“Great Hotel with a Fantastic Restauarnt - Definately would Recommend”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2010

We attended a family get together and stopped here for one night.
The hotel was very clean and tidy. Staff were very helpful and nothing seemed to be too much trouble, which was nice as i have stayed at some places that are not helpful at all. The rooms were very nice too.

We had a meal in the evening, and I must say it was absolutely perfect! Apparently it was a fairly new menu, and had a very wide choice, but the restaurants main menu was a steak menu...... which my husband was over the moon about !! He said the steak was beautiful and cooked just like he liked it (which he never says about my cooking !)

Would definately stop there again and would not hesitate in recommending it to anyone.
I hope this helps somebody :)

“Excellent value for money a really lovely hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 April 2010

We stayed for 4 nights at the hotel; the nice thing about it is the modern contemporary hotel complimented by the 16th century inn adjoining it through the link - the sfaff were very pleasant and friendly, the rooms were clean and generally very good, the food was excellent with a good choice on the menu "I can recomend the steaks" the beer was also very good with a good selection of real ales.

There is free car parking at the rear and the hotel is ideally positioned in the town centre Oswestry is a great place to visit.

Look forward to our next visit

“Ok for an overnight, food could be better”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 September 2008

Booked a room here to as attending a 'do 'locally and wanted to be withing walking distance. Website makes rooms look quite stylish as they have only recently been done up. However cream paint and carpets don't cover up the lack of wall preparation underneath in this Victorian building and marks are already showing. Badly on wall in restaurant/breakfast room.

I was expecting some street noise so took earplugs but was surprised they had not bothered with double glazing. This meant there was condensation on the windows in the morning and I imagine there would be ice in cold weather. The double bed was tiny- 4ft 6 I think and no nice cosy duvets- horrid sheet and blanket.

Bathroom was nice and clean with big bath and shower over but not much space to put washbag etc.

Staff friendly enough but very laid back and not very well organised.

Major disappointment was the breakfast- we were in an area famous for great local produce yet we got watery bacon for breakfast, dishwater coffee and extremely thin sliced white loaf which looked like a supermarket loss leader. Very cheap marmalade too. I would rather have paid a bit more for quality food.
Would not return unless nowhere else available. ( no reply to my email from Sebastians)
We paid £75 double B and B rate.
