Staff were very attentive and the we couldn’t fault breakfast at all. There were some dirty bits in our room such as a few stains on the carpets and some dead flies at the bottom of the curtains however the building as a whole was lovely. We had a wonderful view of the gardens and the location was great. Would definitely stay again.

Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Really nice Grade 2 listed former Rectory with a lot of history and character. This hotel sits in its own quiet secluded grounds of around 4 acres (i believe) and is a short walk from the centre of Wem. The hotel was reasonably priced and my stay included a decent breakfast. However, the real strength of this hotel is the excellent staff, who were so pleasant and helpful and always greeted you with a nice smile. It goes without saying that I would definitely stay here again if I was in the area.

Hotel was wonderful. A lot of period features still in tact. Beautiful gardens & location. Bedroom & bathroom showing sighns of wear but still in keeping with the property. Bed was very creaky but comfy. Room was clean. Staff were amazing & very helpful. Had a late afternoon snack in the conservatory & it was delicious. Breakfast was plentiful & also fresh & delicious. Bar was well stocked. Only downside was no lift so my elderly parents struggled slightly getting up & down the stairs.
