Albright Hussey Manor Hotel
Latest Reviews
What a delightful find. Wanted a couple of nights up near Shrewsbury to visit some friends are the sample menu is what really did it for me. The food is very very good.
Its based around a near 600 year old pad and has been expanded a bit, but fundamentally is very old. So the comments on TA about cobwebs or a bit or dust or dirt, or a draught ... well .. that what you get with very old places. They need airflow or get damp (so go to a Premier Inn if you want sterile). This said, on the Friday is was very very cold. You can get heaters for the rooms and they will take the chill off. This is very old building on top of a hill so when its cold and windy, expect a bit of chill. Rooms are nice and no problem at all.
We booked dinner for both nights as we could not be bothered to travel and so glad we did. Just amazing food (if the attachments are not stripped by TA then I posted images). The Haggis sausages with the Guinea fowl were just amazing ! Lovely breakfast as well: Full English, pastries, Kippers & Smoked Haddock ... even made some porridge for someone who asked for it.
Its a small hotel and in the bar area people talked to each other. Pleasant atmosphere with invisible bar staff... until you needed a top up and would miraculously just appear ... all so very chilled, relaxed and pleasant.
All the staff were very friendly and helpful but the star of the show was Malcolm (the Manager). He made everyone chuckle and not hard to see why the staff like working for him. Nothing was too much trouble.
They do weddings there and I was surprised that last year it was 98 but there is a large function room so I would doubt there would be any real disturbance (unlike many a hotel). I am amazed the Black Swans they have are not bored of them all being just by their moat by now.
We travel around a fair bit and this is hotel is most definitely on the 'must return too' list

Superb in every way
Gorgeous period hysteric Shrewsbury family owned hotel
Superb tremendous staff with excellent customer service customer happiness standards
Go more than that extra mile definitely go above and beyond for its customers even when we came down late for breakfast the lovely lady chef accommodated us still and was lovely .
Malcom And his team were fantastic he is the General Manager and outstanding host .
Barry the night porter a very kind accommodating pleasant chap a pleasure to chat to and Kirsten who did my original booking and our checkout outstanding
My advice to people is book the hotel direct not through a booking agency because it is much better Kirsten was amazing when Booking.com messed my original booking up but she sorted it and was so lovely efficient and brill so well done to her .
We took our KCS dog who everyone loved and they treated her like a human princess and they are a super dog friendly hotel all the staff love dogs and treat them as if they were their own which we loved
We ate in the restaurant for my husbands birthday the food was just to die for and the restaurant beautiful period historic surroundings were just so lovely

This place never disappoints. We had a beautiful Sunday dinner on this occasion. Despite the fact that we were the last people there it was delicious and we were made to feel welcome. We got married here and it was the best places we saw. Rooms are well equipped and very clean. Breakfast was delightful but most of all the staff are amazing. Attentive, professional and warm.

Had a really rough day and the tow truck driver found this place for us. The staff could see we had a rough day and despite the restaurant closing in 3 minutes asked if we needed some food. After walking us to our rooms and showing us around, the Gabe nine of us a full spread of sandwiches, cheeses and fruit among other things. My family was thinking me for breaking down. The made a rough day great again. If you can stay here, do it. The grounds are beautiful, the rooms are nice, the food is good and the staff is incredible.

Stunning surrounding, we were at a wedding reception. Silver service, being a vegan I had;, starter was melon, main course mushroom Risotto, sweet was choc torte/ brownie. Very nice .
I didn't feel the dance floor was big enough for the amount of people that wanted to be on it. Gorgeous venue though and I would definitely recommend.

We got married here. And there is only one word I could use to describe this place and that's amazing! I can not recommend this place enough nothing is to much for the team, not only did it give me my dream wedding venue but we also come back for meals and they are amazing. The service is brilliant and you get treated like royalty. The hussy team are brilliant ❤

We stayed for 1 night in the business double room in the new part of the hotel. The room was very clean however very old fashioned, we got plenty of teas, coffees etc in the room. We found that the walls was fairly thin so could hear conversations from next door and the corridor was noisy in the morning when majority of people would be up and about for breakfast.
We come across plenty of staff and every single one was so pleasant, they couldn’t do enough for us and we seen this happen with other guests to. There was a wedding on and despite the busy atmosphere from that, the staff still found time to talk with you, help you and to make you feel the most welcome. We travelled into Shrewsbury town centre in the evening, Malcolm the gentlemen who worked there was extremely helpful in helping us get a taxi, (taxis are very reasonable). Overall if we choose to visit Shrewsbury again, the Albright Hussey Manor will be our first choice for accommodation! 5*

Good food but very sparing on portion sizes and odd vegetable offerings. A hint of gravy and 1 and a half tiny roast potatoes as standard roast dinner plate. Lovely surroundings but food let's it down considerably. Obviously has seen better fare in the past but lacks that inspirational pizzazz of considered attention to detail.
Service is reasonable but then it is a little restaurant with just 10 smaller tables serving up to 30 people at a push. Excellent selection of alcoholic drinks with some absurdly good cognacs, rum, gin and whiskies. You get what you pay for.

Absolutely beautiful place, we had our wedding here and nothing was to much trouble for them. We have been back for our 1st year anniversary for a meal and again nothing was to much. Food was fantastic

Beautiful location for your special occasion. Overlooking the rolling Shropshire countryside with interesting architecture. Landscaped terrace was enchanting. Friendly, intimate venue. Great for weddings and anniversaries.

Has heaps of character. We had Sunday lunch here recently and the food quality was a bit meh. Definitely prefer it as a dinner venue than a lunch one

A beautiful hotel with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend the rooms in the oldest part, which dates from 1524.
