    Can’t think of anything.

    Our room was bright and airy, clean and comfortable. Plenty of tea, coffee biscuits supplied, all good. Would definitely recommend. Breakfast very enjoyable. We ate in the restaurant in the evening. The meal was excellent, the service and the staff very attentive very friendly and professional. Plenty of on site parking is a bonus.

    The rooms were very hot. I turned the radiator in the bedroom off and opened the window's but there is a large kitchen below, I believe. The restaurant was hot also. The staff are lovely, but we were asked several times if we would like a dessert. We just wanted a little rest and even when mentioning to the waitress that we would let them know. They continued to ask. They were still serving food so I wasn't sure what the great rush was.

    Our room was large and comfortable. We ate on the first night in the bar. The food was hot, plentiful and reasonably priced. There was a hearty breakfast on offer. The Down Inn is located a short distance outside of Bridgnorth and is a great base for exploring the local area. We would definitely stay again and recommend.

    No serious issues, very squeaky floor boards but they did not affect my stay.

    The Down Inn has a very friendly atmosphere and is very popular for its Carvery and Restaurant, the menu is varied and the portions are plentiful. The room was spacious and clean with all the required facilities, tea, coffee, biscuits and also soap, shampoo. Easy access from the spacious car park. A good and varied selection at breakfast all freshly prepared.

    Stayed here overnight last night ,we were early to book in but that was not a problem for the management who arranged for our room to be made up 1st we said we would have a drink while we waited . They were fully booked for food but we were offered a table that was going to be passed by with customers queuing for the carvery we said we did not mind as they were doing us a favour . We sat down to one of the best carvery’s I’ve had it was hot & the food was fabulous quality & so much choice and the portions were massive it set us up for the day . After a drink at the bar we were shown to our room , lovely & warm well laid out so spacious the bathroom had bath & shower with added extras of toiletries the bed was amazing & comfortable great night sleep . We had breakfast a great choice & again the best ingredients high quality cooked to perfection . The staff were amazing friendly & well organised helpful & polite all round a fab stay 100% worth every penny thank you so much & keep up the good work we will be back 🙏❤️

    Our only gripe on this visit was the shower (shower over bath). Whilst the shower delivered water, we were unable to adjust the height or control the direction of the shower head and resorted to holding the shower head. The bath was slippery once wet and could benefit from some stick on anti slip pads but then anyone taking a bath would have their backside pull in different directions by these pads so maybe a anti slip mat would help.

    An older building with modern extensions. Multi room dinning area with easy access to the bedrooms via a staircase. Small parking area to one side and a large parking area to the rear with easy access to the bedrooms via an external stairway. The whole building feels comfortable and seems to flow from one area to another. Staff are great and attentive.

    Nothing I can think of

    We were very impressed with our whole stay at The Down. It was a last minute booking and we were very pleased to find such a comfortable, welcoming place after a long journey. The facilities were exactly as advertised with a good bathroom, a comfy bed and a much appreciated hospitality tray.The staff were friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Our evening meal was tasty and well cooked with a good selection to choose from and very well priced. The same applies to the breakfast which was included in the price of the room, making our stay not only restful but also exceptionally good value for money.
