Set above the pub in an old building, with narrow corridors, in the centre of Shrewsbury. I guess good old British accommodation, quite clean and recently refurbished (although very very small) bathroom. I was there on Monday night so no problem with the noise. Parking on the street by 8AM free or at the station parking round the corner. Definitely... More

Knew there was going to be music on didnt know it was going to be drum and base. I already mentioned to the girl at the bar and she said I wouldn't hear it! At times it shook the windows and we was on top floor! Usually we would have been downstairs making the most of our childless weekend but... More

Stayed for one night after an evening at the Shrewsbury Beer Festival. It was perfect for what we wanted, a bed for night at not too great a cost. We paid £45. The Vaults is virtually nextdoor to the railway station and a very short walk to the centre of town. We travelled by car and parked in the railway... More

We knew the hotel was over a lively pub, which didnt bother us, but the room was very cold, we asked if the heating was going to come on and was told there was an electric heater in the room, but there wasnt, my husband went to the floor above and found one on the landing. Paying £56, we would... More

What a great place this is!! I needed to come to Shrewsbury for an interview in September, when I found out how pretty the town was I stayed another night. The hotel had everything I needed, bed, tv, bathroom and a dining table. The room was basic compared to other places I have been, but you get what you pay... More

A great central location, it was really easy to for us to go out in Shrewsbury. I was concerned about it being above a pub, but when we returned around 10 on a Tuesday, the pub was all locked up and it was really quite along the entire street. The big issue was he shower the next morning which was... More

Stayed two nights at the weekend when the Vaults was having "music" playing till 2am . But all went quiet at midnight and a good sleep was had on both nights. No breakfast provided here but easily available across the road and in the Town. Situated next to the Shrewsbury rail station and near the bus station it is a... More
