DanielUnited Kingdom · Nov 1, 2025 8Very good
Liked : Property location is excellent, great parking facilities (worth the extra charge, lovely bar and breakfast was great!
Disliked : WiFi & TV facilities in the room were very poor, WiFi was barely usable & mobile data reception on the inner rooms was non existent as a back up. Shower tray drainage could’ve been much better & boiler/heating went off during the night/morning

BryanUnited Kingdom · Oct 30, 2025 8Very good
Birthday break
Liked : Hotel is comfortable and clean, staff are fairly pleasant
Disliked : Breakfast was good but £17.50 each was a bit on the high side.
Only one lift worked and it was a lottery getting to your floor if somebody else on a different floor wanted the lift. -

SimonUnited Kingdom · Jan 28, 2025 10Exceptional
Great location, easy to access and overall pleasant experience.
Liked : The room was spotless and provided everything I needed, especially the fantastic tea and coffee setup. I was happy to see the gym was also well-stocked with modern equipment. Arriving by car was hassle-free, thanks to the convenient hotel car park leading straight to reception, where I received a warm welcome. Overall, the hotel lived up to my expectations.
Disliked : The weather! That wasn't too great when I stayed, but the staff were very helpful in directing me around Chester when asked for directions.

MaloneUnited Kingdom · Sep 3, 2024 8Very good
Disappointed in the bar staff
Liked : Room was nice.
Reception staff were lovely.
Bed was comfortable.
Room was quiet even though it was on a main road.Disliked : Very disappointed in the bar on the 5th floor.
I followed my friend up he had ordered a drink we waited 20 minutes for staff to come out of the back room to serve us.
When she came out he customer service skills were not the greatest.
Came back for a drink same miserable staff so got a glass of ice as we had a bottle of wine in the room.
