Good central position parking nearby in public carpark but a bit difficult to drop of large amounts of luggage outside the property. Towel left behind the door from previous guests. Shower above the bath but no non-slip bathmat this would have been helpful. Food in the restaurant excellent.

The room was nice, but the heating didn’t work. The walls were also very thin so the toilet and shower were quite loud from the room next door. Wifi was sporadic and non existent at times.

Overnight stay
My hubby and I had a fabulous overnight stay at the White Hart . The location is perfect . It is within a few minutes walk of the Ironbridge , shops and cafe’s. There is no on site parking , but there is a long stay car park approx 5mins walk away that charges £4 for an overnight stay . As for the White Hart….the staff are friendly and very helpful . The rooms are delightful. Well ours certainly was . It was spacious and spotlessly clean with a comfortable bed , and a large fan to keep the room cool if necessary . Our evening meal was standard pub fayre, but was reasonably priced and delicious . The breakfast was also of a high standard. There is so much to do and see in the area that we will be returning for a longer stay in the near future .We will have no hesitation in staying at the White Hart again , and have already recommended it to friends

Enjoyable Stay
Stayed for 3 nights. Our room was very large, clean and comfortable. All the staff we encountered were friendly and very helpful. Good location close to the iron bridge (in Ironbridge), overlooking the river Severn. Very good breakfast each morning. Although there is no on-site car-parking, a long stay car park (Dark Lane) just the other side of the Ironbridge is within easy walking distance for £4/day - overnight 5pm to 10am is free. (The actual Ironbridge is only open for pedestrians so the drive to the car-park is quite a bit longer than the walk but it's no bother). We ate in the on-site restaurant on 2 of the nights. The food, service and value for money were excellent.

First time stay.
We could not fault the service, friendliness, food or cleanliness of the Bar and Bistro section of the White Hart. However the room we stayed in smelled musty, the bathroom had an awful smell, when we asked about it, we were told it could be a drainage issue, while we can appreciate the age of the building, the room needs an update, one of the roof windows wouldn’t open, luckily one did, the bathroom was clean, but very tatty and dated. Also it was noisy, being at the back of the building possibly above the beer pumps or fridges. The noise only stopped for a short while in the night then started again early morning making it difficult to get a good nights sleep. On a positive note, the bed linen and towels were perfectly clean. The staff were very accommodating, we would definitely stay here again but in a different room.

Ok but...
When we arrived at the pub there was quite a crowd outside but inside it was quiet so when we arrived at our room it seemed peaceful. When we returned in the evening the pub was full and due to that the toilets were in full use. Every time someone used the hand dryers it sounds like they were in our bedroom. The room was well laid out but the finer details, that were missed, reduced the comfort of stay, for instance the bathroom door which is next to the bed doesn't fully close. The velux blind was broken so as soon as the sun came up it woke us up and all the TV channels said there wasn't any signal bar a news channel. Over the staff were lovely, especially the lady who helped us at breakfast when we needed to leave before the allotted breakfast time, but the rooms need a bit more attention to detail and a bit more soundproofing.

Owners need to take notice of customer feedback
The White Hart is generally OK and the bedroom was comfortable, but it's disappointing that there was no hot water on the morning of our stay, so we couldn't shower, the heating didn't work in the bathroom and that the staff were too young and inexperienced to manage the problem when we told them at check out. We messaged the hotel twice to complain and received no response on either occasion. We stayed in room 2. Also worth noting that an iron burn on the bedroom carpet and a huge stain on the lino on the bathroom floor really need to be dealt with. It completely undermines the 'superior' description of the room.

Perfect night away
Absolutely brilliant night away with my husband. The room was just perfect and was very comfortable. The hotel is in a beautiful location and although there is no on site parking its just a short walk over the iron bridge to a long stay carpark and it cost us £2.40. The parking is free over night. Its an old building but the room felt fresh and modern and the staff were all very friendly a d welcoming.

Lovely place
Very welcoming and informative. Lovely comfortable room and great location. The breakfast was brilliant the best we’ve had for a very long time. We always rate it on the quality of the sausage and these were lovely. Only stayed for one night as on our way to a wedding in Telford but looking to come back and explore more

Good stay. Staff extremely helpful. We were leaving early in the morning so they put breakfast on for us early. Only down side is having to park 10 minutes walk away, but good for a stroll.

Quite a pleasant one night stay at the White Hart. Short Stay Parking a 5 min walk away. We ate at the Smokery opposite the car park but maybe now regret not having dinner in the White Hart which we had neglected to book. We will certainly give it a try next time.

Happy day in Ironbridge
The staff were very helpful from the start. Booking in was easy and the bar was very comfortable. The continental breakfast was very good. The only downside was there is no parking, but the long stay carpark over the iron bridge was very close.

My stay at the white hart hotel was perfect in every way. The hotel location is fantastic, right across the street from the river Severn, and a hundred yards or so from the Ironbridge! The service was extremely COVID friendly, and very efficient, great outside seating area, for dining and drinks.The room was amazing, with everything you would need, and breakfast was spot on! Thoroughly recommend.

The food was excellent, service very friendly, but our room was not so good. Bathroom had an unpleasant smell and the shower was unusable because the temperature control was faulty...scorching water. We reported this and were offered another room but in this room, the bathroom light did not work. We were given some compensation via bill reduction but although the food was great, I wouldn't stay here again.
