Independent in Shrewsbury from NZ$139

"Friendly and welcoming staff. Clean, spacious and comfortable room. Great breakfast buffet. Some issues connecting to the wifi. "

"Fabulous period property with so much charm. There were only a handful of people staying, including me, which made for a very peaceful stay. I slept well, and the rooms had great amenities. I would say the rooms felt dated, but this adds to the charm of the property. The evening food was fantastic, and there was a good selection of drinks available. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Check-in and out was a breeze, and gave me a great history of the property, an overview of the surroundings, and all the information I needed without having to ask. Would certainly recommend this place. "

"Nice comfortable room, helpful staff, great restaurant.Short walk into town."

"We had a meal on the first night which was very good. Guinness pie with mash and an Angus burger. Food was served hot and was very tasty 😋 The room was clean and tidy with a big bathroom. One small issue was a loose toilet seat but it was sorted as soon as I reported it to reception. Overall a good 2 night stay. A cooked breakfast would have made the stay even better but there was a continental breakfast, fresh fruit, cereal, toast, yoghurt etc."

"Very helpful and friendly staff. Very clean and a nice breakfast. Location was very handy for town centre and not too far to walk to the station "

"Just returned from a lovely stay here. Highly recommended. Charming room, friendly staff and ideally situated. Will definitely book again."

"Great stay for 1 night with work"

"This fantastic hotel is a real gem, situated in the heart of lovely Shrewsbury and would make a great base for explorers enjoying all the local amenities. The Lion Hotel reflects the environment; quirky, an architectural gem filled with ancient and beautiful furniture pieces, an historic idiosyncrasy still resplendent in faded charm. Not for the fussy or fastidious traveller. This would be for Hogwarts lovers and those seeking individuality. Fabulous comfortable half-poster bed and luxurious bathroom with masses of piping hot water. No breakfast available, but super delicatessens within a minute's walk gets you up and out too! Very reasonable parking fee and dogs welcome. We will come back as often as we are able."

"A wonderful hotel right in the heart of Shrewsbury. The recommended car park is less than a minute's walk. The hotel is really tastefully themed with lovely homely touches. The breakfast and honesty bar were a highlight!"
