Public areas need a refit

2.0 / 10.0

Considerably past its best was the immediate impression on arrival. Room was adequate and clean. Can’t though believe they didn’t know the somewhat antique TV in the room didn’t work and had clearly not been plugged in and used recently. Also that their USP - secure parking in the middle of Shrewsbury - comes at an additional cost of £10. Stated elsewhere, but not alongside the sales blurb in a fully open way.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Lovely hotel with some lovely features - bar for example. Central location - middle of the town, way walking distance to train station. Our room was spacious and clean with tea and coffee. Bed comfy. The whole place just looked so tired. Black mould on our bathroom ceiling, aged taps and bathmat . Room was a little chilly probably due to metal frame window. The price, service, location were great, hotel itself although was very clean, was just very very tired.

The location is great and it’s fine for a one night stay after a night out but the whole place is tatty and I wouldn’t recommend it for any other purpose.

Warm, lovely sized rooms, great service, nice biccies, parking, the joy of sleeping in a breathing historic building. Full of history, charm and character in the charming Grade 1 listed building! 3rd time I’ve been and will happily becoming again when In Shrewsbury. Close to town, pubs, the river, shops and the city centre. Even Charles Dickens stayed her many MANY years ago!

4.0 / 10.0

Superb location in the town centre, parking and warm welcome from staff. I think the overly warm room and inability to turn the temperature down is a small issue but could be an asset when the weather outside gets really cold. 3rd time returning so they are obviously doing a lot of things right.

2.0 / 10.0

The Lion Hotel mirrors the Tudor vibe found throughout Shrewsbury. Since then it’s had a refresh in the ‘70s (1970’s), and the management has spared no expense to maintain the Fawlty Towers character of the period, complete with shower curtains and a shower at chest height. An ideal place for the older generation wishing to take a trip down memory lane or show grandchildren a glimpse of the previous century. Whatever the case, you won’t be cold as the heating is very effective. And no need need for a kettle either, the hot water is hot, hot, hot….

Receptionist at check in was disinterested. Wasn't told the heating in room wasn't working. I only found out when i went to complain the room was cold. I got given an temporary heater. There was excessive external noise from the street outside as windows did not seal closed. no secondary glazing. So with noise and cold drafts coming in the window. Even with curtains closed and heater on. Didn’t make any difference. Checked out early and cut trip short.

Staff were fine. Room was tired and smelly. Bed springs sticking out and shower didn’t work. But you get what you pay for, it was cheap.

Very old building and could do with a refurb but was clean and had all we needed. Situated in the town centre which was really convenient. Staff helpful. Parking available out the back which was tight to get around but managed not to hit anything. Reasonable price.

6.0 / 10.0

Room was clean, but in desperate needs of refurb. TV must of been 30 years old and remote likely needed new batteries. Couldn’t get any hot water for shower. Car parking was good. £5 for 1 night stay. Guy on reception was good.

Clean room, cosy warm. Hotel in need of refurbish. Great location and safe parking.

6.0 / 10.0

This hotel has so much latent potential but needs considerable investment. I stayed for 1 night and had to change rooms because of an incessant humming sound in the room coming from the cupboard/wardrobe. When I went down to reception, they said this was a common problem throughout the hotel caused by the old plumbing system. The second room was okay but was very dated with a small TV and very limited coffee in the room. If you're really on a budget then this place may suit but, from experience, a little bit more money gets you a much better hotel in Shrewsbury. On the plus side, the staff were friendly and helpful and the hotel's location was excellent. It just needs a couple of million pounds spending on it to make a gem.

8.0 / 10.0

Room was decent and clean. Bathrooms and corridors are a little outdated but still adequate, to be expected in an older building like this. Building has some interesting history - enjoyed the hearth and sitting room in the main lobby. Location was excellent, inside the walled centre of Shrewsbury town. Walking distance to pubs, shops and restaurants.

My room was spotless, bed was comfortable. Only complaint I have is strange noises coming from the bathroom, think it was from the pipes. No food available in the hotel which made it very quiet and empty.

6.0 / 10.0

Functional / practical accommodation, to explore Shrewsbury. Although we were on the 3rd floor - no lift and quite steep stairs. Would have been nice to have a hotel bar and breakfast available at the hotel. But having said that the surrounding streets offer a vast range of bars and eateries so get out there and explore.

4.0 / 10.0

The reception staff were very helpful and welcoming. The room was spacious and comfortable. I was on the second floor and found it difficult to find the room initially. Would not be easy for anyone with mobility issues. It would also have been nice to have been able to have breakfast at the hotel.

8.0 / 10.0

The Lion Hotel is in the centre of Shrewsbury with local shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs within 5 minutes walk. Railway station is about 10 minutes walk. My room was quiet at the back of the hotel. Only issue was there was no lift working in the hotel and shower was very difficult to control to achieve the right temperature.

4.0 / 10.0

Great place to stay. Get to dump the car in the carpark and leave it there as everything is on the doorstep.

4.0 / 10.0

Unaware that there were no kitchens or therefore breakfast. Poor bar - only bottles. Room OK but hotel tired and public areas shabby. Would not go back.

8.0 / 10.0

The hotel is a very old building and has lots of character, I only stayed one night but i would stay her again. The room was bigger than I expected with an on suite bathroom and tea & coffee making facilities. The hotel has a car park but make sure you arrive early because it fills up, the hotel also charge £5 per night to park but you are right in the centre of Shrewsbury. The hotel has a bar but does not offer breakfast and this disappointed me and is the reason I only gave 4 stars. The mattress in the room was very hard and I found a little uncomfortable the hotel also does not have a lift but bearing in mind the age of the building I understand adding a lift is not possible.
