Great except for one thing.

The grounds and the main part of the hotel were excellent as were the staff. The only disappointment was the fridge in our room the motor of which kept kicking in on a regular basis. This meant that we couldn’t get a proper silent night as the noise of this was quite intrusive. Other than that, it was a good stay.

Poor stay overall - not worth the money

Despite this being our 4th or 5th stay as returning guests, this one will be our last. Complacency has set in. No extra customer service, just the basics. Bedroom was small, dark, carpet old, dents in the wall, bathroom was basic, shampoo watered down, the bed was really very uncomfortable and old. Walls really thin - heard every conversation of people walking past and the family next door. Leisure area and changing rooms were tired, showers had black mould in them and drains were smelly. No food available after 5pm, only crisps at the bar or the a la carte restaurant that has a dress code! We were asked if it was a special occasion, it was our anniversary and we said as much, but nothing else was said or offered. Why even ask us?? Food at breakfast was sub-standard produce, so much so, we left on the 2nd morning ahead of breakfast as we did not want to eat anything there even tho paid for. Noah and Jess in the bar were the BEST PART of the stay, have very good customer care, super personalities, great at their job and a real asset to the hotel. We left sad and disappointed after paying for still a relatively expensive 2-night stay, after looking forward to our anniversary weekend. Will be looking for better places to stay next time we come to Chester where the customer is put first, the rooms are comfortable and the food is good quality. We are sad we felt so disappointed by this stay after previous visits. Totally not worth the money.

Mixed Review

Mixed Review, the place is beautiful! Lovely location, lovely place with friendly helpful staff and large spacious rooms. We had a room with two doubles beds which was nice. We only stayed 1 night and also went to the morning spa that was very nice. The down side, we ate in the Redmans restaurant thinking it would be really good. Unfortunately my partners starter of mushrooms wasn’t very nice and worst of all we both had sirloin steak as a main which was the worst steak we’ve both ever had. It’s a real shame as we were looking forward to the meal. We would stay there again as the place is beautiful but would be extremely cautious about eating there again. Spoilt the night for us to be honest.

Disappointed

I expected more for the price tag. I have stayed in hotels where I get the same for much less. Fridge light kept me up, no one explained the room heating and when I did figure it out was hard to get a good temp. Food was good and young staff at evening meal and breakfast need to mindful what they say as customers hear it all ! Overall disappointed and the spa area it’s quite small and lacks loungers to chill on

Wow! This place is one of the best hotels I have ever had the pleasure of staying at. The staff are impeccable. On so many occasions nowadays, the hospitality industry is let down by poor staff with poor customer service skills. This place sets the standards for all hotels. Food is great, rooms are great and the facilities in and around the hotel are fantastic. Will be returning again and again.
