As soon as I arrived the staff were absolutely amazing, nothing is ever too much trouble. I travel a lot for work and so am by myself when I stay away but I was made to feel just like one of the family. The hotel its self including my gorgeous 4 poster bedroom was immaculate, large and one of the the comfiest beds I've ever slept in. The breakfast list was really good, everything you could think of was on it. It arrived piping hot and was delicious, I didn't eat in the evening but I'm sure the food and menu here would be second to none also. The grounds and gardens are very pretty and great for walking/jogging around. When ever I'm working in Shrewsbury and the surrounding areas I always stay overnight but I usually stay in a large modern hotel with spa, gym and pool. However, Rowton Castle has impressed me so much that I'll be using this place from now on and do with out the gym/pool.

As it is such an old grade II listed property there is no lift but just lots of stairs. My bag was really heavy and wearing 4 inch stiletto's didn't help, but I'm sure if I asked someone would have carried my bag for me.

The breakfast and evening meal were excellent. The staff extremely helpful, we have stayed in many places around the world and in this country and this has to be the friendliest, cleanest and efficiently run establishment we have visited. Superb we will definitely be visiting again. Thank you.

Room 20 should be off limits to the elderly or disabled, but it was a nice room just lots of stairs to climb. Perhaps a lift would help the housekeeping team ?

The castle was stunning, clean and rooms large and beautifully furnished. Gardens also beautiful. The receptionist and staff very friendly and attentive.

The bed was uncomfortable (but that is more about me liking a soft bed than an issue with the bed) We did find the room too hot (top floor) - small fans in cupboard did help and I think lower levels wouldn’t have been as hot.

Beautiful hotel in a superb location. Excellent food - our meal was interesting and so tasty! Well done to the chef, indeed all the staff who were friendly, helpful and professional. The room was very comfortable and we had a quiet, peaceful nights stay.

Toilet flush difficult to use!

Beautiful castle and grounds, staff very pleasant. Comfy bed stunning wedding venue.

Was on the top floor so was a bit awkward up the stairs with the luggage so be aware if have poor mobility also the shower was dated and was in a bath which could do with a hand rain when getting in and out.

Beautiful castle with lovely garden and outdoor seating areas. Each bedroom was unique, freshly decorated, warm and ours had a comfy bed. Breakfast was good with very attentive, friendly staff. Set in a rural location close to Shrewsbury, Welshpool and Powis Castle.
