I would thoroughly recommend Darwin’s Townhouse, a lovely place to stay in a lovely town.

I have stayed at this property on a previous occasion and will stay with them again. Friendly and helpful staff. Good location both for the centre of Shrewsbury and also for the river. Handy parking nearby. Clean and comfortable, good value for money. The breakfast was lovely. Overall a good place to stay.

The person that I travelled with did not sleep well she said she was too hot. I personally found it to be fine. I have absolutely no complaints. My friend also mentioned that she likes cotton sheets, again this did not bother me in the slightest.

A beautiful hotel in a perfect location. Great value for money.

Excellent location, rooms were clean and comfy. Very good breakfast, lots of choice and very tasty.

Noise from the room above disrupted our sleep a little. Very creaky floorboards when people were walking around in their room kept us awake.

Shrewsbury is a unique town and well worth a visit

Location, decor , staff and great breakfast

The only parking is a local car park and it was expensive and probably the only down part of our trip to Shrewsbury ...we were told we could pay for the next days parking when we were leaving

Great hotel, location and staff.

Great building, lovely room, fantastic location and the breakfast was delicious. Car park just round the corner.

The mattress was a little bit uncomfortable, it dipped on one side. Maybe time for a new one. Didn’t stop us sleeping though.

Bed and breakfast? Great breakfast but absolutely no sleep

Stayed in number 14 with garden view, unfortunately the people or person above us were extremely bad mannered! Noisy all through the night, bagging and crashing! And to top it in between the awful noise there was horrendous snoring!

Great stay!!

We were made very welcome on arrival with a map of Shrewsbury and lots of recommendations. Our room was outside but it was part of the main building and was a great room. Small details like plenty of sockets (near mirrors etc) Coffee teas were excellent quality, and the hand soap/hand moisurisers smelt delicious. Breakfast was amazing, we don't eat meat so always a bit concerned about breakfasts but there was lots of choice for pescatarians/vegan etc All in all a great stay and would highly recommend.

Beautiful hotel, lovely clean rooms and a fabulous breakfast.

The whole hotel is very nicely decorated and very clean. The room was well laid out. Two comfy twin beds, tea/coffee facilities, and a nice bathroom with lovely toiletries. The room was spotless and as it was at the end of the hallway was also very quiet. There was a bottle of water by the bed which was a nice touch. The honesty bar is a really lovely idea, and it was nice to sit with other guests when we came in. Breakfast was fantastic, lots of options including gluten free. The breakfast room is light and airy, a very enjoyable atmosphere. The staff throughout our stay were friendly, helpful and very pleasant.

Nothing not to like!

Lovely staff, comfy room, value for money and would definately stay again.

The room was clean and comfy, and a blanket and bowl for the dog. Breakfast the next morning more than made up for my lack of sleep (see “what did’nt you like below) with a vast array of goodies and the cooked breakfast was 1st class! Would definately stay again as the staff were so lovely and made you feel very welcome……

The lights at night, very difficult to sleep with so many “lights” in the room…..2 x green fire exit lights, 1 x blue light for heating, and then the strret lights to contend with ( maybe replace the window dressings with blackout blinds, one that covers the whole door)…..hence lack of sleep as stated above!

Very comfortable

This was the second time we had stayed at this property and once again we were not disappointed. We upgraded our room to a super king and it was well worth the extra cost. The staff were most welcoming and efficient. The room itself was very comfortable and very clean. Breakfast has a good choice and the cooked breakfast was excellent. The location is very good and central with a very good car park a few minutes walk away.

Overall a very good place to visit Shrewsbury.

Not as luxurious as we thought it would be for the price.

Great location for central Shrewsbury.

Disappointed that we could not have a full breakfast Christmas morning as staff given the day off. Replacement tray was good, however no room to eat properly at a table. Sat on the bed to eat. Would have enjoyed a special breakfast for Christmas Day.

Would definitely stay here again. Great central location and car park is right around the corner.

The quality of the bed and furnishings and bathroom in the room were good. The TV wasn't exceptional so I watched stuff on my laptop instead. The warmth of the room was lovely, helped that it was quite a small room. Breakfasts was very good, my highlight.

As it is an old building, the window to my room did not insulate outside sound that well but I had a decent sleep. The shower had a limited number of settings but it did the job.

Lovely and clean, great staff, every fixture and fitting of a high quality.

The area of our room (12) where the coffee was could have benefited from an extra light. Coffee in the room was good though.

Quirky family-run hotel - both welcoming and with a great breakfast spread

The staff were very friendly. The breakfast was great with a lot of choice. The hotel is decorated with ornaments and maps related to Charles Darwin's explorations and discoveries, which gives it a quirky character. Even the tea and coffee-making facilities included a great variety with delicious biscuits. The location is handy, just a short walk from the railway station.

The room was a bit smaller than it appeared online, but fine for a short stay.

Amazing place, more than a B&B

Such a lovely B&B, but much much more. From arriving to a wonderful welcome, to the amazing breakfast (best I’ve had by a long shot) & hubby agreed. Stayed in a garden room, not huge but everything we needed in there.
