We stayed here for 2 nights for the wedding of our daughter at the hotel. The hotel is beautiful and the grounds are absolutely stunning. There is even a little playground area for the children. All of the staff at the hotel were professional, friendly, and very caring. Their organising of the wedding was faultless, both beforehand and on the day.
The rooms were spotless and the ladies who looked after them were lovely. The cheery helpful team at breakfast were a joy, and our baby grandson loved them. The same team also did a fantastic job of preparing the tables for the wedding, it looked lovely.
To Paul, Terrie, David and all of the staff you were amazing.Thank you.

wow!!! The staff particularly Malcolm and Andrew on this stay were fantastic.
We love this place and this is due to the care and consideration of Paul and his staff.
Clean rooms, laundry etc, nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff and they always exceed expectations.
Food was beautiful, hot and delicious, including the breakfast.
Thankyou for yet another unforgettable experience xx

First visit to this lovely hotel, brothers wedding. It was fabulous. Food (we are veggies) was lovely and the staff couldn't do enough for us. The service was held outdoors and was very romantic, sorrounded by lovely gardens. So many picture opportunities at this hotel. Lots of character and atmosphere. Evening party was full of energy, food and music fantastic. Would highly recommend this venue for any event.

Stayed here for my sisters wedding all I can say is Wow. Such a beautiful day from start to finish. The staff here are excellent and so friendly. The man who was serving at breakfast who I think was the manager was so bright and cheered up a rainy morning after a beautiful wedding.
We stayed in the piggott suite and the room was absolutely gorgeous I loved the Historical surroundings. I also got to spend some time in the Hussey suite where my sister was staying and it was absolutely beautiful perfect for the married couple to spend a wedding night.
The grounds are lovely and its a great location to explore Shrewsbury if you are visiting.
Food was lovely and breakfast was included with the room it was very nice.
The room was £120 which is fine for the beautiful surroundings and for a special occasion. I would stay again if I was celebrating something special.

Clearly some trouble has been taken to improve this hotel and it does have some lovely architectural features. That said, what a disappointment. It is fusty, musty and smelt like an old folks home, or hospital. We wondered if it was a polish they were using but it was very overpowering and not pleasant. Many windows frosted and shut - and when we did see one open we could see why as it overlooked a very derelict area. From the front though it is charming. The bed was comfortable and whilst the room décor was not to my taste it was obvious that time and care had been taken it putting it together. Service was no more than adequate though this was not due to the staff, rather the lack of them.
Food was good though fixed menu so repeat visits not really an option for us.
Wi Fi available though poor and has to be asked for rather than access being given freely.
this falls into the class of a typical English hotel which needs to be dragged into the 21st century.

Just returned from the most fantastic weekend, Paul Owner/Manager was extremely attentive. Staff excellent. Room out of this world. Stayed in The Royalist Suite, breathtaking. Food fantastic and Breakfast perfect. One of the best places I've stayed. Will definitely return! 😀

Room was just about acceptable in terms of size, with about enough room for two chairs and a small side table, along woth double bed, dressing table and side cabinets. The bathroom was again only just big enough to incorporate bath, toliet and basin, which was disappointing for a four star hotel charging more than £100 for b & b. The appearance of the bedroom can best be described as "bland" with what appeared to be stock prints in heavy gilt frames displayed throughout.
The bed itself was comfortable and add ons such a trouser press, tea and coffee making facilities were present but we were glad we were only staying for one night, for which it was satisfactory.

We had booked three nights at the Albright Hussey, travelling with friends on one of our frequent jollies. On the morning we were to travel, my wife was unwell, so we suggested our friends went ahead and we would follow on under our own steam, either that day or the following. Bare with me. This is relevant.
We were actually able to set off with a four hour drive ahead around midday although my wife was still not too well, On arrival, our friends having acquainted the management of the circumstances, we were met by Paul, who could not have been more solicitous assuring us that, in the circumstances, he would not have charged us for the room if we hadn't made it that day and arranged for my wife, at her request, to have a light meal in our room that evening, while I dined with our friends. The way we were treated was exemplary and, fortunately, my wife had fully recovered by the following morning so we were able to enjoy the rest of our break,
After having been treated so well, it pains me to give anything but praise in regard to our stay and indeed there was nothing terribly amiss. It was just that, in some areas, the hotel was a little lack lustre. The rooms were adequate. Our friends had a suite in the original part of the hotel which was reasonably spacious but, they told us, not particularly convenient. The four poster jaccuzi, (yes, really) was not really appreciated. We occupied a cheaper, smaller room which was better laid out but didn't have much natural light, Nevertheless, the bed was comfortable and the bathroom a decent size with a good shower.
Food was not an issue. A good choice of well prepared dishes served by attentive and friendly staff. Breakfast was above average on two mornings but fell short on one morning when it was presented on a DIY basis from hotplates, never a good option. The wine list was well thought out and the prices reasonable.
It's fair to say that we enjoyed our stay at the Albright Hussey as a one off but I don't think any of us will be rushing to return there.

This was our second visit to this hotel and we were a little dubious about returning, as, even though the food and service were absolutely faultless, we were concerned about the quality of rooms.
There is a very strange aroma, (maybe of disinfectant) throughout the bedroom areas.
On this visit we stayed in room 18 which, though well appointed, could do with a makeover.
Saying that, we had all we could have asked for.
That said, the rest of our experience was superb. The receptionist was a lovely young lady and the dining room/ bar staff wonderful. Food and wine superb.
We will certainly return.

Came here for accommodation as we were at nearby Pimhill Barn for a wedding.
It's a mix of really old and quaint along with modern accommodation. The room we had was clean tidy and had a really nice powerful shower. We were blown away by the genuine friendliness of the staff and there willingness to talk to you. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was really tasty and very good quality, in a super setting. We also had great Nespresso Lattes. We loved the General Manager Malcom who was an absolute delight. Noor who looked after us at breakfast was so helpful and nice. Rebecca on reception was delightful too. They made a good stay a great stay! Hope to visit again soon.
