Great staff, good food, comfortable

Great staff, bar was packed on arrival but we were checked in to our room straight away. Far too busy & noisy to eat in the bar, so they opened the restaurant for us and another couple so that we could eat in peace. Despite the number of customers we were served quickly and efficiently. Very good food. Room was a bit tired, flaking paint and in need of a bit of updating but the bed was comfortable and the room reasonably quiet even though on a main street. Good location just on the edge of the town centre. If parking, beware the Wyle Cop NCP, equipment doesn’t work, you have to have an App to pay and it took us an hour to get a payment through by telephone.

A wonderful experience in a lovely old building. Beautiful room with en-suite and very comfortable bed. Menu and bar are excellent. That said, this establishment would not suit everyone as our room was next to the very noisy beer garden. We certainly didn’t find this an issue. Perfectly situated for the city centre if you are looking for an evening out and it’s peaceful later for a great nights sleep. If we ever return to Shrewsbury this place is our definite go to.

Great rooms close to all amenities

Cromwells is in a great position in the town with nearby car parking. We were greeted with a smile by the staff and shown our room (5). Room was large, clean and the bed was large and comfy, also plenty of tea/coffee. If you're a light sleeper I'd suggest ear plugs as, although there is double glazing (it's an old building), you can still hear some noise from the street. Sadly we never used the bar area but it looked lovely. We enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to return.

In the heart of the historic city and close to the river and park. You will hear music from the bar below in the evening, but this is to be expected and there were no rowdy people. Easy to check in at the bar.

The staff were excellent and the food downstairs was superb. Could not fault either. However, the bed in the room was extremely uncomfortable and my back hurt for about a week. The room was very noisy (not much could really be done about that tbf). The top of the bed was extremely dusty with a message written in it! Shower was decent and it looked nice from the outside. Shame the bed, noise and cleanliness blighted our experience.

'Superior Double Room' + Nice space, clean, reasonable size and good shower! - could do with a new carpet & matress! - noise from the road outside from around 0700; some noise could still be heard from the pub staff until 0100 (albeit more thin wall/ceiling rather than noisy staff!)
