"Excellent location for visiting Ludlow. Near shops, pubs and the castle. Welcoming friendly staff. Good breakfast though would have appreciated some fresh fruit on offer. Had dinner one night in the restaurant- food and service good. Room clean, beds comfortable. Our room had a balcony which was good except at night as opening the sliding door was the only way to get any fresh air into the room therefore making it extremely hot. Didn’t feel we could leave the door ajar as there was a staircase next to us leading into the carpark therefore felt it was a security risk. Overall though a good stay, would recommend, but don’t choose a room with a balcony!"

"Great place to stay. Lovely, peaceful location with a tasty breakfast. We were in room 2, it was a nice big room but I feel it was overpriced for what it is. There were 3 big stains on the carpet, broken light switch near the bed, pillows were lumpy and I felt it just needed a good deep clean/freshen up. For almost £200 I was a little disappointed. Wouldn’t put me off staying again as we loved the location and only a 10 minute walk into town."

"The room was basic but clean and functional for a short stay. It had everything we needed and good for the price. We had a twin room and one of the beds was hard and felt like an old budget mattress whilst the other bed had a comfy spring mattress. Good selection of tea and coffee. Check-in times were quite restrictive and made us plan our day around a set check-in time. It's very close to the centre and within easy walking distance. The room was hot at night but the fan somewhat helped. Overall a pleasant stay for a budget room."

For those in search of distinctive accommodation, boutique hotels often provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book through Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we can suggest alternative dates that might be more affordable, increasing the likelihood that you could save.
  4. Consider your location: Opting for accommodation near key attractions or city centres may offer convenience, but it often comes with a steeper price tag. For more budget-friendly options, you might want to consider hotels in less central areas or neighbourhoods, striking a balance between cost and accessibility to the sites you intend to visit. You could also look into independent hotels situated further out, which are usually more likely to be affordable and can provide a more authentic experience.
