Of the two major town centre hotels - the Rupert and the Lion it is difficult to choose between them - both come out top in different ways. The rooms in the Rupert are slightly better but some of the renewed ones in the Lion are better. Both are adequate but not large. The service is perhaps a little friendlier... more

My wife and I have been staying at the Rupert on nights away since 1971. The hotel has recently been given a make over, and it is better than ever. We stayed in one of the Mansion house suites which have lots of atmosphere but with up to date features such as digital TV. We ate in the Royalist restaurant... more

This hotel is in need of a facelift. The bedroom was shabby and the bathroom very dated with chipped pink enamel bathand basin. The water pressure for the loo and the shower was non existent.Threadbare carpet on the landings and a generally tired look in the public rooms. On the plus side the hotel is well located with efficient valet... more

A large group of us used the Prince Rupert Hotel as our base for a weekend of activities in the Shrewsbury area. Approximately 60 of us stayed at the hotel, while another 40 or so joined us for meals and other activities. Our group (West Midlands Mensa) arrange a weekend of this nature most years, and this has to be... more

The Prince Rupert is an Independent family owned Hotel in a superb location in the heart of Shrewsbury. It is somewhat old-fashioned and this is both beneficial and detrimental to the customer experience. A benefit is a delightful "Heritage" experience in a genuinely old timbered building full of odd corners, dark wood and sloping floors. Squeezed into the fabric of... more

I booked my stay at this hotel, at first they had a hard time locating my reservation but eventually they did. They hotel is a nice location and the room, though not attractive to look at and the area was a bit noisy but it was fine. The following day I spoke with a woman at the front desk about... more

Prince Rupert We stayed three nights for the Shrewsbury Folk Festival in August 2009. I had previously avoided folk festivals thinking them equivalent to pulling teeth but found the music and performance mostly very good and I really enjoyed the gig. I have got used to spending 10 minutes responding to e-mail and checking the weather before setting out. It... more
