A great weekend stay.

This was a weekend stay to facilitate attendance at an event and to visit friends.
The room was clean and spacious enough for our stay. Tea, coffee and hot chocolate makings were in the room along with biscuits. The landlady was friendly and acommadating. Parking was nearby in a street, the permit for which was provided by the landlady. The breakfasts were brilliant with a great selection on offer and quality food provided, cooked to perfection.

The property was in a convenient location and accessible to restaurants.
The only drawback was the car parking was unusual as no immediate spaces available. Although where eventually we did park it was suitable. The area was congested and we were lucky to obtain a space.

Good value. Great hostess.

Lesley the hostess was very friendly and helpful. The room was newly renovated, spacious and modern. Breakfast was excellent. The guest house is in the process of being renovated so some of the common areas are a bit tired. But a very comfortable and good stay. An easy 20 min walk to the heart of Worcester.

Great value for price. Relaxed stay.

Host was lovely. Breakfast was excellent, 3 time slots. Room was large and comfortable. The bed was very comfortable, 3 good nights sleep. Two of the four pillows were a bit lumpy but the other two were brilliant, I was on my own so not a problem and would have been able to swap if needed. The only thing missing from the room was a shelf in the shower which would have been handy. I had the bedroom next to breakfast room and the entry hall but not disturbed.

Lovely B&B, within walking distance of town centre

We were dealt with promptly and with a friendly welcome when we arrived at the Shrubbery but the toilet was partially blocked, which we didn't realise until we returned in the evening. However, this was dealt with promply the following day.
I like the fact that the B&B is trying to minimise their use of plastics and I suggested a couple more steps they could take to achieve this, which I hope they take on board.
The room we stayed in had recently been re-decorated/ re-furbished and the kettle didn't fit under the sink taps easily but I forgot to mention this so hopefully this review will go through to the Shrubbery themselves.
Great location, within walking distance of the town centre and all sorts of restaurants and bars.

Great find

I booked this for my partner and her friend who were having a girls weekend away. It's always a bit of a stab in the dark booking for others but I was relieved and very pleased that the feedback I got of their stay was so good. They loved the room, thought it a really nice place with a very friendly host, and a great breakfast! This will be our \"go to\" place should we find ourselves in Worcester in the future.

Lovely guest house.Close to city centre.

Well kept.Very clean and very friendly.Located on the busy main road into the city centre.Very little traffic noise filters into the rooms due to the quality of the double glazing.Just a 15 min walk into the city centre or there are bus stops nearby if you don't want to walk.Plenty of restaurants and pubs within a short walking distance.Would definately stop there again.

Litet familjärt B&B

Ett litet familjärt Bed & Breakfast. Bra rum med bra sängar.
Bra frukost.
Ca 10 minuters promenad till tågstation vilket var bra för oss som tågluffade.
Bra utgångspunkt om man vill besöka Birmingham eller Museijärnvägen i Kidderminister.
