"Good pool"

"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."

"Clean refurbed room. Good gym "

"Wonderful reception friendly, clean room and dinner excellent.A beautiful quiet environment.Thank you"

"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."

"Excellent breakfast! Plenty of choice."

"The hotel is absolutely beautiful. The room could not have been cleaner and the staff were so lovely. Overall, we were really disappointed with the food. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and didn’t eat our food. We were also disappointed with breakfast."

"Shower mixer faulty. Couldn’t reach tepid temperature…. No refund offered after complaint."

"Gluten free evening meal was not as described but breakfast was good with GF bread and separate toaster "
