Superb location. Our fourth time here. Always leave very happy, refreshed & ready to deal with the big city.
Pros:

They put a cooked breakfast back on the menu.
Always been a great place to stay. A log fire in the hearth was a welcome treat in the lounge & a complementary late check out allowed us more time to pack

Cons:

From the outside looking at the newer part of the hotel doesn’t do it many favours but from inside looking out it’s amazing

Amazing Chainbridge
Pros:

Location great, room clean and new from balcony wonderful. Staff friendly evening meal and breakfast good

Cons:

We stayed one night but the only thing was it was too hot the heating was too high in the hotel. Because we had to keep the windows and doors to the balcony closed i was too hot in bed. Bar that I loved the place.

You go to this hotel for where it is
Pros:

Great location and views from our room. The patio overlooking the river and bridge was great. Lovely walks along the River Dee. Room was comfortable. Staff were helpful.

Cons:

Did not cater well for gluten free. Could do so much more with the food options.

Would avoid
Pros:

The view over the water was nice.

Cons:

Parking was a problem, the bed was small and solid. The hotel itself was like a time warp back to the 80’s. The room itself was hot and stunk of deep frying oil. A kitchen extractor was right outside my window causing noise for the entire stay. Would not recommend anyone staying here.

Fabulous location
Pros:

Stunning location, comfortable and clean, food very good, staff very polite and welcoming

Cons:

Property having rooms refurbished wondered why the dressing mirror in room 4 was impossible to see in if sitting on the dressing stool, needs turning portrait style otherwise you have to stand! Need to be 7 feet tall to see in the mirror from seating position. The addition of a large rug is a trip hazard as it keeps moving and isn’t necessary. Beautiful room just snagging points.
