Had to pay for parking, which is not clear when booking. The sofa bed is one of the worst things I have ever had the misfortune of sleeping on, really poor quality.

Over night stay
Hotel is a 10 min walk of Chester city centre and is right on the race course if that’s your reason for coming. Over all hotel is in good condition. There is a bar for residents though choice is limited. Room was clean and comfortable with choices of pillows. Tea and coffee are also in the room along with a hair dryer. We didn’t get a great nights sleep as there is a busy road next to the hotel, as rooms don’t have A/C you have to open the window for ventilation. I wasn’t happy at being charged for parking £10. As the Hotels.com website said it was free. Though this is more to do with hotels.com than the hotel.

10/10 Exceptional

Great stay, room was lovely and breakfast was plentiful despite us getting there late. Only thing I would say is having to pay for the parking outside because it’s classed as the racecourse was expensive and disappointing.

Perfect for a break in Chester
Great for a family stopover for a couple of nights. Very easy to walk into Chester and as we were in the racecourse facing rooms it was fairly quiet. Breakfast was great with a lot of choice including healthier options.

Christmas markets visit to Chester
A comfortable hotel to stay at in Chester. Close enough to the city centre to walk in passing various historical things. Convenient for the Christmas markets which was the purpose of our visit and close to many eateries.
