Holiday Inn Express Shrewsbury, An Ihg Hotel

“A wonderful stay for the whole week at The Holiday Inn in Shrewsbury.”

I had the pleasure of staying at this particular hotel from Monday 11th November for four nights. This IHG hotel is positioned within what looks like an industrial park/estate.

I had the pleasure of staying at this particular hotel from Monday 11th November for four nights. This IHG hotel is positioned within what looks like an industrial park/estate. However it’s not what I would describe as an industrial estate, the estate contains a lot of office blocks and not distribution centres. There are no big trucks rattling passed your window all night, it’s very very quiet, even with the A5 positioned a few thousand metres away you don’t hear a thing, there is a car park, however it’s not operated by IHG. It’s operated by a private company, register your car or vehicle at reception just the once and then came and go as many times as you like. Shrewsbury is approximately 2 and a half miles away, it’s a beautiful British town, it’s full of history and well worth a visit. Reference the hotel, it was refurbished in 2022 apparently, well the refurbishment still looks fresh today. The rooms are fresh, clean and very comfortable, well maintained by an excellent team of staff. The staff are amazing, so kind, polite and attentive. Nothing is too much trouble. A very special mention to Jermaine, management of IHG listen up! In Jermaine you have a diamond. That lovely young man is tailor made for the hospitality industry, look after him and don’t let him leave the IHG for one of your rivals. Breakfast is absolutely lovely, hot and fresh and plenty of it. Fruit juice, coffee, tea, toast, cereal and pastry’s all available. I was away from the hotel during the day working in Telford so I didn’t see what the hotel done for lunch or the activity. The evening was lovely, there is a limited menu for the evening diners. There is a a pub called The Bell in a place called Cross Houses, it’s roughly three miles away, i liked the food in there, chip shop also in Cross Houses. Failing that, order some food in , I ordered a curry one particular evening and sat and ate it in the dining room. I thoroughly enjoyed my week in The Holiday Inn at Shrewsbury and when I revisit Telford again for work purposes I will most definitely be going back to the Holiday Inn to stay, it’s roughly twelve away from where I was working in Telford, roughly a 20 minute drive from Telford to the above hotel.
