"Check in girls welcoming & friendly. Later bar staff good & then at breakfast all the lads were fab, kept everything topped up😊"

"The hotel is VERY tired. It needs a lot of money spending on it, but if it did, it would be fantastic. Staff were really good but not enough of them. The guy on reception seemed to be doing everything. The swimming pool was really good and the gym looked good as well, but I didn’t have time to use it. We had a bar meal which was perfectly fine and a reasonable price as well. I hope the owners spend the money to bring the buildings up to scratch, ( a new coat of whitewash on the outside and complete redecoration on the inside would help immensely). We only stayed one night and for what we paid, it was perfectly fine, but I wouldn’t want to spend more than one night there though…"

"Nicely situated in the town, friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Would stay here again! "

"Clean and comfortable room. Lots of character to the property overall. Staff excellent. Good dinner. Good breakfast. Only flaw was terrible coffee at breakfast. "

"Gorgeous old hotel in a fabulous location, central Shrewsbury. Parking only £5 per day. Comfy bed, great shower. Rooms a little tired but would definitely stay at The Lion again!"

"Staff ant the reception are very friendly. "

"Dated room with no AC, but has everything needed."

"Told on arrival no food as they said working on kitchen, dining room not open or any room service. Hotel isn't that close to other places either. Not even snacks or sandwiches or hot drinks other than those in the room. They could have provided a temporary provision. Instead told get a takeaway delivered and even delivery drivers took a long time given location. This hotel should not be trading as a 3 star hotel without any catering or any food. Room was cold also as heating on a timer so had to get hotel to provide a fan heater. Only one pillow on beds too low. All together a poor stay, shame as hotel so. Much potential and character. "

"Large room. Good shower. Food nice. Plenty of parking."
