I loved this Hotel. Very welcoming and friendly. I particularly liked the fact that the breakfast was freshly made to order and piping hot, no lukewarm buffet. Good evening meal options also. Within a mile to Chester town to walk or staff will call you a taxi. Will definitely return

A lovely independent hotel worth a visit.
I had a pleasant one night stay. It was clean and tidy, the shower was a little feeble but it did the job! Breakfast was very nice and the staff always willing to help. Would definitely stay again.

Mixed review
I received a really warm welcome on arrival and was directed to my room. The building has a lot of character, however, this does mean a lot of creaky floorboards. I stayed in an economy room. As such, it was tiny, but ample for one night. The bathroom was clean, the shower was hot with sufficient water from the shower head. Fabulous cooked breakfast, catered for my gluten and dairy allergy without prior notice. Negatives - Bald patches in the carpet. The bed was hard and very uncomfortable. The room was hot (it's December, so this shouldn't have been an issue!). I had to open the window overnight which exacerbated the noise from the traffic outside. On top of that, the duvet was thick, hot and heavy. I think I spent most of the night awake! The floorboards creaked from the room above. Walls are thin, so when the person next door comes in or goes out, it sounds like they are in the room with you! The beeper on the door is loud, so when your neighbour doesn't shut the door properly, it can go on for ages. All in all, the staff are great and the breakfast was lovely, but it's not enough to make me want to stay again.

Lovely Hotel, cosy, friendly and helpful staff. Convenient ten minute walk into the town centre. Breakfast was ok. Evening meal was ok, far too salty. Rooms need updating, decor a bit tired and dated. Parking very tight but thankful there was parking.

Nice hotel with friendly staff but dont eat there!
Parking is limited in the small car park but I found a space. The hotel is nice and the staff are very friendly and attentive. The hotel and rooms are dated so if you like that you will like it here. The bed for me was small and a bit lumpy but otherwise, I had a good sleep. Expensive small bottled beers and no draught beer. The menu is limited, I didn't eat in as the town is a 15-minute walk away with better restaurants. Lots of lounge areas to relax in and meet people. Full English Breakfast was cooked to order however the food quality was not that great. The sausage was cheap tasting and overcooked, mushrooms had I think paprika over them which made them taste funny, otherwise the rest is ok.
