Good hotel for travelling into Chester. Room was slightly different than I booked due to the hotel not having the one I booked available. They offered a bottle of Prosecco and two free drinks to compensate. Breakfast was good.

Perfect hotel for a weekend break. A couple of miles from the city but with the park and ride next door location isn’t a problem. Plenty of free parking. Staff I encountered were all professional and helpful including the team at the Health Club.

Trapped in a Time Warp

Start with the positives . General housekeeping in the room very good. Staff excellent. HOWEVER the room had very large windows but because of the failure to up-date the building this made the room very cold. The heating was switched off , so it was a very uncomfortable stay. The plumbing is very old and desperately needs updating . The carpet in the restaurant is filthy . Sorry ,but the hotel has a very neglected feel to it .

Small room but good facilities

The staff were lovely and helpful,the breakfast fantastic. The room was small,but was a compact double,and was a bit tired. The gym and pool facilities were very good. Well positioned to have lovely walk along canal, and easy car ride 7 mile to Cheshire oaks and aquarium.

Enjoyable stay and excellent staff

It was a very enjoyable stay and the staff were excellent. The only glitch was when paying for my stay on check-in and there was some sort of malfunction with the payment system. It was a lengthy wait while it was being sorted out but these unexpected problems do occur from time to time.
