Hotel in the centre, with history

Directly in the city centre. Nice design of common spaces. Room a little outdated. Single room not big, but okay. There was noise from a ventilation outside of my room. Very good breakfast (payed before 12£, in the morning 16 £ Continental, 22 £ full.

Property ideally centrally located. Reception staff friendly and efficient. Room could do with an update, towel rail connection held together with tape, dusty in some areas, generally clean, no remote for tv but can be controlled by buttons on the side of the tv, this gives you restrictive control.

Friendly staff but unfortunatly the room was not up to standard. Towel rail wires exposed ,light shades very dusty. Breakfast was not the best. Stayed a few months earlier on the third floor and the room there was to a better standard.

It’s a struggle to find anything positive to say about the hotel, other than its location. Our room was in need of a good polish. The main light in the room was in need of replacement and the toilet didn’t work properly. The breakfast was average. We did raise our concerns and were told the hotel manager would speak to us. The manager was conspicuous by his absence. The location Is literally the only reason for 2 stars

Fantastic value for money

Exceptional value for money! Stayed in a suite which was huge and also meant the kids and adults had separate but adjoining rooms. Location is excellent with cheap parking Very close by. Very clean and quiet, staff were all lovely and kids got a free breakfast which was very nice. Only slight issue was a lack of hot water when trying to use the shower. You won't find better value for your money in Chester.
