Short break
Generally good but the dining hall looked messy due to large number of uncleared breakfast tables. Simple to address. Hotel car parking could do with signage on main road to help people find it. I would stay again.

The hotel is situated within easy walking distance of city centre shops, the cathedral and Chester racecourse. All the hotel staff were very welcoming, helpful and friendly. The bedroom had everything required including coffee and tea making facilities. The restaurant offered a good breakfast and a good selection of meals for dinner. We also enjoyed a bit of time in the swimming pool. Excellent.

The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. The staff were amiable and the breakfast was very good. Very pleasant, calm atmosphere throughout the hotel. The only negative was there was some road noise, but this was due to the fabric and design of the building.

Good location, but a bit dated.
Nice location, now with plenty on offer from the New Indoor Chester Market on the door step. Advice to use the council car park under the hotel, a lot cheaper than the one provided that is almost full every night.

Pretty hotel in centre of Chester. Main attraction is the swimming pool which is very nice. The kids had fun for hours. Main drawback is inadequate parking so very stressful if you arrive when it's full and have to hang around waiting for someone to leave. Has electric car charging points but some people park in these spots out of desperation and it isn't monitored. Chris on reception was amazing, so friendly and helpful. All the staff were friendly, even the cleaners. The restaurant has a very nice breakfast buffet with a good range on offer but nothing for vegans. Michael went the extra mile and got the kitchen to make something suitable. The chef Joe used my own pancake recipe to make me vegan pancakes. So appreciate the extra effort from both these members of staff. Dinner service was very disorganised - so waited too long for our order to be taken and then for dessert to be ordered and finally for the table to be cleared and eventually had to go to the desk to ask for the bill a second time. Again nothing for vegans and no flexibility to make things fresh without cheese, etc. But appreciated the flowers on the tables and friendliness of staff. The food was very good.
