Lovely hotel for exploring Cheshire
Pros:

Conveniently located just a short drive outside Chester in a quiet location with good parking. Great welcome from staff at Reception and a pleasant meal in the hotel restaurant on our first night of a four-night stay. Very good gym facilities and pool added to the stay. It’s very reasonably priced with good breakfasts and a great base for going further afield. We drove to Conwy and Anglesey and spent another day in Liverpool, about 40 mins away. We’d stay here again.

Cons:

This is obviously nothing to do with the hotel, but there’s a very tricky road junction to cross to get into Chester. It took us a couple of trips to work it out! So many traffic lights and lanes - the Highway Agency needs to take a look!

Nice stay but needs a refurb
Pros:

Great location. Staff friendly. Got cheap deal which was good.

Cons:

Needs a refurbishment as rooms and pool changing rooms very run down. Also more attention to detail with cleaning. Radiator was so dusty and had another persons top stuffed behind it. Needs a good deep clean.

Great hotel with friendly staff
Pros:

The property was in a good location and only a short uber to the centre of chester, it had lots of facilities like a pool, jacuzzi and gym.

Cons:

The car park is not managed by the hotel and if there is a problem the hotel cannot help you.

Mattresses on bed could be comfier, steam room not very hot and often no staff at reception/bar area.

Pros:

Breakfast was lovely especially the mushrooms

Cons:
