Jo

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were very friendly and helpful. The fittings and decor are a bit dated but the bed was really comfortable and the linen and towels were lovely. I would suggest getting a room nearer the back of the hotel, we were on the front and it was rather noisy from the pub next door. Although the parking may seem a little complicated it's good value for being in the town and we extended the next morning at a better rate than if we had moved it. Really good location to explore the town and for walking the local area

Very friendly, but professional members of staff. Nothing is too much trouble. Beautifully decorated for Christmas. We stayed in the Mansion House and we loved the history of the older part of the hotel. Wonky walls and sloping floors added to the unique experience. Would love to stay again. A huge thank you to everyone who made us feel so welcome. Merry Christmas 🎄

We stayed at the Prince Rupert for six nights. The rooms are nice if a bit tired. However, the newly refurbished bathrooms have a tap and sink arrangement that doesn't work at all making even simple hand washing annoyingly awkward. The water pressure in the shower is poor too. The breakfast is good, and the staff could not be nicer or more helpful and the hotel's location is beautiful and handy for everything in Shrewsbury. We would return, but sort the sink and taps, please.

Fabulous restaurant Room was ok. Some areas looking like needing some attention but expect they are working their way through Communal areas very tidy and fresh. Great location. I would advise parking on outside edge of town as. Nightmare one way system Only 20 mins to walk across the town.
