I should know better than to book a room at an inn because generally, the rooms are over a pub this one had music at night until 1115. But the worst thing was that the private bathroom was across a corridor. Not so good for nighttime visit. The bathroom also was tiny. Anyone smaller than me would not have been able to use the toilet or the shower the Wi-Fi was nonexistent overall a very unsatisfactory experience

The breakfast was freshly made and was presented nicely. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was nice and clean. The only small thing that let it down was that the bathroom door could do with a clean. I would return again, no problem. The staff were very helpful and friendly and the location was excellent.

Basic accommodation but certainly clean, comfortable and an excellent night’s sleep. Staff are extremely friendly and very helpful. Breakfasts are really good. And it’s brilliant just to be able to tumble into bed above the bar where you’ve been enjoying live music. Great value for money (and we are repeat visitors !)

Perfect Location , Good Value but.....

This is a beautiful building, fabulous location in historic Shrewsbury. The rooms are fine, nothing special but not awful - bit tired, carpets were stained and windows filthy but comfy bed, The private bathroom was tiny and had mold on the shower frame and tiles. It's only a 5 minute walk from the NCP car park which is a good value £7.95 for 24 hours if you pay by the app so don't let the lack of parking facilities put you off. We stayed on a Saturday night and the live music from the Bull and neighbouring places was LOUD! Went on till gone midnight but then it was fairly quiet and nice to have no traffic noise. Breakfast looked great but we had the full English and you could taste the ingredients were cheap, sausages went straight to the dog! So, mixed bag but good value overall.

Nowhere to park. Best suggestion from the pub was NCP car park, over 10 minutes walk away. I did not stay. I will try to get a refund.

A nice and convenient place to stay.

Its a nice traditional Inn in a lovely old building. Bar is nice with a decent outside area. Staff are friendly and helpful. Only had breakfast once but was very nice. There is music from the bar some evenings but went off at a reasonable time. Cleanliness of bathroom could of been better.

Bedroom was fine, bathroom was tiny & poorly lit. The noise level was unbearable. Advised at check in a band would playing till 11pm but the music went on till about 1am & nearby properties later than that. Felt like I was in party central. Based on my experience I don’t recommend this property.
