The Loopy Shrew

Stayed for two nights midweek. At first we wondered what we had come to as there was a urine smell at the bottom of the stairwell, but maybe this was pervading from outside as the door is not a well fitting one, because as we further ascended the smell went, and once in our room it was fine. Very clean. Comfy bed. Think there must be a problem with the plumbing though as the hot tap water wasn’t just hot it was scorching - very dangerous - and the cold tap ran warm, not cold. The shower was fine. We often find there aren’t enough mirrors in holiday accommodation. This had plenty, however, the lighting was very poor so would suggest perhaps installing lights over a couple mirrors in order to make good use of them! Others have complained about noise, but for our stay, it was quiet although there were a couple sets earblocks on the bedside table! Thankfully we didn’t need to use them! Didn’t eat or drink here other than the included breakfast which was delicious both mornings. Compliments to the chefs. Don’t know why this accommodation has been given AA 4*. It was fine but not really worth what we paid.

Good central location within easy walking distance of shops, attractions and railway station. The room was clean with all the facilities needed for our stay. The staff were friendly and the bar and restaurant had a nice atmosphere. The included breakfast was very nice. Would not hesitate to stay again.

The room was to the front of a very busy street. Very noisy, no double glazing. Very very loud music played till midnight. Could hear every word. Very noisy drunk people singing for ages outside.

Defo stay again very clean hotel

Everything was perfect great place good vibe excellent staff would stay there again !

Excellent little boutique hotel. Stayed a few times now in different rooms and have loved them all. Tastefully decorated and always clean. The breakfast menu is full of locally sourced food and very tasty with generous portions. The staff are always welcoming and friendly.

The staff were amazing nothing was to much trouble, we requested a quieter room due to it being a Saturday night and was put on the 2nd floor. The restaurant food was lovely, this is such a lovely place to stay in Shrewsbury very central would definitely stay here again in the summer

I stayed for two nights in the lovely Darwin room. It was spotlessly clean, comfortable and cosy, with everything I needed (hair dryer, iron and ironing board, tea and coffee making facilities, fresh water, toiletries). Breakfast in the mornings was fantastic! Chosen from a menu and freshly made to order it was high quality and non greasy. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The Loopy Shrew is in the heart of charming Shrewsbury and just a short ten minute walk from the station so easily accessed from there and very easy to find. The staff were very pleasant and helpful throughout. There were lots of leaflets and information on things to do and places to see during your stay. A great base from which to explore the town and surrounding area. I highly recommend.

Lovely clean great breakfast

Super little boutique hotel, this was our second stay and we hope to stay again. The hotel is in a great position close to the award winning market and the town. Lots of interesting eating and drinking venues close by and lovely walks along the Severn River. The food at the Loopy Shrew is excellent as is the service.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, staff excellent, room very clean. Great location and although no parking on site, there was cheap long stay parking nearby. Its an old building, so one must allow for that. As its a bar/restaurant the music was loud till midnight but that did not bother us. Cocktails were great and reasonably priced.

Last minute booking after a long day, and the staff was friendly and accommodating even as I arrived as the cafe/bar was exploding into action.

Perfect!

Lovely hotel,great location and really nice breakfast. Just be aware loud DJ until 12 Friday and Saturday,if you want an early night.

Great Value with breakfast included. Clean Room. Great, buzzing atmosphere on Saturday night. Nice spot for a weekender. Will return when next in Shrewsbury

Friendly service excellent night's sleep. No noise from the bar. Great room with outside sitting space. Shower powerful and hot. Breakfast great choices excellent fresh coffee and fresh orange juice. Would highly recommend and stay again 10/10. Thank you.

Had one night in a single on B&B basis while visiting family for a night out. Building is a pub in an old building with the upper rooms converted to accommodation. Although the room was small it was a masterpiece of how to use space and did. Not feel cramped in any way. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. With the property being on a main thoroughfare and a very busy pub a nice touch was the provision of earplugs. Breakfast was served in a restaurant area at the back of the pub. Unlike most hotel breakfasts you choose from a menu and it’s cooked fresh for you and was top quality. Staff were lovely, but a note of caution for nervous types there are no staff on site overnight, but a telephone number is provided in case of emergency. There is no onsite parking, but a public car park is available across the road. I travelled by train and the station is 10 minutes walk.

Very Satisfied , food is fantastic, good portions and good choice ,hotel staff went the extra mile to make sure I totally enjoyed my stay, The Loopy Shrew is well situated in Shrewsbury Town ,for me I will continue to make my stay at The Loopy Shrew as and when I visit Shrewsbury and would reccomend it to any one who visits .

Very comfortable, great location,excellent service.

Excellent staff. Great location Clean and tidy bedroom
