We booked here as a quick bank holiday getaway, and while the hotel was beautiful and the grounds are great (even in the British rain!) there were a few little details that stopped this being a 5-star review.
The location isn't too far from Shrewsbury town centre, however, it is more ideal if you drive as not everyone can afford or be able to get a taxi here, and public transport looks nonexistent.
On arrival, we were shown to our room and asked if we'd like a cooked breakfast in the morning. We said yes, and looked forward to the morning. The room itself was beautiful, but the bed was far too creaky even to sit on, and not ideal for 'romantic' activities. The spa bath was lovely, however, it is an accessiblility nightmare even for able bodied people. The bath is far too deep with no step up into the bath, or to reach the taps, which could lead to a serious fall. Throughout the night, also, the noise travels quite easily from the downstairs areas into the rooms. Also, we were informed by signage to close the bathroom door whilst running the bath and to switch the extractor fan to clear the steam - but there was no extractor fan?
The next morning we went downstairs to have our cooked breakfast, and while the service was polite, it was also lacking in terms of coffee refreshment and choice of breakfasts.
After this, we went to reception to book out and were presented with the bill of £15 per person for the cooked breakfast - which wasn't mentioned the night before. The issue of the money isn't the problem, but the cost should have been mentioned before taking our names for breakfast. Also, when booking out, we asked for numbers for a local taxi service and the receptionist looked taken aback, and gave us a piece of paper with numbers to call, with no offer to call for us or an offer of help.
The setting was lovely, and the age of the building shone through, however, I would struggle to recommend it at the cost displayed on the website, and struggle to see where the quality of the 4-star rating is.

The place was amazing, food delicious and the staff very friendly, but we did have to keep going to find them to refresh food and drink

Old building but expensive for what it is. Restaurant is very nice but the standard of catering is very poor. You have to book food before you arrive from a very basic and simple menu. More a BnB than a rated hotel.

A fabulous historic hotel set in glorious Shropshire countryside. Staff were very attentive and friendly, both to us and our dog! Lovely bedroom with lots of extras. Only disappointment was not being able to eat there on either night of our stay due to functions.

We stayed at Albright Hussey Manor for one night. Room was very comfortable and clean. Nice traditional decor and our room had a good view of the gardens. Lovely cooked breakfast, friendly staff and only a 10 minute drive into centre of Shrewsbury.

Booked this hotel to save our wedding anniversary from disaster following a very bad booking. Lovely spacious room in the old building with a jacuzzi bath for two people. Although a little cold a heater was provided and once in bed soon warmed up! Lovely hotel and the staff are lovely will definitely come again. Thankyou!

Went with my family for a 'clan' gathering, 5 rooms booked for a night's B&B + dinner. Really beautiful and historic building. The 2 rooms in the 'new' wing were pleasant and comfy, but the ones in the historic old building were fantastic (unless you dislike characterful and quirky!). Food wasn't being served when we arrived early afternoon, but the chef made up a great plate of fresh sandwiches and chips. Dinner and breakfast were excellent. Highly recommended, but go for the old rooms!

The reception staff were just wonderful and attentive. The accommodation was beautiful and despite ice cold weather the accommodation was beautifully warm. The Christmas meal was a delight.

My new wife and I had our wedding here October 26th. Paul, Emma and the rest of the team (sorry, didn't catch names!) were all fantastic. We approached them earlier in the year after we were severely let down by Madeley Court Hotel. Paul and Emma made us feel so welcome and we wished we found them straight away when looking for a venue! The day itself was so well organised that we didn't need to worry or stress. They set up an indoor and outdoor area for the ceremony to see what the weather was doing and we thankfully had it outside. It was such a special occasion. The wedding breakfast was brilliant. Everyone enjoyed the food. Then, in the evening, the house DJ (again, didn't catch a name) was brilliant too. He knew how to keep the dance floor full. Then, for night time, we stayed in a lovely historic bedroom. We were knackered, but enjoyed the jacuzzi bath! Thank you Albright Hussey team!
