The Lion is in the centre of Shrewsbury and couldn`t be more centrally located. Close to everything. The staff were superb; very kind and helpful. Clean and quiet.....very quiet.
Lumpy mattress which couldn`t be replaced, weak WiFi signal, no kitchen or restaurant, lack of alcohol in the bar.

Go to budget in town centre. Beautiful historic location and building .
Can’t see that post Covid investment that was mentioned as yet.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
The hotel has a fantastic history and more investment in the property's furnishings and food and beverage would pay dividends.
The atmosphere of the hotel and staff feels like it has a limited lifespan and lacks the basic requirement's of a modern day hotel in providing a vibrant restaurant and bar facilities.
