The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury

The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury

8/10 Good
"As other reviewers have said, older property in need of tlc but meanwhile was in a super town centre location which was surprisingly unnoisy on a Saturday night/Sunday morning, felt homely, kept clean, staff super helpful with useful no charge bag storage on departure day. Didn't miss restaurant in hotel as surrounded by a, huge choice of eateries. I would recommend to like-minded, friends. But you would be disappointed if you were after luxury!"

"Lovely clean room, it had a welcome fridge with a bottle of orange juice two bottles of water and a carton of milk. Breakfast consisted of cereal or oats, an apple a pastry and some nuts. Parking was free. Even though I overlooked the main road the traffic didn't keep me awake. Unfortunately there was a wake their so I walked 10 mins up the road to eat, so I can't tell you about the food. But I would stay again."
