Gaskell Arms  

Excellent location in a very historical town with lots to see and visit.There are interesting individual shops and lots of variety of walks of varying length from the town itself. The surrounding countryside is superb and somewhat undiscovered. The quality of the food was excellent.Local produce,fresh tasty vegetables and super breakfasts were served by very helpful staff. Food could be eaten in the restaurant or the Lounge Bar. The Lounge Bar prices were less expensive. The room was very comfortable and well serviced.

The water temperature of the electric shower was rather inconsistent. It did improve after we reported this problem.

The breakfast was excellent - we didn't have dinner there.The bedroom was large and reasonably well appointed and comfortable.

The reception we received from the person who booked us in/ took us to our room was not welcoming and barely communicated with us. The person at breakfast was pleasant as were the cleaning staff. I suppose my view is that this hotel is a little tired and dated so I could not recommend in its present state.

The hotel was comfortable without being luxurious with good beer and food. The bar and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful. We were a group of friends on a walking weekend and would recommend this as an excellent place to stay for a walking holiday

Slightly tired decor

Comfortable and friendly - excellent breakfast - suprised we were the only people staying there. Room a good size

Furnishings and decor a bit dated - and every wall seemed to have a picture, bit cluttered, - but nevertheless we were very comfortable,

The location, the comfortand convenience of the location.

A traditional country inn in a delightful village setting. A real sense of family ownership far removed from the bland, characterless group- owned pubs that litter the countryside. A warm and welcoming atmosphere in the lounge and public bar areas. Friendly, efficient staff. Excellent food and service. Easy parking. Good location.

Not much not very impressed.

Very small room. Bathroom small and basic. Certainly not woth the money. Internet site looks better than hotel.

The friendly staff and the cooked breakfast. The room was pleasant.

The small shower room. The occasional unpleasant drain smells in the corridor.

Comfortable friendly hotel with good access to countryside for walking.

On a busy crossroad so there was a bit of traffic noise first thing in the morning. May be better in rooms at the back of the hotel.

Friendliness of staff. Excellent food. Accessibility to Ironbridge Museums and surrounding area.

We had three rooms the third of which wasn't as pleasant as the other two.

Gaskell arms is a very friendly, comfortable hotel. All the facilities are exceptionally clean. The food was well presented and cooked to a high standard. Everyone was made to feel very welcome by all members of the staff, and yes I would willingly go there again.

There is nothing to complain or dislike about Gaskell Arms.

We booked this hotel due to its location near Wenlock Edge where we were attending a storytelling festival. The staff were very friendly and attentive but at our request did not disturb us in our room as my husband was severely jet lagged on the Saturday after a trip to USA. The evening meal and breakfast was lovely. We stayed in the Mews accommodation (I had originally booked the Rindleford suite but we were moved to larger accommodation) which we can highly recommend. There is also a quiet relaxing garden in the hotel grounds. A lovely place to spend a weekend.

I suppose we would prefer a duvet rather than sheets and blankets but the bed was comfortable and it certainly is not a complaint!
