Tired and dated
Good location in the centre of Shrewsbury. Room was dated and in need of refurbishment. Dated TV in the room (with no HDMI terminal) switched itself off and switched itself on for no discernible reason. Suspect that the standard of the room allocated was due to reserving through Hotels.com rather than directly with the establishment as seems to be the practice among many establishments.

Lovely Shrewsbury stay
This was our first visit to Shrewsbury with the intention to do some Christmas shopping. We had some issues with parking due to the road closures but we parked at the station which was easy and only a 10 minute walk to the hotel. Amazing service at check in, so friendly and efficient. Breakfast was nice but unfortunately we were made to feel as though we didn't belong there which has now put us off staying at the hotel again.

We stayed here for my wife’s 55th birthday. My wife has mobility issues and the staff were very accommodating to her needs. As usual staff are very attentive, polite and friendly. Only issue is they have changed the evening menu and was not to our taste so dined out in the evening. Bar menu and breakfast excellent with lots of choice. Fantastic stay once again 😊

We stayed at the Prince Rupert for six nights. The rooms are nice if a bit tired. However, the newly refurbished bathrooms have a tap and sink arrangement that doesn't work at all making even simple hand washing annoyingly awkward. The water pressure in the shower is poor too. The breakfast is good, and the staff could not be nicer or more helpful and the hotel's location is beautiful and handy for everything in Shrewsbury. We would return, but sort the sink and taps, please.

Fabulous restaurant Room was ok. Some areas looking like needing some attention but expect they are working their way through Communal areas very tidy and fresh. Great location. I would advise parking on outside edge of town as. Nightmare one way system Only 20 mins to walk across the town.
