The Lion Hotel Shrewsbury

8/10 Good
"We stayed for one night. It was a little warm in the room, but we discovered a fan in the cupboard. Generally a comfortable stay in a good location to get to a show at Theatre Severn. Plenty of restaurants nearby too. Parking was an essential and at £5 per night was reasonable. We hear the hotel is changing hands soon. I hope the standards are kept high."

"Great budget hotel if that's what you're looking for. Cant complain at all. Especially as it is structurally 250-300 years old. Great food, friendly staff, warm room, comfy bed, clean halls & quiet. Allowed me to use the leisure hours before check-in. Good leisure facilities; towels on arrival, pool and jacuzzi are lovely, sauna & steam room are great. Gym is okay. some machines are out of use/faulty, but you can still get a workout in. Petty improvements: Mens shower control knobs are borderline broken and need replacing. Pool table was faulty A few gym machines are faulty For the price, would definitely stay again."
