. Could have been so much worse, luckily he was not looking to cause trouble. looking through the reviews, this is not an isolated occurance with room 2. I also noted the toilet wasn't very clean when we arrived and the coffee cups smelled bad. shame as otherwise excellent value for money.
