Great stay
I had a great stay here. I checked in late in the day however staff still showed great support welcoming me. My room was very clean and was decorated beautifully. The room had a great tea and coffee station and the bathroom featured a selection on lovely shower products.

8/10 Very good

Staff very friendly
We had a very enjoyable stay. The staff were amazing very friendly and always helpful. The only negative was the bathroom was cold as the heated towel rail was not working and that was the only heat source in the room. It was January but did not spoil the trip.

Chester Stay
Nice clean room and warm too - excellent heating! Food was good too and the staff friendly. Had I known I should have booked a ground floor room. Outlook across the river Dee from the restaurant was wonderful and would be fantastic in the summer.

Wonderful hotel & restaurant
A really lovely room, it appears to be new. The shower room was amazing, great shower and the tiles looked really nice. The floor of the bedroom wasn’t clean on arrival but when I asked about it they dealt with it quickly. All staff were very friendly and the service was great in the restaurant. The breakfast and evening meals were delicious and great value. We were given £20 vouchers due to our tv not working during our stay which was a kind gesture. The parking is included and so convenient. The hotel situation in Chester is perfect for just a short stroll into the shops. My husband and I both loved our stay here and we plan to return next summer. Thank you so much.
