Incredible location, clean (slightly dated, but adds to the charm) hotel! Air con worked great. Cannot complain and would definitely stay again! Parking only £10 in local shopping centre when validated by the hotel. Recommend!

Verified review

8/10 Very good

The big plus was the room - very well-sized and spacious. The hotel was clean and quiet. There's a small bar, which was nice, though it closed quite early. Breakfast was quite good (without being spectacular). Location is very good. I would happily stay again.

8/10 Very good

The hotel was clean and lovely . We arrived on bank holiday Sunday . The reception staff looked like they didn’t want to be there . The bar and restaurant was closed. They said breakfast was at 7am … it didn’t open till after 8am , the reviews say it was gluten free and vegan friendly , but there was no milk alternative at breakfast. Shame as the hotel is on an excellent location for the city.
Verified review

6/10 Good

I had a single room (225) which was about the size of a broom cupboard, the window was locked shut (for safety reasons the sticker said) so room very stuffy, only air con was a portable device which wasn’t brilliant. The room was clean but there was a water damage stain on the ceiling, also noticed one in the reception area too, a bit of maintenance wouldn’t go amiss. Couldn’t fault the staff, they were very helpful. Overall I give the hotel 3* and the staff 5*
Verified review

4/10 Fair

Unfortunately we were not particularly impressed with the cleanliness of our room. The bed was clean and comfortable. However, the air con unit was caked in dust and was spitting out clumps of lint/dust when turned on. Our shower was mouldy, and the shower curtain was covered in mould. Things like light switches/ door handles were dirty. Quite disappointing

Verified review

6/10 Good

Pro's were hotels central position in Chester, parking close by at reasonable cost with hotel discount. Queen bed was huge and comfortable. Cons were very dated rooms with furnishing and curtains needing a damn good clean. Bathroom was clean with plenty of hot water, not suitable for less able with shower in high sided bath, Extractor fan sounded like jet turbine on take off! Outside noise in street quite high. Room not serviced over our two night stay. Breakfast was disappointing, quality of food poor, cooking ok. The award winning breakfast consisted of one slice of bacon, one sausage, one egg and beans. No black pudding, I did not want tomato or mushroom so assume they were available. Continental consisted of a solitary croissant it appeared. Cost cutting seemed to be the order of the day, a sign of the times I suppose. Value for money only if you want a well positioned city hotel.
