Overall a fab stay, would definitely use this hotel again, check in & car registration was faultless, requested a room not too far from reception as my partner has mobility issues this was done for us, room clean and very comfortable. Thankyou 10/10

Great stay

Great stay, the bedroom was clean and comfortable. Good choices for breakfast. We had an evening meal in the bar, the staff there were lovely, We unfortunately didn’t have chance to use the leisure facilities.

10/10 Exceptional

Love staying here, stay around 3-4 times a year. Great location, very clean and friendly staff.
Leanne, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel room was very quiet with black out blinds and a comfortable bed, so we had a great night's sleep. The room and bathroom was spotless. The only downside is that the corridors looked a bit scruffy, but I guess they get a lot of wear. The bedrooms, lounge and reception were great. We didn't use the pool or gym but it looked good.

Friendly staff. Nice breakfast selection. Good room.
Mohammed, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Room was great and so was the hotel, just the bed was like sleeping on a PE Mat and the pillows were too big. I only like thin pillows. So really nice but bed not that good for me. Still I'd rather stay here with all the facilities and service.

Smelt a mould when you walked in the room (317) and from reception to the room, you needed an Uber!

Great family city break

Chester is a fantastic city to visit especially with the children. Lots to see and do. We dod a family trail and learnt do much. The hotel was a great base, just across the road is a park and ride bus service that took you straight to the centre snd easy to pick up back to the hotel. Great to have the pool and restaurant service too the breakfast certainly filled us up for our days out.

Roger, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel needs a refurbishment tbh, it’s a bit battered and old, signs of much wear and tear, eg Doors with years of dirty hand prints. It’s in a great location and would really benefit from a modernisation. The Restaurant staff were superb, in particular was Mark (on duty 26th Sep 2025 at 1815hrs) who was also mentoring another staff member. He was quite excellent, knowledgable, efficient and not over bearing, please pass this onto him. The other staff were also fantastic, I dian girl was very pleasant and efficient..!

One night stay

Me and my daughter stayed one night, enjoyed the swimming but the changing area floor and mats could do with a clean. Food and service very good. Our bedroom was spacious and the bed was clean.
