We have just spent a very enjoyable weekend with friends at the Albright Hussey Manor. The setting is lovely. The meals and wine were excellent. The service was spot on... nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Some of our rooms (in the newer wing) could have been of a higher standard but all in all we had a memorable and very pleasant break.

We went on a Travelzoo offer which included 1 night's accommodation and an 8 course meal. We couldn't fault the staff, service, food and accommodation - the manager's good humour created a lovely atmosphere. Will definitely be returning.

What a lovely place to stay. We cannot speak highly enough of the staff at this lovely old Manor House. Nothing was too much trouble. The room we stayed in was well presented, good bedding and towels, nice complimentary toiletries. Excellent Sunday lunch, probably one of the best we have ever had out and the breakfast was also very good. The grounds are a delight, very peaceful place to stay. Would definately stay again.

Stayed for 3 nights in this hotel. Everything ok, the only downside was that there is no fridge in the room. The rest (near) to perfect. Was on the upper floor with nice views. Gardens very well maintained.
Certainly a place to go back to.

Excellent service and very attentive staff. I would give the Albright Hussey ten out of ten.

Amazing. I had a lovely time and the staff could not do enough to help. I would recommend the Albright Hussey Manor Hotel to anyone who will listen! Many thanks.

We found the service particularly helpful, especially one lunch time when we had 14 people for a celebration. The staff are friendly, efficient and very helpful. We look forward to returning.

What a fantastic stay! We were given an upper floor room overlooking the grounds. The floors were uneven, the boards creaked and we couldn't have been happier! We did the tasting menu for dinner and the food was amazing! After dinner we sat in the parlor area and enjoyed late night libations with other people staying at the hotel. The staff was great and attentive. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!!!

Stayed here on business trip and couldn't have been looked after any better by the manager, Malcolm. Food was delicious especially the lemon soufflé. Maybe expensive but you pay for what you get. Fantastic stay will definitely returning here. Thanks Malcolm.

I stayed over for a friends wedding , the service was excellent , but there were wasps nests on the front walls for everyone to see , and for the entire time we were all fighting off the little stingers , and I have been told they are still there 2 weeks later , I unfortunately got ill in the early hours of Saturday morning , and my husband went to the reception and rang all the numbers and no one came or answered , the place was deserted even though it states 24 hr reception , the hotel was delightful and the staff when about were lovely , but please sort your wasps out before someone gets hurt badly

We had our wedding here in November 2012 and were really happy with the choice.

There are a limited number of places to choose from in the area that are able to cater for over 100 without being too much like conference centres. We chose this place because the staff seemed willing to listen to what we wanted, rather than tell us what they thoguhtwe wanted.

The night before, my bridesmaids and I had a room which was cosy but comfortable (normally a twin, but with an extra bed added) and breakfast was lovely.

The actual day itself was great, the staff did a lot of behind-the-scenes stuff I hadn't even considered. They really are experts. I was escorted to see the registrar by the manager, who calmed me down even though we were late because my dress had just broken and we were running a bit late because of needing to do an emergency repair job. The room was set out just as I had asked it to be, and it lends itself to any colour scheme because it has cream drapes on the walls and ceiling, so out green colour scheme with white flowers looked great.

The only thing wrong was I had organised the day to be evening-wear dress code, so we had the wedding as late as possible while still having just enough light for a few big photos outside. However, the mulled cyder (specific brand I wanted, which they were very accomodating in sourcing for us), was served just as we walked out of the ceremony, instead of guests being ushered outside and then offered their drinks as they came back in. I think that may have been my fault (I'm not sure), I think I may not have been clear enough about the order I wanted things done in. It worked out ok in the end because we got some nice night-time shots instead anyway. That was literally the only thing that was not how I expected. Everything else was perfect.

The food was fantastic, and they even put up with us changing the menu two weeks before the day to give choices of main instead of beef for everyone. The three mini puddings each served in oversize shot glasses went down really well I think.

We used the hotel's recommendation of DJ for the night entertainment, and a band (GM5) from the same entertainment company who have an ongong relationship with the hotel. The band were great, and the DJ did very well considering we hadn't really had contact with him beforehand to advise him of our tastes, and hadn't even chosen our last dance until the day. I just saw him when he was setting up while the room was turned around between the meal and the evening party, gave him a list of do's and don't's and we were very happy with the result.

