You cant deny the charm and character (in the main) of the place and it's a nice setting for a hotel. The staff are welcoming, friendly and attentive but this can't really compensate for the shortcomings. OUr room was a a little on the small side (although cramped comes to mind) but was OK although the bed was touch soft for our tastes. The bathroom needed a bit of a refurb: a tap was loose, the window didn't open and the bath panel was coming away; the cabinet was chipped and tatty. A little soundproofing wouldn't go amiss either (or getting quieter guests): we could the TV in the adjacent room and what the occupants were saying; cars were also parked beneath the room qhich meant noise from them and their occupants. The restaurant was nothing more than OK, bordering on the poor. The main was cold (but the vegetables hot) but the entire main course was dull and uninspired and lacked any style. However the staff were exemplary in terms of service: very old school and most professional. Breakfast was OK even though it was from hotplates (but the scrambled egg rather insipid). All in all a disappointment and I couldn't, in all honesty, say that it meets my requirement for a 4 star hotel. A small tip: I looked through Tripadvisor and had a look at a prices via Expedia: this was £25 more than going direct to the hotel's website.

Met up with friends for overnight stay. Rooms comfortable and clean. Plenty of hot water for the bath and shower. Staff extremely courteous and helpful. Service excellent. Fabulous dinner, everyone enjoyed their evening meal as well as the English breakfast with eggs individually fried on request. General Manager Malcolm was interested in feedback and made himself freely available had we any issues that required his intervention. We shall be going back.

My husband & I stayed here last night. It was our 3rd stay...The previous visits had been in the month of March for our wedding anniversary but we decided to go and celebrate my birthday there this year. It was much busier there given the time of year and there was also a Christmas function on but that didn't spoil our time there. From the moment we arrived we were dealt with promptly and professionally at check in. It was lovely to be remembered from our earlier stays....thank you Malcolm and Javier and even though we were at the Manor at a very busy time of year we felt looked after.
We chose to have the A La Carte menu instead of Christmas Fayre....after all it's not Christmas until after my birthday! The dinner was sublime....fantastic service as usual. We wanted a bottle of Red to compliment our courses and as usual Javier was on hand to recommend what was the best red wine we have had....I had to take a note of it as we will definitely be buying some bottles soon. As we were leaving today after a fab breakfast the lady at reception whose name I didnt get...I'm sorry...was quick to make sure that we hadn't been disturbed by the party guests....I assured her we hadn't and it was clear that they had allocated us a room away from any ongoing festivities. Overall I can say that we weren't disappointed and didn't think we would be and that a stay at the Albright Hussey at any time of year is something special. Highly recommended and we certainly will be visiting again soon....even if it's just to talk to Javier about Real Madrid retaining the Champions League trophy! Good job I like my football!

Booked this hotel for just one night - wish it was more! The setting is beautiful as was our room. All the staff were very helpful & friendly but also very professional. Breakfast was excellent. Everything we needed. Most definitely be going back - this time for longer than 1 night and hopefully get to sample the food in the restaurant. The menu looked amazing.

We booked this for one night as we were going to a concert nearby. On arrival we were greeted by very friendly staff and shown quickly to our room. Unfortunately there was a problem with the heating but when we reported it we were immediately moved to a different room which was in fact a lot bigger and nicer than the first one. The manager ordered us a taxi and recommended a restaurant to eat in nearby Shrewsbury which was lovely. Bistro Jacques which provided lovely pre theatre meal at very reasonable price. On returning to the hotel the bar was opened for us and we could have stayed there all night. The room was comfortable and clean and everything we needed. Breakfast was very nice. All in all a really lovely hotel which I have hesitation in recommending.

Having had a few hit and miss New Years Eve functions behind us, we were a little hesitant about going down the hotel formal function route again, but after a great stay at the hotel earlier in the year we decided to give it another go. Good decision!
What a difference and what a genuine pleasure this stay turned out to be. The room was ready on arrival and as with our previous stay was immaculate. Plenty of time to relax after the drive before enjoying a mid afternoon tipple and getting a guide through the wine list from the helpful Javier.
Evening started with champagne and canapés and introductions and was followed by a well devised, beautifully cooked and excellently presented 5 course dinner. The main course of Beef Rossini was as good as, we have had anywhere.
Food excellent, wine list extensive- job done. Not quite, what made the night that little more special, was that you were made to feel like you were friends of the hotel and the staff and owners who clearly put their hearts into making this evening a great success. Well done.
We are coming back!
Nearly forgot, breakfast was excellent, as well.

Four in our part had an overnight stay at the Albright Hussey Manor Hotel on Saturday. A very impressive Tudor Manor from the outside. And the inside was equally so. We had booked via Travel Zoo for gourmet evening meal. What an array of food to get the taste buds tingling. A mix of foods you wouldn't have imagined would go together, but they did. The pigeon breast and pulled pork was mouthwatering. Celeriac soup delicious. And the beef cooked to perfection. By the end of the eight courses we were all savouring the flavours and congratulations to the Chef. And we were waited on with courtesy and friendliness combined. The staff were very friendly and our rooms were as requested. Full English breakfast on Sunday with succulent sausages, scrambled eggs, black pudding, tasty bacon etc. followed by Danish pastries which you couldn't resist. What a great way to dine out. A big Thank You to all at the Hotel.

Me and my partner stayed here at the weekend after attending my works do to celebrate 25 years of trading. The whole organisation of the evening was brilliant everything happened when it was supposed too, staff were constantly running around catering for our needs and not to mention how beautiful they made the function room. Everything we wanted we was able to get without any fuss and all at very reasonable prices! The hotel itself truly is beautiful, not only the scenery but the pure simplicity of the old building. It's kept its character which makes it all the more a pleasure to be there. We stayed in room 14 & was pleasantly surprised on the size of the room! We had a hall way leading off to the bedroom, bathroom & also a cute little sitting room! We did not order or eat at the restaurant due to having the food at our function... But the selection of food and the way it was presented even for a buffet was outstanding & tasted Delish. Breakfast in the morning was lovely, a help yourself type breakie accompanied by lovely staff at your hand. I would recommend this hotel to anyone & would like to say thank you for making our evening spectacular!

Our first stay and we were not disappointed.
I had a prior engagement and another later that evening and we arrived late.
However nothing was too much trouble and whilst my partner dined alone the food and attention afforded her were excellent and all this on an evening when they had a dinner event for 70 going on a the same time.
