Absolutely lovely weekend stay in the Blossom hotel, amazing spacious family room with huge comfortable bed. Was very loud at night as the location is near bars/clubs but it’s not the hotels fault it’s just as it’s central location, would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
We had a room looking onto the main street which became very noisy at night. Saxophonist, drunken groups, street cleaners and a 2 am delivery with serval crates of product made for an awful sleep. Considering this was a family room I'm surprised they put kids there. The room itself was above Lush so if the window was left open your nose burnt from the smell of the shop. There were patches of mold on the ceiling in both the bedroom and the bathroom. The cleaners don't do an amazing job considering we were finding Primark clothing stickers on the floor and curtains from previous occupiers. The bed sheets do not cover the beds when made into a double as soon as you sit on it they move and may as well not be on the bed.

Disliked: Amenities
Location in central Chester is fabulous. If you like threadbare carpets, cold low pressure showers, intermittent air conditioning, TV with 3 channels that won't turn off and when you complain (very politely) you don't hear anything from the manager despite the promise of being contacted then this is the ideal place to stay. If you love dismal then you will be delighted with this hotel.

Good location, that’s about it!
I would say this isn’t really a hotel for families. More of a one night party hotel. The extra Z beds offered for the children were unsuitable, one had no springs down the side! When we let the hotel know they said thanks? Breakfast was average and took and eternity to arrive and the bar is only open on a Friday and Saturday. If you are couple looking for somewhere to stay in Chester for a night and not have to get a taxi it’ll do. Although the travel lodge is only another 100m down the road!
No springs
A very sorry lamp

Great location but only good rating on the room.
No aircon and the room was very warm due to heating constantly blasting out from the bathroom radiator. Cobwebs in the bathroom and bedroom.

We stayed as part of a Hen party. Room was very dated, there was hair in the bath and on the bathroom floor. Stiflingly hot even with aircon on. Lots of noise from nearby venues. On the morning of Che k out we were in bed and someone let themselves in thinking the room was empty! Not acceptable

Attic room was a bit claustrophobic. Carpets were old and grubby and walls could have benefitted with some fresh paint. It was clean though and bed was ok. Bathroom clean but very small.

Lovely stay, and the staff themselves were great. The lack of staff at breakfast times was the main issue, along with a very poor selection and layout at breakfast. The continental breakfast selection was very poor for the price paid. We would definitely return, but would not have the breakfast again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Check in was great, staff helpful and kept our luggage safe until we could check in at the correct time. However, the room had a terrible outlook, overlooking a low wall that had public convenience tiles on it, with large holes. We went for a nightcap in the bar, but it had no Baileys and no brandy. Also, the coffee machine was not in operation, although the barman did get us some hot water and coffee sachets, which we didn't pay for as this was avaliable in our room. The hotel is in a fabulous location for shopping and viewing locations, but let down by the above.
