The location makes a tired hotel acceptable
Good location but the hotel is very tired and needs modernisation it’s not the cleanest dusty staircase and light fittings, carpet threadbare and grimes bathroom with no hot water, a cold shower first thing wasn’t great! The breakfast was a good standard and all staff very friendly.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Needs fully renovating. Shower tap fell off, no toiletries not even bar of soap for washing hands when been to the toilet, room much too hot even when radiator turned off, bathroom floor tiles loose, tv didn't work, breakfast was overcooked. On the good side location is fantastic

Good location
Very noisy room towards the Main Street due to no double glazing on windows. Breakfast was very disappointing with very little choice for continental breakfast

Only stayed 1 night, but Chester is a beautiful City, hotel staff superb and extremely helpful, location was ideal, highly recommend, yes rooms are maybe a little dated but can't fault the place.

Cold shower
We had a lovely stay, despite shower was cold and when mentioned to reception staff upon checking out, was told would make a note and that everyone who had stayed had experienced the same. Hotel and decor is dated in the rooms, bed was comfortable and room temperature was ok. Outdoor noise was a little disturbing early hours in the evening, lots of stairs.

Pleasent hotel
Lovely old hotel in fantadtic location. Romm was clean and comfortable, huge bed, with good facilities. Unfortunately the shower was only producing look warm water at maximum temperature. Breakfast was nice but service was poor due to low staff, just two young waitresses, who did their best but wereclearly struggling.

Excellent City Centre Horel
Great location in middle of Chester City Centre Really helpful and friendly reception staff Decor is in need of updating but hotel is clean Plenty of choice at breakfast and the restaurant staff couldn’t have been more pleasant and helpful
Margaret, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very dated
From the pictures the hotel looks very grand and nice, however i would say that it is deceptive. On the inside the room was very dated and old fashioned. The shower took an incredibly long time to heat up which was frustrating, it also wasnt very powerful. Bathroom was warm Bed was pushed against wall, which wasnt necessary as there would have been space to walk around Staff let me store my bag the next morning which was nice For what it was, id say it was expensive, especially as no food included. I wouldnt encourage staying here to other people, as i have stayed in nicer hotels in chester for the same price.

Xmas Break with Partner..Ok..ish
Stayed with my other half for a 2 night Xmas break, positives was location to the city centre, good sized room, efficient check-in process and breakfast (£12 each), good shower, iron and ironing board, negatives..bar only open on the Saturday night, room needs some tlc (209), towel rail didn’t work, dust in many areas of the room, would be a 2nd choice if other hotels we stay at are fully booked (Abode, Crowne Plaza).

Hotel location was perfect! So close to the shops, multiple cafes, great restaurants, and Chester Cathedral. The staff was helpful, cheerful. The rooms perfect as was the view.

Despite a mixup with the hotel saying the break hadn’t been paid for when it had we enjoyed our stay at the hotel
Phil, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Enjoyable stay.
Suite was good size, but was very warm despite having windows being open (-3 outside) radiators weren’t on so just the general temperature of the room. Bed sank into the middle but was comfortable on the whole. Room decor was fine, if not a little tired could probably do with modernising. Minor blemishes around the room were noticeable, caps on taps missing, cracked plug sockets etc. On the whole good value, but certainly not pristine. Would stay again, but unlikely to pay more.

Not happy
We was not happy with the room rhey give us the wrong one first then given us the right one they did not refresh it one we did not thing it was the usual standard of McDonald's hotels ,we had no cold water for above hour on the first night
Julie, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location, lovely staff, good value
For the price we paid we were very surprised to get such luxury. Check-in was slow but the staff member explained she was the only member of staff in and she was clearly very busy as well as incredibly polite and kind. The room was large and comfortable, although it was advertised as a King bed, it was two singles pushed together and the gap in the middle made it less comfortable. The location was great as it is walkable to basically everytjing we wanted to do around Chester. The only downside was the parking was a bit of a walk away and expensive but the value of the hotel was enough to negate that. Breakfast was lovely, buffet style with hot food to order. Id have liked better hot choice as it was all or nothing and we werent even asked how we wluld like pur eggs. They were fried well but not our preferences.
Rhys, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Central location
Old building in need of refurb/TLC. Great location for city centre and Christmas markets, but also close to a few clubs so was a bit noisy at night (though we had a room closer to the clubs, might not be a problem in other rooms) Buffet breakfast at the weekends when busy, breakfast cooked to order on Monday morning. Good selection of food, though items were running out when busy, and coffee was weak for my taste Bedroom was clean enough, but public areas were hut an miss Overall we would return to Chester, but might choose a different hotel next time

All these bad reviews i was getting about this hotel was nonsence this hotel was old fashined yes but it has class we had a perfect stay at the blossoms the beds were so comfortable the shower was perfect and the staff were so helpful thank you blossoms for a perfect couple of days we will be back
Dave, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Location in central Chester is fabulous. If you like threadbare carpets, cold low pressure showers, intermittent air conditioning, TV with 3 channels that won't turn off and when you complain (very politely) you don't hear anything from the manager despite the promise of being contacted then this is the ideal place to stay. If you love dismal then you will be delighted with this hotel.
Andrew, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Has gone done so quickly under the new management
Booked a double room and was allocated to a single room the size of a cupboard, mearly 9sqm... no customer service and no interest shown in resolving the problem. Management not showing up and didn't care. Breakfast buffet was so poor that past 9.15 on a sunday moring there was nothing left on hot food.
