I stayed here for acess to the racecourse that is only a few hunderd walk from. The staff checking in were fantastic and had a very friendly personality. The lobby and bar area were all I saw during my stay and was exceptionally clean and nicely decorated. They were also nice and warm that I really found comfortable. The room was great, comfortable bed, spacious and had everything I needed. I would have no problems at all staying here again.

Excellent hotel in the heart of the city centre. Only a short walk to many of the major attractions. The rooms in the hotel are large and very comfortable. There was a huge choice at breakfast and the possibility to order additional items like kippers! Only downside at the hotel is the cost of parking at £17 a night!

Really nice location. Not too busy. Rooms were nice and warm. Linen could be better as there were iron marks and other black marks present. Staff was incredibly polite and nothing was too much. Breakfast was really nice and fresh. Only dienside was that you had to wait a while for the hot food to be topped up.

Good things: very close to Chester Town Centre and if you are lucky and you arrive early there is parking at ground level. Rooms OK size with good sized TV and fridge. Free bottles of water and very quick replacement of any missing items like hot chocolate powder. Plenty of items like tea bags / coffee. Very welcoming reception staff. There is a pool and a gym. Not so great: main entrance of the hotel is in a grim dark passage surrounded by car parks. There is a large breakfast buffet but taste was a bit boring and the little baguette piece I had was dry and tasteless. Had better and fresher baguette just going to M&S. Some items probably were simply to long under the heat lamp to keep warm as they were hard like the fried egg we had Main problem are the pool rules. Children not allowed to use any gym equipment. Not allowed to use the sauna, steam room, jacuzzi. We arrived Wednesday morning at 8:30 and were told Children are not allowed to swim before 9 am. Bizarre rule. My 10 year old daughter is in a swimming club doing competitions. Why is she not allowed to swim before 9 am ? We returned 9 am and were then told by a pensioner what water gymnastics start at 9:15 and it would be impossible to swim at the same time. So we had 15 minutes in the water and then left. I had chosen the hotel in Chester on purpose so we can look at Chester zoo and go swimming. Would not book this hotel again.

The best part of this property are the employees that make it run. I’d like to give a shout out to the kitchen staff. Especially Maria the cook, and William and Tayanne. They went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and they made us feel welcomed to the Chester community.

The cupboard door furniture was in poor repair - the handle just falls of as it is not securely fixed to the door. Like all hotels there are not enough hangers in the closet. I know I could ask for more, but I should not have to do this. Otherwise, I'm totally happy with the facilities and condition.

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.

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.
