A fabulous weekender with a very warm welcome, enjoyed the historical tour of the house and it made a great place to stay to explore the area. Although in the town centre, the room (Mary Tudor Suit) was very quiet. More

Despite cold and dismal weather the whole Shrewsbury experience (what a great old town, enclosed by the river with a scarcity of 'chain' shops) was greatly enhanced by this accomodation. The place has a really great history and your host will probably take you on a tour of the highlights which is truly fascinating, and your host has researched a... More

We had the best Twixmas break ever (have been doing this many years) at this truly unique bed and breakfast. The building is right in the heart of town and fabulous - the tour is highly recomended for history buffs! The Mary Tudor Suite is beautiful as is the main room in the Thomas Bromley suite - the second bedroom... More

Stayed two nights at the end of a winter walking holiday to add a little luxury to the holiday. A surprise present for my wife as we'd tried many times to book. We were not in the least bit disappointed after a long wait and the atmosphere, warm welcome and sense of history lived up to the many previous reports... More

Having decided to have a break in Shrewsbury, used TA to see what was on offer and booked here based on the reviews. My only complaint about the mostly 5s and the odd, clearly curmudgeonly, 4 is that they go nowhere near doing this place justice. The overall effect is of staying with agreeable and well to do friends. The... More

We actually stayed in the Anne Boleyn Suite at the same property and it was an incredible experience. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and even included a tour of the house with it's full history going back 500 years! Evereything about the stay was first class and I cannot recommend this highly enough. The room was very large with... More

From the minute you find this place you know you it's something special! My husband and myself travel extensively with our jobs so when we go away together we prefer to steer clear of corporate hotels and spend significant time searching for accommodations that is warm and inviting. The Old House Suites is all of that and much much more!... More

I decided to stay here for the night before my wedding at Shrewsbury Castle with my mother and 2 daughters after the reviews on trip advisor, we stayed in the Thomas Bromley suite and then myself and my husband stayed in the Catherine of Arragon suite on the following night. The stay made the wedding extra special, the hospitality could... More
