    "the hotel accomodation was clean and comfortable. good choice of menu for a small hotel and all meals were very good. the hotel is quiet but central to this small village.overall good value for money" (108656369)

    room very clean and spacious, double glazing good as room overlooked busy road junction, food excellent, friendly helpful staff

    not much information given at checkin, drinks from the bar seemed a bit expensive compared to others in village

    "A good place to stay to explore the area and would stay again if could get a special deal and a quieter room." (107924682)

    Without exception every member of staff was polite, friendly and helpful.

    We felt the room was a little overpriced as decor was a bit tired, alsowe were near the road and had to keep the window shut to keep out traffic noise, as the weather was warm this resulted in the room being stuffy.

    "Excellent." (107383626)

    Staff always freindly, sleeping accomodation very comfortable and breakfast excellent. Have stayed at this hotel a number of times now with very little, if anything, to complain about.

    "Pleasant room & quiet good breakfast but spoilt bt the experience of the dinner & wine service." (107743476)

    Good Inn with rooms & excellent bar menu.

    Overall an overpriced menu, but good food. The young waitress had not been told how to serve wine and did not show me the bottle, took the cork out in the kitchen & did not attempt to let me taste it.

    "Our fourth stay at this hotel and I am sure not the last. The overall friendliness of the staff was exemplary. Always a pleasure to stay here." (97087628)

    A pleasant and comfortable restaurant. Courteous and friendly staff. Clean.

    Cannot think of any.

    The room booked and acknowledged was already booked and we had to stay in a small room which I would not have accepted as a self catering holiday let. This was to be a special occasion for my wife and self on out 50th - golden - wedding anniversary. We were most disappointed and let down.

    "directions from the Net were good. Easy to find. Plenty of free parking. good choice of light snacks or full menu in the evening. The eggs at breakfast were particularly good!!" (97395250)

    delightful period pub in a good location for visiting the area. Convenient for Ironbridge Gorge. Friendly staff. Good atmosphere

    Slight traffic noise problem ( room overlooking a busy junction)alleviated by secondary double glazing.

    "This hotel is ideal for an overnight/weekend stay. Despite being on a busy road, the rooms are quiet and clean. Meals are excellent but the menu may be restrictive if on a long stay." (99211407)

  • 10/10 Anthony ( Volwassen paar)

    "This was our third stay at this hotel so obviously we always enjoy our visits here. The staff are always very cheerful and friendly and the meals are always excellent in the comfortable and clean restaurant." (99106770)

    The room was spacious and comfortable with tea and coffee making facilities.

  • 9/10 Peter ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Lincoln , United Kingdom;GB  op  28 mei 2007

    "I felt that the information received was good. I did not feel that I needed to know anything before booking. I was looking for an hotel in the area so as to visit friends; rooms were available. The food in the hotel was good, the evening restaurant meals were excellent, the breakfast good and filling and served with alacrity." (99905106)

    Easily accessible. It did not pretend to be anything other than a pub with accommodation. The locals were friendly and the staff liked what they were doing.

    "Cannot fault anything, everything was as expected, clean, tidy, old worldly, nice food, only the weather was depressing." (99243464)

    The accommodation was clean, evening meal excellent and the staff friendly. The bar served real beers in a nice atmosphere.

    The electric shower in the en suite, can`t get on with them, either too hot or too cold or both, never found a good on yet, but managed.

    van Annan , United Kingdom;GB  op  16 december 2006

    good breakfast

    Room was small & dated there was also a damp smell. Being at the front of the building there was a lot of traffic noise

    "This was our second visit to this hotel and on our first visit we had a larger room. As mentioned above, we were a little disapointed with the size of the room but this was just a nminor setback." (99619113)

    Very clean and comfortable.

    The room was a little cramped.

    "I would like to have been warned that the room was likely to be noisy as it is on a busy road with a quarry just down the road. I would have even preferred a smoking room if that meant that it would have been quieter. Good menu in the restaurant." (99287220)

    Very good quality sheets.

    The noisiest room I have ever stayed in.

  • 9/10 Christina ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Market harborough , United Kingdom;GB  op  22 november 2006

    "The accommodation was exactly as we hoped it would be. It is essentially a pub with some bedrooms which is what we wanted. We felt very welcome. The food was excellent and we certainly hope to stay there again." (99159159)

    Our room was warm, comfortable and cleaned daily with fresh towels provided. We visited in November. The real log fire in the bar was particularly welcome. The breakfasts were wonderful. We ate from the a la carte dining room menu on the Saturday night and the meal was excellent.

    I can't think of any negative points.

    van Thornborough , United Kingdom;GB  op  30 juli 2006

    "The hotel is in a good location in Much Wenlock, shops and a 24-hour garage mini-mart very close. It is a beautiful country area with much history, lots to see. Perfect for walkers or car visitors. There is a midnight lock up, but there are rooms outside the main building of the hotel where 24 access is not a problem. The hotel people were friendly and accomodating, it was very busy when we were there. There is plenty of car parking. Breakfast was excellent and plentiful. The evening meals looked good, home cooking type menu, but no sandwiches or snacks. Beer was excellent, with a guest ale and on-tap cider, but no draught perry." (3304692134)

    Really friendly and accommodating, all the staff worked as a team together - more like a family.

