Great walking distance from the train station ( 10mins) and for walking into Chester city centre. No air conditioning in the room and it was quite quite hot but there was a fan provided. Disappointing experience in the spa but otherwise great. Would stay again.

Lovely hotel

Great hotel in a very good location. Very good included breakfast. Staff were wonderful. Great bar for drinks. The only issue was the comfort of the bed in our particular room. The bed was quite creaky and the mattress too hard for us, might be ok for others as people like different mattress types but not for us. Spa lovely and a great added extra at the hotel. Would definitely stay again but upgrade to a superior room and check the bed on arrival

Good value, very clean, excellent facilities, a bit dated in areas but it’s fair to say that’s reflected in the price. The breakfast staff were great, absolute grafters! The leisure facilities were spot on although you are sharing with non guests so it was quite congested.

Comfortable

Hotel is comfortable, a bit dated and our room was right by the road.Road noise wasn't too intrusive though. Pillows could do with being replaced. Breakfast was nice, good choice of food and all well cooked. Staff very helpful.

Great room overlooking the canal , lots of space and a settee. The only disappointment was one radiator in that size of room was not enough and we had to ring down to reception to get an additional heater. This was brought to the room very quickly and did solve the problem
