Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in the center of Ironbridge, making it convenient for exploring the area. The rooms have a lovely layout and decor, but some may lack heating in the bathrooms. The service was friendly, although there were delays in addressing concerns. The location is central, near the river, but there were challenges in getting proper receipts for business purposes. Dining options were satisfactory, with salads being a highlight. Overall, a pleasant stay with some minor inconveniences.
The hotel's location alongside the river was amazing during the daytime, offering a peaceful ambiance. The room with its own garden was a unique and pleasant feature. However, the service, while polite, could improve in terms of communication. The dining experience was average, with room for enhancement in the selection and presentation of dishes.
