Excellent value for money with great value food and friendly staff. Very old building with steep internal access stairs so could be difficult for less mobile client. To be fair to hotel this and possibility of noise from music nights are clearly highlighted in confirmation email. Overall well worth a stay if you don’t mind an old building converted as well as it can be while retaining authentic features. A good place to base yourself for a few days.

The rooms are in an annexe to the pub. 24 hour access to the rooms with a key to that areas. Stairs are quite steep but there's not too many of them. The room was spacious and with central heating that worked. Also there was a small mobile heater and a fan. Only issue was the shower was small and the temperature of the water was impossible to get right. The English Breakfast tasted good, made to order, though the sausage was small. The service was very pleasant. All in all a good value stay and the location was a bonus, near the centre of town. Less than ten minutes from the railway station.

We were advised by the hotel in advance that the pub was a busy town centre one, and noisy, but there was nowhere else available to stay. Live music blasting through the floor and walls until finally stopped at midnight. Bathroom taps loose, one not working and toilet seat fixed by one hinge. We'll put up with most things at our age, but at nearly £190 for 2 nights, a few criticisms need pointing out

Our stay was fine. Bed was very unconformable and the band played on until 1am which is unreasonable when you have guests staying upstairs. 11pm would have been fine but past that surely is unacceptable. Breakfast was lovely and staff were nice enough.

Very good value stay £70 room including 2 breakfasts'! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Only slight downside is the noise if there is live music in the pub, but this wrapped up around midnight for us and closing the window made it barely audible to no big issue.

Really enjoyed my one-night stay here for business this week. Room 6 is an en-suite at the bottom of the stairs. The room was small but very comfortable, lots of storage space. It does need a lick of paint and the bathroom ceiling needs re-plastering but it was perfectly clean. Gorgeous home cooked breakfast and friendly staff at check in and check out.

I had booked this room mainly because it had a bath, which I never got to use because the water was cold every day. I reported it on day one and nothing was done about it. I just had to have quick, cold showers each day. Awful. The bathroom was disgusting. Urine stains on the toilet seat, which was also loose and would swivel around leaving you sitting on the porcelain. The taps were also loose and you had to hold them at the base to prevent them also swivelling around. The room was noisy, partly from the live music and functions at the venue, but mainly from the other guests. My room was near the entrance to the main accommodation, so there was a lot of door slamming and creaking floorboards. I didn't get much sleep during my entire stay. The bed was something that a charity shop would reject. Without doubt the worst bed I have ever experienced in any accommodation, including backpackers. The only good things about this place were the breakfast and its central location.

Stayed on hotest day of year so far and room was sweltering due to 2 hot water pipes running length of the room.(radiator fortunately off). Despite the heat from these pipes there was virtually no hot water and was unable to take a shower. Sorry no photos attached, coudnt do it from my phone...

We booked en suite bathroom. Bathroom was private,but separate from room, along corridor and up 3 steps. As elderly couple difficult at night. Placed on top floor, no lift, no one to carry luggage. Breakfast was supposed to be included, but on arrival, we were informed that it would only be served at 9. We requested, just sandwich, were refused. Asked again the next day and were allowed a sandwich. We still felt badly treated from attitude of staff on first night.

Parking in the Center of Shrewsbury is a nightmare. The hotel doesn't have parking so you have to pay to park which can run from 1 to 3 pounds an hour. The breakfast was very good and the room was OK and quiet but wifi didn't work being too far away from the restaurant/bar. The staff were friendly and helpful but overall the place was not as good as other places we've stayed.

Clean, warm, good shower, nice toiletries, excellent cooked breakfast and friendly, helpful staff. The location was perfect too; smack - bang in the town centre, which meant that everything was accessible to us on foot. We really enjoyed our stay at The Old Post Office, and would stay there again.

Room and bed very comfortable. Worth saying that they did send a message about being above a noisy pub, so fair enough on that point. Would be better to have the limited times of breakfast in the booking info.

Excellent cooked breakfast. Nice quiet location. They do have band on at the weekend but not a problem on the second floor. Very helpful staff. No parking nearby but that's the same for type accommodation the town centre.

We booked en suite bathroom. Bathroom was private,but separate from room, along corridor and up 3 steps. As elderly couple difficult at night. Placed on top floor, no lift, no one to carry luggage. Breakfast was supposed to be included, but on arrival, we were informed that it would only be served at 9. We requested, just sandwich, were refused. Asked again the next day and were allowed a sandwich. We still felt badly treated from attitude of staff on first night.

A hidden gem! With character. Excellent value for money. Very spacious room (Room 3). Friendly, no fuss staff. We joined in with the locals in the quiz on Wednesday evening - great fun. Had the 2 for £20 meal deal - good belly pork. Nice real ale - Wainwrights. Good breakfast. Central location, 10 minutes walk from railway station.

Bar staff friendly, plenty of choices. The room was clean but the only problem was the pillows, not at all comfortable, the bed was slightly hard but acceptable. Breakfast was very good and staff very friendly.

Outstanding hospitality from all the staff. Extremely friendly and helpful. The pub food is exceptional and good value for money. It’s a lively place (regularly features bands) with a great atmosphere. Go there and enjoy it!