We stayed in the Hussey Suite that evening, which was absolutely lovely. The pink curtains on the four-poster bath (yes, you read that right) might not to be everyone's taste, but the bath was huge, as was the very comfortable bed. I liked that you can see on the website the difference between the rooms in the old part of the hotel, done out with traditional heavy wood furniature, and the newer style rooms in the extention part of the hotel, to suit your choice. Before the day, the staff were happy to show us the rooms so we could see the difference, pick our own, and then advise guests. You wouldn't think so, but when we were trying to select a venue, there were some places that acted like things like that were a big ask, and like we were taking up their valuable time for asking to see the style of rooms our guests might stay in, whereas at the Hussey we were made to feel like we could take our time to make decisions and ask as many questions as we liked, and not be subjected to hard-sell or anything.

We have been back for meals in the hotel restaurant a few times since, but I would like to go back to stay there again at some point for a soecial occasion like a birthday or anniversary.

Overall we had a wonderful day. The staff couldn't have done more to help out in anything we asked for, and the food and service was spot-on. We definitely made the right choice to have our big day at the Hussey.

Hosted a wedding faultlessly, couldn't have been more perfect. Venue fantastic, Food was super and the staff brilliant. Can totally recommend Paul and his staff. Had a very good breakfast next morning.

Only bad point was our double bedroom which was very small, furniture mismatched, wardrobe was difficult to use as access was tight at the side of the bed. Tried to sit on lovely boudoir chair at the table to do my hair but the chair was too low and the mirror too high. Bed was very comfortable and ensuite very good.

No view out of the window which was patterned glass, when I opened the window to have a look at the countryside the reason became clear as the view was awful. Putting in the patterned glass was a good idea!!

A room this size in a hotel of this quality should really only be a single, it was certainly not worth the amount they are charging.

We stayed here as part of a wedding party for one night. Check in was swift and in fact the room was ready much earlier than expected which was a bonus. The room was clean and tidy and had everything you could possibly need. The grounds are beautiful and it is in superb surroundings which were perfect for the day of the wedding. Breakfast was also plentiful and was the perfect start to a long day. Couldn't help feeling that given the size of the room, the rate was a little expensive. Aside from that, a lovely stay.

Not a lot I can say.
Great place and great staff !
Love this place and spot on as usual !!
We had room 10 which has just been refurbed I think,plenty big enough and nice finishing touches.
Try it,better than the others including food and a decent price.
.................

. We were booked into one of the rooms that haven't been updated. The gal at check in was a delight and showed us the other rooms available. We were offered one of the updated rooms on the 1st floor. We stayed in the original room as we had our 2 small dogs with us and liked being close to the exit. As noted by a previous review this did face the parking lot. There was no noise from the cars coming in and out. Yes the room needs a bit of updating. If that bothers you make sure you ask for an updated room when booking! The room was well appointed everything did fit in. The room and bathroom very clean. We were offered help with our luggage even though we were on the ground floor. As this was part of a 2 week drive holiday we had several bags to bring in.
Breakfast was very good and yes we had the poached eggs and they were not hard! There was a wedding on Thursday so the hotel was very busy on Friday morning. There weren't any delays in service. We really liked the fact that all the food is locally sourced. There is plenty of choice with cereal, fresh fruit, eggs, sausage, bacon etc. You can get eggs cooked how you like them. No one can go hungry.
We had dinner one night in the restaurant which was excellent. The food being fresh and local makes a big difference. The portions were large we each had a starter and shared a main course.
The grounds as noted in most reviews are outstanding. The garden is a delight. We can see why it is such a popular venue for weddings. Very relaxing to sit outside and read.
There is a lovely walk to the early 15th century church on a path just outside the hotel. A good way to tire out the dogs!
The staff were outstanding. Every single member of staff was helpful, pleasant and made us feel that nothing was too much trouble. We don't want to single anyone out since everyone was equally wonderful. They really make you feel like you are at home away from home.
A few reviews noted the thin walls. We didn't hear too much only the occasional door open and close. We certainly weren't woken up from any noise which is surprising since the hotel was full both nights as there was the wedding and the flower show in Shrewsbury.
We would certainly stay again.

We've spent many wonderful evenings at the Hussey. Superb food, excellent service and warm surroundings. Perfect!

