M44***48:“The Iron Bridge is the first iron bridge on the River Severn. Due to the limited metallurgical technology at the time, the entire bridge was made of gray cast iron. There was no steelmaking technology at the time, and gray cast iron was relatively brittle, so now the bridge is only used for viewing. At present, vehicles are prohibited from passing on the bridge, but pedestrians can pass through, which is worth a visit.

噼里啪啦:“[Value for money] A public park in a small British town, very good. Come and play with the cows and deer for free.
[Scenery] The river is very clear and the air is very good.
[Fun] It is very comfortable to walk around and experience the culture and life atmosphere of a British town.”
Guest User:“The room was very clean and comfortable. The service was excellent—staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a small selection, but everything was delicious!”
Reedi:“We booked for the Shrewsbury School speech day and leavers ball so the whole town was fully booked. Thankfully there was a suite available at my favourite local hotel. We needed a room for 3 and the hotel staff were super helpful in accommodating our needs. It’s family owned and the culture of care is pervasive. It’s a hotel where the staff like to say yes. Not to mention the character of the hotel itself. It’s a mixture of 12th, 15th and 17th century architecture forming an elaborate maze of rooms covering the block. The Matthews family have truly created a 5 star hotel experience. I was even offered a glass of sherry by the night watchman when I checked in on once at 1am. I cannot recommend this hotel enough.”
Guest User:“Amazing hotel witg super friendly staff who went over and above! Breakfas was incredible and considering the room rate an absolute deal.
Thank you everyone there. I will be back for the history of the place alone!”
RowanHoens:“I booked 4 nights bed and breakfast, they were renovating the kitchen the 1st two days so there was no breakfast, these things happen but they also did not try to make it right once. Don’t seem very guest focused at all.”
Guest User:“We asked for a quiet room and were given one at the front on the main road which was anything but quiet, the room did not live up to the pictures and needed some work, but it was reasonably priced and servicable. We didn't eat here but our drinks on the first night was almost £12 for a large gin and a pint, that was with a 10% discount as we were staying there.
The cons were not enough to warrant a complaint but we wouldn't book here again”
