Give the Shakespeare Inn a visit..
Simple straight forward, pick up keys and enjoy the area. The pub offer some tasty choices and Apple desert ticks the box. Room was large without being too big and with windows front and back plenty of natural light. Heating was just right with an additional portable heater if needed, but didn't need it. They also provide an Iron and Ironing board which is a nice touch. My one niggle was there is no heating in the bathroom, as the weather was mild it's not an issue but come November it might, a heated towel rail would be just enough to take the chill off when then time comes. Out back there is a small play area with swing, seesaw and roundabout (which I had a go to test) Otherwise a very nice setup.

Great room. Very clean. Had what I wanted in a room. However, for those who are not good at going up steps this is not the property for you, as one has to climb up quite steep outside steps to reach at least two rooms. The fridge in my room was very noisy.

Nice quiet hotel down a country lane. Lots of parking, but was hard to find a space on a Friday night. Luckily someone moved so we were able to park. Room was a nice size with en suite. Tea making facilities were provided. Access to room was to rear of pub off the gardens so didn't have to walk through pub. No breakfast on site so had to find a local place. Evening meal was good

The room and its facilities were adequate but rather disappointed to find the restaurant and bar were closed on the two days we were there. No welcome on arrival, just an email saying where to find the key.

Lovely little place
Staff really friendly and helpful. Room was spacious, clean and well equipped. The walls are very thin though and it was a little noisy while the pub was open but as soon as the bar closed it was very peaceful. We did hear our neighbour showering at 6am though so worth noting if you are a light sleeper. Wasnt an issue for us. Accommodation was perfect for our short stay.

Not the best check-in, but a comfortable stay
Check in was at a busy bar, and the first person I spoke to told me that someone else would deal with my check-in. So, I was left standing there with my bags with other customers trying to get past me to order drinks - until somebody else turned up. The room was on a terrace next to a children's play area, so it was noisy until the pub part closed. Still, the room was cosy enough. I was told that, when checking out, I could ask the staff present the following morning for an invoice. But, there was nobody there. The place was all locked up. They did however sort me out with an invoice very quickly by email later that day.

overnight stay for a local event
Stayed with my husband for an event locally, so one of the nearest hotels to Madeley. Pretty pub which gets quite busy. We stayed in a fab room at the front overlooking the road. We didn't hear any noise though. Quite a large room with tea making facilities/biscuits. Good bed size probably, king, not as comfy as some I've stayed in but ok. Good sized bathroom with separate shower. The pub serves food and we ordered bbq ribs, they did state as we'd not booked a table we would have to eat outside, however, in the end we were able to eat inside the pub. Basic pub grub, but presently nicely. Friendly place, but note that the rooms are at the back of the pub and you have to negotiate a number of steps at the side to enter and exit. Well lit up in the dark, when we got back but unsuitable for the infirm or wheelchair users. You can go through the pub when its open though if you choose too. Ok for us but wouldn't suit everyone, and great if you wanted to tour the local area.

Room was comfortable. Plenty of coffee/tea etc and a handy little fridge too. Shame the pub wasn't open but it's a nice walk to their other pub The Half Moon and the food there was lovely.
