Great location and wonderful staff

Great location and wonderful staff. Furniture in the room needs replacing. Mattress very uncomfortable and you rolled into the middle. Nice breakfast with efficient service. The parking directions could do with being shared prior the stay as it is a few minutes walk away from the hotel.

All the staff were friendly and welcoming which we loved. The hotel is centrally located but in a very quite position. At breakfast there was a good choice and brilliant service. Our only negative is that it is a little dated but as it is well maintained and very clean we would absolutely stay here again.

We arrived to be told the authorities decided to close certain roads in the town on a Saturday and Sunday after COVID until 4pm .The car park was a 3 minute walk away but getting to it by car proved difficult as the SAT nav wanted to take us along the closed roads .After much frustration we got there in the end .It's sign posted for use of guests of the lion hotel but you can parkin it if you are staying at the Prince Rupert. Having got that advice out of the way on to the Prince Rupert hotel. The ladies on the reception were wonderful.Pleasant ,warm welcoming and very helpful.The hotel had a good feeling about it and much bigger than we expected with a lounge bar and restaurant.Breakfast was included in the cost which was very nice and there was continental and cooked available.We had a twin room with a walk in shower as that was our choice.It was clean with everything you would need for the stay The hotel was in the middle of everything.What a beautiful place to visit . Quirky shops and an abundance of places to eat and have a drink.We ate at a Spanish restaurant and sat for 2 hours eating delicious tapas . I would definitely visit Shrewsbury again and certainly stay at the Prince Rupert.Next time we would be prepared for the parking!!!!

Lovely hotel right in the town centre, very friendly and helpful staff, definitely stay again. Car parking is a 5 min walk with luggage when roads closed at weekend which wasn't a problem for us.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The fittings and decor are a bit dated but the bed was really comfortable and the linen and towels were lovely. I would suggest getting a room nearer the back of the hotel, we were on the front and it was rather noisy from the pub next door. Although the parking may seem a little complicated it's good value for being in the town and we extended the next morning at a better rate than if we had moved it. Really good location to explore the town and for walking the local area
