Excellent location, less than 10 minute walk from station and very central for shops. My room was not overlooking main street, no noise at all from outside, even though Friday night and room was lovely and warm with adjustable radiator. Bed comfy and bathroom modern with lovely shower. Nice tea and coffee tray with hot chocolate and biscuits. Lovely breakfast with delicious pastries, yoghurt, cut and whole fruit, muesli and some mini cereal boxes. Tea selection they even had Darjeeling and the coffee was lovely. Hot breakfast to order. Really tasty. Breakfast was run by Janice who was marvellous. Reception was a bit hit and miss. At check-in the couple in front and the group behind were offered a glass of sherry but I wasn't which felt rude. Also I was told when checking in the absolute earliest I could have breakfast on Sunday was 8am, even though I said I would have to catch a later train to do this. However, the wonderful Janice said I COULD have come earlier for the buffet part of breakfast, especially as she had others doing this that morning! I was checked out at Reception by the same lady who'd checked me in, perfectly pleasant but all she asked me was would I like a receipt and not whether I'd had a nice stay so probably some improvement could be made on customer service. Overall, I would stay again if price was competitive.

Perfect Prince Rupert Hotel

From the time we stepped inside the hotel to the day we left we couldn’t have been more pleased and so happy with our stay. We had an upgrade to the Mansion and wow what an upgrade! It was absolutely marvellous. The Manager ‘Charlie’ was amazing, so knowledgeable about the history of the hotel and area. The staff were amazing the bar and restaurant were great. Can’t wait to go back.

I was in the older part. I had a suite for the price of a double room, which was good, but the room needs a bit of TLC, The water took a long time to run hot, but when it arrived there was plenty. Staff excellent.

I love the area surrounding the Prince Rupert! I have visited Shrewsbury many times but this was my first stay here. I highly recommend the Prince Rupert. You are welcomed warmly by the staff. The sherry was such a treat! It is clean, inviting, and wonderfully historic. I can't wait to visit again!

Stunning hotel,fab location and such amazing staff

What a beautiful hotel, lovely Sherry on arrival (thank you) and such warm and welcoming wonderful staff who were faultless and so kind. Such a comfortable bed and lovely room. Could have been cleaner in places but beds spotless. Lovely bathroom. Breakfast was delish, felt really spoilt with the choice. Only negative is that we didn’t get to sleep until 4am as so much noise from room above and room adjacent. So next time I will bring ear plugs! Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Most comfortable hotel bed I’ve stayed in!
Best Sherry ever!

Staff great, property is looking a little tiered, generally ok for a short break. A bit of a pain for the parking at weekends when the main road is closed until 4 pm (Not the hotel’s fault) I am sure that the hotel are not best pleased either!
