Apartment 5 mins from main hotel
Emailed hotel before we set off to ask about parking situation was told nearest one was about 5min walk away so parked there and then walked with baby and luggage to drop our bags as knew check in wasn’t till 3… didn’t realise there was no step free access so climbed stairs with everything to find out we had free parking with our appt, 5 min walk away so had to go back to take everything back down stairs and to the car to pay for parking we’d had, take luggage and car to appt! When we checked in later at 3/4 ish with baby ready to be fed, bathed and put to bed the WiFi was not working so we could not connect monitor etc and hotel didn’t seem to be bothered when we phoned to tell them! Spacious apartment with bathroom on each bedroom but all looked dated and didn’t feel particularly clean maybe as lighting so dull cleaners could not see in the winter months when not much daylight Asked for refund as didn’t feel the facilities were up to scratch but was refused as said should have complained at the time… which I thought we did when we phoned?

Very comfortable stay in central Chester
Really good central location which offered good value for money. Staff were excellent and went above and beyond when we accidentally left our son’s soft toys behind. Beds comfortable and a well-designed room layout. Only downside was the very worn bathroom area. Flooring reminiscent of a 1980s leisure centre and the toilet door allowed only a little privacy due to very limited frosting. Ok for our family but maybe not for a romantic mini-break! Would recommend.

Special room for a birthday treat!
Amazing Duplex room with bath in bedroom. Trendy, quirky and modern. A few lights were out in the high ceiling and the stand up light in lounge area also didn’t work. Just made the room a little dark but we still loved it. Love oddfellows and stayed a few times as it’s in a great location, friendly staff and fab cocktails. We will defo return and book this amazing room again.

Great Apartment
Booked this hotel for my friends and I purely for a place to sleep after a day out so the price we paid (£120 total) was very reasonable for Chester. My party comprised 4 adults and we were allocated a 2 bedroom apartment at the hotel's annex. The apartment was more than suitable for our needs but would be a great place to use for a multi-night stay. There was even a car park spot at the annex which we didn't use.

Good value for money
We both enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The staff were helpful and friendly. The hotel is in a perfect location to explore this beautiful city. Parking is in a nearby multistorey. The décor is very quirky and the glass door in our room that is shared between the shower / bathroom and toilet takes some getting used too! The breakfast was continental with a large range of pastries, cereals, meats fruits and breads. We would certainly visit again our only criticism was on our final night we were disturbed by 4 middle aged drunken women who insisted in shouting screaming and running up and down the corridor at 1am. A difficult situation which we felt wasn't dealt with at all either at the time or in the morning.

The quirky Oddfelllows.
There seemed to have been a few changes since our stay earlier this year. Breakfast was disappointing, no alternative to continental, which wasn’t as fresh aa expected. No visible presence of a staff member to even ask. Coffee/tea basic. The hotel itself was as clean and as comfortable as usual but just felt a little more impersonal than usual. Located well though for everything Chester

Avoid - horrible service and misinformation
Atrocious! Avoid at all costs, told us to park in a dodgy, tiny car park - even though we had 2 pregnant women and a baby with us - and despite the fact that WE WERE ENTITLED TO A SPACE WITH OUR BOOKKN. Service was horrible too. Loads of other good hotels right next door. AVOID oddfellows at all costs

Crap service at overpriced bar.
So a nice boutique hotel, very comfortable bed. Shower door leaked water a bit. No lift as listed building, think maybe they should make that clearer as some older buildings do have a lift. My partner has a disability and there were a lot of stairs. Outside area was nice, but they didn’t put lights on at night. One staff member who worked on the bar ignored me and served the people behind me purely because she thought I may want a cocktail as I had looked at the menu. She was mixing one when I got there and didn’t look very happy about it. When someone else served me I did ask for a cocktail and did comment on the service. She asked the same woman to make it and she answered “ I’ll try”, I told her not to bother and ordered something else. Other than that the other staff were all good.