The hotel was excellent staff very capable and friendly. Food 5star. The only fault was in our room 9 the toilet could do with changing as its a bit stained at the bottom. Bleach would not get it off its caused with wear and tear.
The grounds are kept beautiful and the black swan in the stream with the ducks is a good attraction. They have a lot a weddings there? Which would be very good

What a kovely hotel, Staff amazing so friendly without being intrusive, great food amazing breakfast.. Nothing is to much trouble for the team..

When the sun is out the terrace is such a clam peavcefull place to sit and enjoy a nice cool drink.

Rooms comfortable and clean

We were given a gift of one night at the Albright Hussey Manor Hotel (high-street retail gift voucher scheme) and expected "the highest standards of comfort", words from their website. We were saddened to be directed to what appeared to be a 1980s wing where we were greeted by an overwhelming smell of air freshener. View from room: ground floor, overlooking four cars. Observations: cramped; room and decor tatty (see photographs) and in need of updating, in particular the bathroom; complementary home-made biscuits were out-of-date; bedroom walls/door very thin and we could hear everything - the room was next to the laundry and we could hear the washing machines, we could even hear the chap in the room next door going to the toilet; bedroom and corridor door slamming was very loud, making it difficult to sleep (especially when there is a wedding party in the hotel); wardrobe door would not fasten closed and was constantly open. A good point, the staff were friendly and helpful, especially the lady who served our breakfast on Sunday morning! In summary: cramped, tatty and noisy. We tolerated it for one night but would not return to this hotel.

Booked a room for one night on a Sunday to celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary. Was told on the phone we'd be in an exec double room with 4 poster bed. We were put in room 11 which is in the new part of the hotel. I believe the rooms in the original building are lovely but our room was really nothing special.
Went down for dinner at 7pm and was expecting the ala carte menu (a copy of this was in our room) but we were given the Sunday lunch menu. Food was OK, again very average. The waiter was a nice chap.
Breakfast the following morning was nice but don't order a poached egg, mine had a hard yolk and had obviously been left in too long.
Thin walls in the rooms - at 5-30 am I heard the person next door making her/him self a hot drink.

I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough.

We purchased an 8 course taster menu via Trazelzoo & decided to book overnight to make it more special. We only decided to book a room the day before & upon ringing the hotel direct was told that a room was available but it could be noisy due to wedding party. This alone impressed me as not many hotels are courteous enough to warn you of potential noise!

From the moment we arrived nothing was too much trouble. All the staff were friendly, attentive & courteous & special thanks must go to Malcolm for making our stay so pleasurable. Other hotels in the area should send their staff to the Albrighton Hussey to see how a hotel should be run.

Our room was furnished to a high quality & was well deserving of its 4 stars. The bathroom was modern with good facilities although if I was being picky it was a bit small.

The food was fabulous Malcolm even deviated from the taster menu to accommodate for me not liking two of the courses.

If you want a peaceful relaxing break in beautiful surrounding quality rooms & fabulous room then this hotel is for you.

We will definitely be returning to this hotel

Having purchased a chef's eight course taster menu from Travelzoo we decided to stay overnight rather than face a long drive. The hotel is a beautiful Tudor building in a rural location with good views all around. The main building has a terrace at the rear, lovely to sit and enjoy a glass of wine.

The room was compact but nicely and well-furnished (except for dreadful cheap-looking prints on the walls.) The bathroom was a good size. Soft furnishings and towels were of good quality and housekeeping throughout was very good.

The taster menu was well-presented and nicely cooked. Breakfast was very good.

Staff were friendly and efficient.

We would be happy to stay again.

We ahve stayed here a few times now for the odd night. We always have the Hussey Suite as it really is a treat for us. Four poster bath, four poster bed, lovely period room. This place is gorgeous! The food is amazing, the setting is pretty and the grounds are lovely. It is a wonderful place to visit and relax, and not too far from where we live either. Very happy to return here :) Slightly expensive, but in my experience you get what you pay for.

We have just returned from a wedding at the Hussey Manor, the staff were very attentive, happy and efficient..nothing was too much to ask.
The hotel itself, dating back to tudor times was amazing and the scenery would be hard to beat, both the hotel and views from the hotel to surrounding countryside. A superb wedding venue for anyone that is looking!
We would definitely go back.

Great wedding an night doo, staff were very cool, enjoyed my stay ,lovely area, relaxing an surprisingly quiet considering two busy roads near-by which you wouldnt know when on the grounds ;-) i would stay again an also eat here to as the food was nice to.
