The room was fine but let down by the poor shower. Staff were exceptional, breakfasts very good. No restaurant facilities for lunch or evening meals. Hot snacks were available. The staff made it an enjoyable experience.

Charming, comfortable and clearly not part of a chain. Pleasant decor, in keeping with the age of the house which is early nineteenth century, with interesting features such as the staircase and the portico at the front. Lovely staff especially Natalie. Excellent breakfast.

Lovely Staff

Very friendly staff, lovely building, albeit as expected from an older style building, is a little tired. On saying that everything works, room spacious and a lovely location. Can't fault for price.

A lovely place to stay

Stayed one night here and it was lovely. The building is beautifully decorated and is clearly looked after by the owners. Our room was bright and decorated in keeping with the age of the building. We had a drink in the bar and sat in the living area which was very nice. Breakfast the next morning was freshly cooked and plentiful. The staff are lovely and would definitely stay again if we were back in the area.

Really nice place to stay, the room I had was also huge. The service was very friendly and efficient, and the breakfast was probably the best hotel breakfast I’ve ever had.

We had an amazing stay at The Old rectory. The staff were so friendly on arrival. I had to leave for a meet up before breakfast was due to start, and so they made me a breakfast sandwich to take with me so that I didn't miss out. It was really exceptional service. The bedroom was cosy and was perfect for our needs. The only downside was that the floorboards creaked loudly whenever we walked around the room, and the bathroom/shower could do with updating. Otherwise I would highly recommend the old rectory for anyone staying in Wem.
