The location of Albright Hussey Manor Hotel is ideal as a base for visiting Shrewsbury and the local area. It's very close to one of the park and ride facilities. The beautiful scenery around the hotel and the fact that it is set back about half a mile from the A528 as well as the impressive historic buildings that form part of the hotel, make this an idyllic and peaceful spot. The grounds are beautiful, enhanced by the residence of a pair of black swans on the moat-like pond in front of the ancient buildings. There is a lawn, complete with open-sided marquee, and accessories ready and waiting for wedding parties. Our accommodation, set in a (1980's?) Block was disappointing in that it was feeling a little tired, still in 1980s mode. An attempt had been made to update with new curtains and scatter cushions. Traditional bedroom furniture was quality made and well cared for. The tea and coffee making facilities were adequate although located in thenwardrobe where it was difficult to get sufficient light to see what one was doing. Although understandable, due to Covid, it was disappointing that room service was not offered and that we weren't advised of this fact on arrival, nor how we might obtain replacement supplies. For the same reason, and staff shortages, there was no breakfast or dinner available during our stay; again, disappointing but that meant we were able to explore other alternatives in the area.
