"We were made to feel really welcome and at home - clearly a business that really values its clientele. We will definitely return when we are in the area."

"When you arrive at the hotel car park the outside looks lovely and is a real sun trap for outdoor drinks. It’s a bit tricky finding reception from the car park so better signage would be helpful. Some areas of the hotel feel a little worn like the red carpet on the reception stairs entrance and the bathroom area of the room I stayed in, and the jacuzzi was out of order on my stay too which was a little disappointing. Most of the staff were really friendly and helpful (bar staff, cleaners and spa in particular) but there were a couple of occasions when I wasn’t acknowledged by small groups of staff. The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable. The bar area had a good atmosphere and the food was really tasty! Thai red curry special was a highlight of my stay. Breakfast was also really good with plenty of options. The gym is really well equipped and wasn’t too busy. Overall it’s a good hotel but needs a bit of tidying up."

"Food and clean"

"We arrived late evening but received a very friendly welcome from the guys on reception. Room clean & comfortable with excellent shower, all nicely decorated."

"The Lion Hotel is ideally situated to explore Shrewsbury on foot and you can leave your car on the property, pay at the desk rather than the machine for £5 per day. It is a property that is both historic and with character, having said that the communal areas looked very tired. The room was spacious with a high ceiling, brown furniture and bare floorboards which squeaked with every step so be aware if you are prone to waltzing in your sleep."

"The room was clean and comfortable. Some areas looked tired. Paint work chipped in the room. But overall the room was clean and pleasant. We stayed over night in preparation for a wedding the next day. The staff were lovely and friendly. We stayed in the lounge area after a nice meal. Nice atmosphere. Breakfast was good and plenty of selection for breakfast. Really enjoyed the stay. There was plenty of Parking spaces. "

"The room was okay. Though to be fair clean. The beds were a tad uncomfortable. The bed had a ridge at the side so probably needs a new matress. The pillars were cheap. One was too low and two were too high. The breakfast was of a reasonable standard. Though I doubt whether the sausages were Welsh sausages. Probably cheap sausages from wholesale suppliers. I used to make sausages and these definately werent home made. The buffet was very average. The bread was cheap commercial bread. The yogurts were full of ultra processed rubbish. Someone needs to take control of this aspect of the experience. On the positive side the location and the Staff were very pleasant. Not sure whether I would be back in a hurry. "

"Central location of hotel is excellent. The room I was initially allocated had damaged drawers but the staff willingly offered an alternative room which was fine. The staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful - thank you for a lovely stay x"

"Good staff and location but the hotel is badly maintained, out of date, and in need of a serious renovation. Shower and bed were poor. Rooms very dated. I do not plan to stay again. Note: This is a pub so can be a little loud, but to be expected."
