Will be back

One night stay following a day at Chester Zoo. Relaxing to have a swim/sauna after walking round for several hours. Good bar food -enjoyed my steak ciabatta which arrived speedily despite a school prom being held in another room at the time, staff remained pleasant and efficient throughout. Breakfast was excellent, nice continental and light breakfast choices and provided in a light airy room. The gardens are always beautiful to stroll round (this was not my first stay) ,particuarly breathtaking at this time of year when in full bloom..

Amazing staff, great facilities, reasonable cost only let down with a few of the areas showing a little age that would be easily rectified ie blown bath panel trim, grout needed touching in. Good location too

Disliked: Staff & service
• I checked in and the room wasn’t ready. • There was a birthday that took up most of the hotel, they were loud in the garden outside my room. I called reception at 22:30 to ask if they could manage it at all. They said it was finishing soon. It finished finally two hours later at around 0:30. • checking out they tried to charge me for the room for a second time. They also added two breakfasts to my bill that I hadn’t had and disputed this with me when I tried to get them taken off the bill.

Very poor think twice about booking!!!!

Booked for a romantic stay to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This should be a 4* hotel at best i would stay at best 2*. This is due to the very poor condition of the room (room 109). I paid £200 for a Master Suite for 1 night stay. While the room looked nice at a 1st glance there were some major issues, Damp on the walls, Mould in the bathroom around the shower, Damaged shower screen and shower, Mould above the window in the bedroom, Broken window openings, Cracked window, Stained carpets, Several mirror units which have been damaged and either taped over or chipped, Bed this has been repaired in 2 different areas (opposite corners) and have not been repaired correctly meaning the bed had a diagonal twist in it YOU DONT EXPECT THIS FROM A 4* HOTEL. Before I arrived i was asked if I wanted to upgrade my room and name my price for the upgrade. The following morning at checkout I went to settle my account and also asked when is the room due to be refurbished and the receptionist was aware of most of the problems What concerns me is they knew about the problems and still put me in there. The breakfast is extremely over priced and you have to ask for things such as butter for the toast, where are the pastries, additional apple juice as it was empty. I waited in bar area for an hour wanting a coffee while my mife was having a massage (something she did enjoy) and when she returned i had to go to the reception to ask is anyone serving drinks, another 30mins

Characterful hotel with lovely spa & gym facilities. The hotel is a bit dated and in need of some referbishments. Our original assigned room was not made up when we got up to it and had to go back to reception. This seemed like a complete shock to the person on reception but the dirty linens were still on the floor, the un-made duvet and pillows were thrown on the bed and there was rubbish and used items from the tea set about the room. After the receptionist made a few quick phone calls we were assigned a new room. The new room was large with a huge bathroom including a shower and separate bathtub. There were signs of wear about the room, marks on the walls, etc.... but we had a lovely stay and it was comfortable.
