What a find !!

What an amazing hotel. Bedroom was superb, food was excellent and the service was faultless. An absolute bargain and we will most definitely be back!
The stunning view that greeted us.
Nigel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s good to remember this is a castle for several reasons. The first being the heating system is antiquated. Second, wi-fi has dead spots and does not necessarily work in your room. Third, the castle caters to groups/weddings and some get quite loud. They are celebrating. With these things in mind it was a nice stay.

Breakfast could of been warmer, the plate's on the first date were cold. Food quality was good.Food and plates were warm on the second day as we arrived at the very start of service. Minor complaint every thing else was excellent.

Style over service

Wedding guest and booked a standard room at £200+ per night. Checking in slow and complicated (hotels.com Booking) Lovely venue and very unique but bed was soooo uncomfortable and rock hard! Bathroom was also a bit tatty and needed an upgrade/better shower screens as taking a shower meant water everywhere and a bit dangerous. Some of the event staff were a bit rude/inexperienced and breakfast the next day was a 40 minute wait (the staff on that morning were lovely but clearly not enough of them/kitchen overwhelmed with orders which when they arrived weren’t that great tbh. Paying for the venue style rather than the services tbh and tbh, would have had a better night’s sleep and breakfast at a Premier inn for 1/3 of the cost.

Stayed for our Anniversary. Beautiful location. Reception staff friendly. Breakfast staff were amazing. Hairdryer packed up as cheap and no replacement. Bath panel Bradley marked and chipped. No biscuits with tea in room on arrival. Main restaurant very limited as set 7 course meal at £75 per person very expensive. Being able to explore the castle was a great bonus. Bath tubs with flowers in at entrance not fitting for grandeur of place. Would like to see brasserie open as bar during day. Perhaps a welcome drink for guests would be a nice touch.

Real castle, Realy fine dining.

A real castle in extensive grounds. The tasting menu in the 1851 restaurant was excellent and very competitively priced.

Unfortunately only stayed for one night but staff was friendly, room was nice and clean, bed was comfortable and the whole setting and being in a castle is just a great setting for special occasions.

Thank you to all the staff

Me and my husband stayed for our 10 year wedding anniversary. We had an amazing time and we were treated so well. I can honestly say that we would come back again and it made our weekend thank you to all the staff.

this property certainly has the WOW factor.....entrance through the portcullis onto the green lawn, and then being shown to a wonderful bedroom. the hotel is very well placed for visiting Chester, the Wirral and port sunlight, which we enjoyed enormously

Nicola, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Glad to go home after our stay. Gutted

We had anticipated a restorative stay at the castle; however, the accommodations proved significantly substandard. The small room was exceptionally unclean, especially the carpeting, necessitating serious consideration of immediate departure. The cost was disproportionate to the quality, resulting in considerable disappointment. While we registered our concerns, the response was inadequate. The experience failed to provide the necessary respite, and the room required substantial refurbishment and replacement of the outdated furnishings.

Ett absolut fantastiskt ställe! Är byggt som hotell runt 1850 och är inte ett slott i verklig bemärkelse, men ett av de absolut bästa hotell jag sovit på! Det finns trappor och korridoren och rum lite överallt, en mysig pub nere i "källaren" och en liten mysig restaurang med bra mat och bra priser. Ett helt enastående ställe, och skulle
