Unfortunately, we were given a room that has a very squeaky floor. Had we stay more than one night I would have insist on changing the room. The decor is dated and wall paper is peeling off the wall. Not something that I would expect from a 4 star hotel. The breakfast was excellently cooked served by very efficient and courteous waiting staff. Car parking is not ideal although it is only a short walk from the hotel, it was not easy to find it through the one way system from the hotel. It was lucky one of the hotel staff offered to guide me there in my car as she has just finished her shift and on her way to the car park. Expedia should have made it clearer what 'self parking available' means - the car park is not free. Last but not least, one of the receptionists had gone over and beyond to locate my wife's lost glasses successfully by going all the way to look inside our car in their car park that was over 5 minutes away.

Central location, very comfortable room with a bath! and very good, individually cooked, breakfast (apart from 'Lurpack' instead of butter!) Despite that, I will be back.

This hotel is right in the hub of all things going on . Staff were fantastic each and every one of them so a big thank you to you all. We ate at the hotel our meal was superb. Our room was a standard room as we really did book the trip on the last minute but the room was spot less and very comfortable. Here and there there is need to update the place but that is not a slur on the place. Had our breakfast it was lovely and plentiful. Very highly recommend The prince Rupert.

Receptionist on arrival was very welcoming and informative and offered us either a glass of sherry or iced water which was a nice welcome especially on a hot day....our room was clean and comfortable and had all that is needed, but for a 4 star hotel a little dated, but you're not there to stay in your room...the breakfasts are good and the service fine.... only thing that I can have a niggle about is there was nowhere to hang your clothes in the bathroom otherwise an enjoyable stay 👍

Really good Hotel in the centre of Shrewsbury. From a welcome Sherry on arrival to a fantastic breakfast on leaving, we had a great stay. The room was spacious and clean, barring a rather large cobweb in one of corners. Everything we needed was there.

Extremely Disappointing We stayed for 4 nights at the Prince Rupert - as a designated 4 star we were expecting it to be substantially than the Premier Inn/Travelodge type establishments we typically stay at. The cost was just under £200 more that the local (better located) premier inn. We were bitterly disappointed. There is lots to tell about the bedroom. It was very small and a very strange shape having been fitted into an awkward corner of the hotel; the room layout bore no relationship to the photo on the Expedia site. Some observations: * No cooling or fan - the days we stayed were during a summer ‘26 heat wave. * Windows do not open fully because of a very cheap secondary glazing system - and offer little cooling effect. * The TV is fixed to a side wall and is not visible from the beds * Rooms are serviced in the late afternoon or early evening; guests are required to leave the room and wait in reception while their room is bring cleaned * Room cleaning was superficial. * The furniture is old and poorly maintained. * The paintwork and carpets need replacing. Other Expedia reviews were complimentary about the friendly staff. We found, with exception of the server in the breakfast room, to be grumpy and generally unfriendly , few smiles. The car parking is appalling. The Expedia Site states “Parking on site (GBP £10 per night)”. This is incorrect, there is an area of waste ground approximately 5 minutes walk down a cobbled road (difficult with wheeled suit

Excellent stay in a fabulous room, staff were very helpful and welcoming, lovely relaxed bar area. Food was delicious. The Hotel is located right in the heart of Shrewsbury with fantastic local facilities on your doorstep. The only 1 small negative was the shower had very low water pressure but otherwise fantastic time

Excellent hotel but the room was too hot during a very hot period this summer. Maybe some fans would be good. I thought parking was at the hotel but it was a 5 minute walk and not easy to find.

Not having visited Shrewsbury for many years, I wanted to stay in the town centre. The Prince Rupert is a really nice hotel, even if finding it given the intricate one-way system makes things difficult, as does finding the hotel parking lot. The only thing to complain about was the fact that the rooms had no air conditioning, and as the daytime temperature was about 38°C, sleep was hard to come by. But this is an uncommon temperature in Shropshire! I would certainly stay there again, as it is very central for all of the city's amenities.

All the staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was really good and set us up for the day. Evening meals were a bit pricey for a mid week break. You can't get anymore central to explore Shrewsbury. I would stay here again without hesitation.
