Outstanding

It is not often that I feel compelled to leave a review but Hotel Indigo deserves the recognition. We stayed for two nights, a busy Saturday and a quieter Sunday. Checking in was easy, although car parking is some distance away and worth noting if walking is an issue. The room was lovely, beautifully presented and with free drinks and snacks complimentary. The bathroom was modern, spotless and the walk-in shower was huge. Breakfast both days was excellent with lots of choice. We had Sunday dinner and it was the most incredible roast either of us had ever eaten. We had drinks in the very pleasant bar area. What really makes this hotel stand out are the staff. It is really noticeable how good they all are. Every single one of them went over and beyond with their service, friendliness and attention to detail. Even watching the talented chefs clearing up after service was commendable. Thank you for a wonderful stay and thank you to the staff at Hotel Indigo, you do an amazing job.

Not the best!

The hotel is in a good location with NCP parking nearby, the hotel itself is good however there was a lot of things that made it a disappointment, our room was opposite the stairs and lift, and while the doors are supposed to be soundproof we could hear people coming and going through the evening, night and early morning. The room coffee bags supplied are a terrible idea you have to put them In boiling water stirring for 3 to 4 minutes, this produces a below average tepid cup of coffee and that is if you take it black and absolutely cold with the refrigerated milk added, also the cans of water taste terrible and again who thought this was a good idea, there is quirky and being ridiculous. The food selection in the restaurant was poor especially if you are vegetarian or vegan, luckily Chester is full of top quality restaurants to eat at. Finally, we had to go and collect our own gowns and slippers from reception that should Have been supplied in the room. We have stayed in several hotel indigo hotels and this does appear to be in our opinion one of the worst!

The hotel is within walkable distance from the main shopping and tourist areas of the city. The hotel does not have a car park, which means that a public car park must be used, although this can be paid in advance at the hotel. The hotel's family bedroom comprised of two double beds, which were quite high off the floor and a good-sized wall-mounted TV. The bathroom contained an excellent power shower. Breakfast offered a choice of english and continental breakfasts. Generally, a comfortable hotel for one or two nights.
