I had high expectations. The brochure and website make this look like a boutique hotel, but don't be fooled. Overall this hotel is pretty average, but a couple of things tipped it to 'poor' for me. As previous reviews have said, it's a bit dated and the room I was in was on the small side despite having paid for... more

I can safely say that my stay at the Old Rectory was the worst experience I have had in any hotel in the UK. Our family and friends booked 7 rooms at the Old Rectory for 2 nights in order to attend my brother's wedding. The groom, ushers, best man, mother of the groom etc were all booked in. We... more

Stayed here for a Thursday night. Booked via Laterooms but they do good offers direct too. Spacious room with comfy bed and great views out over the extensive and beautifully maintained gardens. The highlight was dinner - 3 courses for about £20 - a great choice on the menu and beautifully served by Claire who seems to do everything. Breakfast... more

We had eaten Sunday lunch at the hotel on a previous occasion so when it came to booking somewhere whilst visiting relatives, this was our first choice. We booked via Late rooms and got a good deal. I also phoned the hotel direct to negotiate a longer visit for my parents and the staff were most helpful. The hotel itself... more

Lovely old house, rooms need a bit more dusting but decor okay. Plenty of work in progress throughout and will cost a lot to get it back to what it once was. more

Good and clean, and real affordable. Hearty portions at breakfast as well. Convenient edge of town location near traditional local pub. Nice. more

I have stayed at the Old Rectory Hotel in Wem several times over the last 2 years. It is a pleasant building with extensions around a courtyard. A tranquil spot on the outskirts of Wem with a splendid lounge and plenty of original features. A family run hotel that opened in 2005 it has now expanded to 15 rooms. Most... more
