Nice staff and great food. No shower in the room, no iron in the room. Located very close to a main road with single glazed windows. Very loud Seemed to be understaffed, a lot of waiting Very basic table and chairs in the restaurant area, but they do have a nice snug

Great stay at The Salwey Arms

We had a fantastic stay at Salwey Arms! Staff are amazing, went above and beyond to meet our needs to ensure our short break went to plan, even offering to transport us into Ludlow as we were struggling to secure a taxi. Which in the end they managed to sort for us, both there and back enabling us to attend pre-booked live concert at Ludlow Castle. We were able to check-in earlier than planned, our room was cosy, spotlessly clean with everything we could possibly need. The bed was extremely comfortable with high quality bedding, which enabled a great nights sleep. Breakfast was delicious, cooked fresh to order and the menu provided a lovely range of options. A great place to stay!

Great stay

The staff and owners were extremely friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was excellent and the stay included an excellent breakfast with as much coffee (or if you prefer, tea) as needed.

A real gem !

We had an absolutely lovely experience at the Salwey Arms this week. The hotel was spotlessly clean, the food was excellent and the service throughout our stay was warm and welcoming. A special mention to the owners, Ben and Jack, who went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Ben even took the time to have a personal chat with us - a genuinely kind and engaging gesture that made our visit feel even more special. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Salwey Arms to others, and are already looking forward to returning. A real gem!

We didnt actually stay stay at the hotel but paid for friends to stay and had dinner with them on the evening. Our frends found the room ok but they didn't rave about it. The meal was ok but we did have a very long wait, over an hour, without any updates. We ordered a bottle of red wine which came as an opened bottle with some removed. How can somone serve a bottle wine and not notice its opened and not full. They did replace it but the apology lacked conviction. All in all everthing was okish but not special. Breakfast was included in the price, but they had an early start and breakfast didnt start until 7.30. We did ask if they could provide a takeaway breakfast but this apparently wasnt possible. Disappointing. Surely they could have prepared this on the evening ready for them next morning. Are our friends the only people who need an early start? There was also some confusion on how they.were going to be able to exit the building. Again there did not seem to be a policy, procedure for such events. We expected better for the price.

venue is located on a cross roads of the A49 between Ludlow and Leominster which is a fairly busy junction at many times of day & night. Also located next to a 24hour Asda service station and travel lodge which created vehicle move movements at all times of day & night. We ate in the Salway hotel each night in addition to Breakfast and found the food & service helpful and attentive and the room adequate for our needs. We had been to the hotel previously and found it suitable to our needs.

Room was small. Noise from the extractor unit when the windows were open. We needed the windows open as the room was hot because it was so small.