    THe midnight curfew was too difficult for us but when we came in late we still got a smile.

    The old building was very nice and it hadn't modernised too much which is a good thing the area was lovely too.

    The food was excellent. The restaurant was busy which is always a good sign.

    Slight traffic noise because my room was at the front of the hotel overlooking the main road junction

    "The place could do with a bit of a revamp, it an amazing historic building which must have been renovated in the early 90's, it's very dated.." (3304091965)

    It was rustic and was in a beautiful village

    The staff were not very accomodating and rather unfriendly apart from a couple of people, and we were not informed on the online booking that there was a curfew at 11.30 due to the fact that no key's for rooms were given out, which was very inconvenient, the bathroom was tiny.

    "I read the reviews of previous guests and was influenced by them before booking on line. This is a good 2 star hotel with good food I would add my recommendation." (3304704712)

    The hotel looked as if it had recent refurbishment. The room was quite new and clean with the usual facilities. Excellent breakfast provided.

    Just one smallpoint, no loo-roll holder.

    tiny shower... virtually unusable! On reflection,

    "The cooked breakfasts were good, staff welcoming and helpful. The homemade bar meals were good particularly the steak and kidney pie" (3304117802)

    The accommodation was clean, tidy and spacious. Food good and reasonably priced

    van Chester , United Kingdom;GB  op  2 november 2005

    "Would recommend this hotel. Lovely rooms, friendly staff, excellent food." (2908946)

    Booked two standard rooms but was upgraded to Mews suites. They were well decorated and appointed. The bed very comfortable. In general far superior to its 2 star grading.

    very minor point was the 9am breakfast on Sunday an extra half hour in bed would have been nice.

  • 7/10 Rebecca ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Leeds , United Kingdom;GB  op  28 oktober 2005

    "Food was good and exceptionally large portions meant no dessert for us. Lovely setting near the centre of the town. Nothing said about not having ensuite bathroom." (2809737)

    Comfortable and clean

    Didn't realise that the bathroom was not ensuite - could have been a bit embarrassing but wasn't clear from the booking.

  • 9/10 Vivienne ( Solo zakenreiziger) 

    van Horsham , United Kingdom;GB  op  17 september 2005

    "My first impresion of the room was that it was fresh and clean looking, set out well and all the facilities were there. As I do stay in hotels a lot, getting into the bed was the best experience. The pillows were comfortable and the sheets were excellent, soft and smooth. Believe me this is what makes the hotel a winner for somebody in my position. I have spent many a night trying to plump some comfort into a pillow and avoid the scratchy bed linen. I think the only thing I would have liked to have known was more detail on the direction and car park. Maybe being female and travelling alone these are areas of importance, and although there are some details could have had map clearly stating distances from Telford etc. Late at night in a strange area can be daunting when you are not sure if you are on the right ropad, especially in this case as the road is country and dark." (2748599)

    Decor of the room

    Cannot really say as only got there in time to go to bed and left early next morning

    Good no nonsense accommodation with a friendly atmosphere.

    The chilling of white wine.

  • 7/10 Peter ( Volwassen paar) 

    van Rickmansworth , United Kingdom;GB  op  19 augustus 2005

    "Good accommodation, friendly and helpful staff with a good dinner/bar snack menu. Lovely garden and hotel well positioned in interesting/pretty village. Good location for easy trips to surrounding areas." (2587242)

    The size of the accommodation was excellent, with plenty of space to relax as well. Garden was beautiful! Parking and access to the Coach House suite was very good.

    Choice at breakfast e.g. continental breakfast - for those not wanting cooked/fried food! Need to erradicate the flies from dining room and bar eating areas.

    "Lovely characterful hotel, a very pleasant change from chain hotels. Ideal situation for a very picturesque village. I particularly liked that the restaurant was happy to serve child portions of main meals." (2562113)

    Genuine character of building, with very good level of facilities and comfort

    van Weston super mare , United Kingdom;GB  op  20 juni 2005

    "Much Wenlock is lovely and the hotel is convenient for a nice walk around the town. The room I had was adequate but could do with an update. The restaurant provided a very good breakfast and both dinner and wine offered a good selection and good value - overheard several people raving about the food. The evening waiters were really charming. I had a good discount on the room and felt overall it was good value for money. However, the stated room rate of £120 is far too high for a room with mock wood furniture and a strip light above the bed." (2397634)

    The staff were charming and pleasant and the restaurant was very good value for money

    There were a few touches in my room which need to be removed as they are a bit tacky - the strip light above the bed and the plastic shower attachment in the bathroom for example.

    "The hotel was well situated to explore the surrounding areas where there is much to see and do. The food and drink in the hotel were excellent and the staff were very friendly. It was a pity we were only staying for one night." (2290297)

    The suite was very spacious.

    For the time of year, May, the weather was cold and it would have been good to have the heating on a little.
