We stayed in this elegant, comfortable and historical hotel. The room was traditionally English, the bed was so comfortable and had all essential facilities. We had cocktails in the bar before dinner, and entertained by
Malcolm who had a good knowledge of the area and regaled humorous stories which had overtones of being at Fawlty Towers in a very very good way!! Fantastic food, and great service. Breakfast was exceptional and again great service. We will definitely return again, as we can be assured of a comfortable and relaxing stay. We would definitely recommend this hotel and also book directly with the hotel for the best deal. You will not be disappointed.

What a nice place to find, everything about it was good, the food was very nice, the friendly staff made for a very enjoyable stay. The accomadation was clean and well presented. Even though visiting in the winter the grounds looked very nice and made exciting with the beautiful Black Swans on the lake. Oh and I almost forgot the breakfast was very good too. All in all would really recommend for a meal or an over night stay. Look forward to the next time.

We decided to upgrade and treat ourselves to a suite and we requested The Royalist Suite, which happens to be the biggest room at the hotel. The room is designed in keeping with the Royalists with a mix of Tudor - absolutely stunning. The added bonus is the jacuzzi. The room overlooks the moat and it’s resident black swans.
At this time of year there is a set menu and the price is very good. The food is well presented and lovely. What we were really impressed with is the chef catered for our severe nut allergy. The staff were amazing and helpful.
The only complaints we have is the room is above the dining area and there was a large party of people which could be heard in the bedroom and the food served in the dining area could be smelt in the room - Camembert isn’t a great room fragrance, but better in our bellies.
Overall a great stay and we’ll be coming back

We visited for Sunday Lunch with family. We were welcomed on arrival by Malcolm who made us feel instantly welcome. He handed us menus and helped with our wine choice - he appeared very knowledgable.
The service throughout our visit was excellent. Sadly the same cannot be said for the food. One or two dishes were good; the Whitebait starter and Tuna main, but other dishes all seemed dry. Namely, dry black pudding starter, dry roast beef, (overdone, with not a hint of pink), and even dry chocolate bread and butter pudding.
I had been so looking forward to my visit. The setting at Albright Hussey is superb and the beautiful dining room a delight, but the whole experience was let down by the standard of cooking.

Room was nice, clean and cosy. Food was excellent. Disappointed that there was no real ale available. One thing that I did find odd for an establishment such as this was, although obviously clean and fresh, the bed sheets hadn't been ironed !

The staff are so friendly and helpful couldn’t compliment them enough! Very good!
The room was a bit outdated and needed an upgrade.
We were not told and event was going on on arrival so could use the restaurant or bar which was disappointing!
The food was good. And reasonable price, nothing to rave about.

WOW are you kidding me!! We pulled up to the Albright Hussey at dusk when the birds were singing, the swans were gliding in the pond and the willow tree was swaying in the soft breeze and it was like stepping onto an Elizabethan movie set. So beautiful. At reception I was greeted with a friendly welcome face and three crystal decanters of port to celebrate your arrival. I was then led to the Hussey suite in the old building and that's when I absolutely lost my mind. This room - let me just say the photos don't do it justice. It's HUGE and framed completely with 500 year old split timbers. Four poster bed (and a four-poster TUB! I've never seen such a thing!), sitting area, fireplace, suit press, tea kettle, armoire, giant luxurious bathroom, I wish I had a week to spend here. I would fly back to England and get a train to Shrewsbury just to stay here again. Absolutely incredible and one of the top five hotel experiences I've ever had. Simply can't recommend it highly enough.

Absolutely wonderful hotel. Malcom is a total star. Very welcoming. The building and surroundings are beautiful. The room was spotless with every amenity you could possibly need. My partner and I would definitely recommend a stay here.

My friends and I (4 in total) arrived for the barbq with the eat out to help out scheme. We signed in and found a table, it had not been cleaned!!!! So my partner went to the bar and was given a cloth and fluid to clean it himself. We didn't really know how it worked but we soon figured it out. We thoroughly enjoyed the views across the beautiful shropshire countryside. All of us thought the food was tasty but the price did not reflect the quantity (about the size of a starter) and were left hungry. A young girl came and cleared our table, her dress was quite inappropriate, in no way corporate, looked like someone's daughter. I feel we got what we paid for which to me means the restaurant are pocketing the contribution from the government. I have messaged them via messenger with my points but have heard nothing back. The staff were dour. We were prepared to stay a few hours so took warm clothing and blankets, we were there no longer than an hour. All in all a very disappointing experience. Such as shame as it's a stunning location.

Our family of 5 spent an evening at the Albright Hussey pizza night this weekend. Firstly and most importantly the pizzas are delicious and excellent value, freshly prepared and cooked in an outdoor pizza oven we all agreed they were some of the best we have ever tasted (including holidays in Italy!) The laid back atmosphere adds to a great family night out, all the staff were friendly, attentive and efficient. This is clearly a business that has faced significant challenges in the last few months due to the ongoing pandemic, they are having to adapt and try something new and they are doing it with great success!!
