Nice room

Friendly check in, nice looking room, wasn’t sure but mattress seemed lumpy and room quite noisy during the evening, hot water for shower seemed a bit lacking. Nice food in restaurant.

Fabulous stay

Had a wonderful stay at the Chester. All the staff we encountered were lovely and very helpful. The room was very comfortable and had a lovely feel to it. Did think that the bathroom was big enough to have a a bath and shower - we only had a shower but that would be the only negative. I hadn't asked for a bath so no complaint.
