“Lovely stay”

Reviewed 2 November 2012

Good points: very welcoming, beautiful location, lovely building, comfy beds, ensuite shower in our private room, good breakfasts, lovely atmosphere, very chilled, very good at catering for vegetarians with minimum fuss. Bad points: heating switched off at 9pm, noise. Specifically the flooring which means every time a herd of elephants (or children as their more commonly known) run past your... More

“Brilliant Stay with Smilies”

We stayed at this Youth Hostel for Smilies Activity Weekend at the beginning of September. A nice clean place, good location and friendly staff. The food was very good for a Youth Hostel. Games room and lounge were welcomed

Thank you for the positive feedback, it was great to hear your group had had such a good stay. More

“Stay here.”

Reviewed 4 August 2012

It's great. Yes ventilation is an issue in humid conditions, but with these old historical and interesting buildings there are restrictions on what changes can be made. Yes menu is a little restricted but to be fair if they are catering for an unknown number of people at short notice there's only so much stock can be carried and waste... More

Thank you for the great feedback, we look forward to seeing you again soon More

“First stay with yha for years - much improved”

Reviewed 14 November 2011

I hadn't stayed in a youth hostel for about 20 years as I had found that they had become noisy, dirty and badly run by wardens who just didn't care (maybe just the ones that I had stayed in), so it was mixed feelings that I booked myself and my 11 year old son into this one whilst visiting Ironbridge...

“Nice, modern accomodation with TV, internet etc but food awful”

Reviewed 16 October 2011

The worst food I have ever paid for! 3 course meal that was only just edible. Breakfast OK but cheap quality and no cheaper than in a pub. However, friendly staff, clean rooms, good showers and common room facilities

Thank you for you positive feedback about the staff and the facilities. I also appreciate your frankness on the quality of the meals during your stay and am investigating why it fell short of our usual standards on this occasion. More

“Great location but too noisy”

Reviewed 16 August 2011

We stayed at YHA Coalport whilst visiting the Ironbridge Gorge area. The YHA was well situated on the cycle network and footpaths around Coalbrookdale and in addition to the YHA cafe & restaurant there were several pubs in walking distance for food and refreshment. Whilst the staff was helpful and the hostel clean there were several problems with this hostel:... More

Thank you for your feedback about your stay. The car parking currently costs £1.50 between 10am and 5pm and the ticket is valid in any of the Ironbridge Museum car parks on that day. Unfortunately the original iron window frames open from a central horizontal axis and without restrictors could easily swing open and cause injury. I apologise for the... More

“Friendly staff and lovely location.”

Reviewed 22 May 2011 via mobile

We will definitely stay here again. We arrived very hungry after the hostel cafe and pub had finished serving food, but were saved by the hostel staff who kindly made us some soup!
