What a gem! The hotel offers stunning rooms with a perfect view of the bridge and a touch of history with the four-poster bed directly overlooking the iron bridge. The service from the friendliest and most welcoming staff, especially Mark, Gemma, and Janet, was impeccable. The hotel's ideal location for exploring Ironbridge and surroundings makes it a top choice. The dining experience, while tasty, had its drawbacks. Overall, a great stay with a few minor hiccups.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was amazing, overlooking the historic Ironbridge and offering easy access to shops and eateries. However, the noise from outside, the moldy smell in the room, and some height-related issues detracted from the overall stay.

Rooms

5.0

The room, although noisy due to street traffic and revelers, was just about adequate. However, the noticeable smell of mold was off-putting.

Service

7.0

The only polite member of staff was friendly, helpful, and even shared some comical anecdotes during a late-night chat. Their service stood out positively.

Location

9.0

The hotel's location was unbeatable, right in the heart of Ironbridge with easy access to museums, shops, and restaurants. However, being less than 6ft tall might pose some challenges in certain areas.

Dining

6.0

The breakfast, although served by a nice waitress and including a variety of items like a full English, was marred by overcooked eggs and the suggestion to serve on warmer plates.

Facilities

7.0

The value for money must match the services provided.
