Chester gone down the pan this was my view and the locals I spoke with ,very unkept council should be ashamed of themsel
Pros:

Pretty central

Cons:

The showering taps off the bath being the mixer easy to scald yourself
Should always be on a thermostatic mixer whether that be off taps or thermostatic shower
Rooms very hot even with the window ajar

Disappointed
Pros:

The staff and bar facilities were excellent.

Cons:

However, the rooms were very dated and did not have air conditioning. It was ridiculously hot. I upgraded to business but I shouldn’t have bothered. In addition the bathroom door handle was hanging off.

High class excellent value
Pros:

Lovely large room with quality furniture and bathroom. Pool delightful. Evening meal first class and breakfast very well organised which is unusual for large hotels
Very good value will be first choice in Chester next time

Cons:

Very hot night with no Aircon so the fan made it bearable. Could not leave the window open as our room overlooked a busy dual carriageway

Overall it is a friendly place to stay
Pros:

The Location and Spa

Cons:

Unfortunately we have stayed many times over the years and this year the breakfast was not as good as.

The quality was poor and did not have as much choice as other years
It was a shame as people look forward to a nice breakfast on holiday.
