Fabulous Festive Break
Me and my daughter had the most wonderful festive break. The hotel was decorated beautifully. The food, Christmas cocktails, and the festive afternoon tea were fabulous and all the staff were so friendly and professional.
We can’t wait to come and stay again next year.

Great except for one thing.
The grounds and the main part of the hotel were excellent as were the staff. The only disappointment was the fridge in our room the motor of which kept kicking in on a regular basis. This meant that we couldn’t get a proper silent night as the noise of this was quite intrusive.
Other than that, it was a good stay.

Located about 30 mins from Chester centre. The hotel and staff are very friendly and the food is good. Fantastic for golf and the Spa is available if needed (not used). Plenty of free parking and the grounds are stunning and well kept.

Wow! This place is one of the best hotels I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. The staff are impeccable. On so many occasions nowadays, the hospitality industry is let down by poor staff with poor customer service skills. This place sets the standards for all hotels. Food is great, rooms are great and the facilities in and around the hotel are fantastic. Will be returning again and again.

Lovely place to stay for golf or leisure
Another lovely golf stay at Carden Park. Both courses in great condition. Very friendly and helpful staff both at the Hotel and the Clubhouse/Golf Courses. Also a great place if you don't play golf with the free leisure facilities and beautiful grounds to walk in and the Spa is fabulous.

Disappointed
I expected more for the price tag. I have stayed in hotels where I get the same for much less. Fridge light kept me up, no one explained the room heating and when I did figure it out was hard to get a good temp. Food was good and young staff at evening meal and breakfast need to mindful what they say as customers hear it all ! Overall disappointed and the spa area it’s quite small and lacks loungers to chill on

Mixed Review
Mixed Review, the place is beautiful! Lovely location, lovely place with friendly helpful staff and large spacious rooms. We had a room with two doubles beds which was nice. We only stayed 1 night and also went to the morning spa that was very nice.
The down side, we ate in the Redmans restaurant thinking it would be really good. Unfortunately my partners starter of mushrooms wasn’t very nice and worst of all we both had sirloin steak as a main which was the worst steak we’ve both ever had. It’s a real shame as we were looking forward to the meal.
We would stay there again as the place is beautiful but would be extremely cautious about eating there again. Spoilt the night for us to be honest.
