LOCATION ... A three-minute walk takes you right into the heart of historic Shrewsbury with its cobbled streets and Tudor buildings, and to the main shopping streets. CAR PARKING ... There are 12 private car-parking spaces, but it's double-parking. This means that, if you're blocking-in a fellow guest's car, you have to leave your car keys at Reception if you... More

This does have more of a boarding house feel due to its size and the air fresheners! However it was fine for an overnight stay - the owners are very welcoming, the room was compact but had everything you expect, tiny bathroom but all very clean. Good breakfast in nice dining room. Only 10 parking spaces but large car park... More

As the title say's the location, for my family vacation, was perfectly set in the beautiful town of Shrewsbury. This was made even better by the friendly and family atmosphere when we arrived, nothing was to much trouble. There was free parking to the front of the hotel and free wifi throughout the whole hotel which was very useful when... More

Is in a great town centre location with free parking and wifi, rooms are spotlessly clean as is the rest of the hotel, superb freshly cooked breakfast. Suited all my needs for my business trip. More

My wife and I stayed for one night. Hotel is close to town centre and has limited free car parking. We had a room facing the front street but did not suffer from external noise, as mentioned in previous reviews. Only met one member of staff (on reception) who was pleasant and helpful. Room was tiny and in need of... More

clean but small room, comfy bed, not particularly cheap. Quite nice breakfast but was served orange juice drink not orange juice. The reason for he poor rating is that I was kept awake till nearly 2am by the noise from the pub next door, loud music, lots of raucous noise, breakfast was 8-9 so could not really catch up on...

Stayed here whilst going to the Elton John Concert in Greenhouse Meadow on 12 June 2011. Its an old style hotel, right by the river, close to the town centre. Parking is very tight if the place is full. Was quiet when we stayed, warm friendly welcome from the owner. He gave us advice on buses to the gig, but... More

The Abbots Mead Hotel is a little over a mile's walk (with steep inclines) from the rail station and about a half mile from the historic center. The pluses are that the staff is very friendly, the location is close to Shrewsbury Abbey, the rate included a good English breakfast in a pleasant room, there are restaurants, pubs and bus... More
