Decent hotel in brilliant location. Bedroom very comfortable but bathroom perhaps in need of attention particularly shower door which leaked quite heavily onto bathroom floor and shower attachments which were coming off the wall!

Friendly staff throughout the time of our stay. Rooms and public areas clean. Ideal location for exploring the city centre from the bus or train station. Shopping, eating and drinking around the locality provided lots of choices within a few minutes walk. A comfortable room, a little tired and worn around the edges but, it's an original period building which adds to the character and the Standard King Room was a great size plus the addition of a drinking water fountain in the corridor was an unexpected bonus for me. Only 2 drawbacks: the bath isn't easy to step out of due to not having a handrail on the short end of the wall at the opposite end to the shower head. The fixed shower screen rendered the grab rail on the outer side of the bath useless. I have back and cervical spine issues which means I have a weakness to the left side of my body, unable to balance well and being able to grip with my left hand. Not being able to get fresh air into the room overnight as not even the smallest window could be open just an inch or two. I have fresh air in my bedroom spring, summer and winter as a too dry atmosphere impacts sinus problems and my asthma. Not major issues for most people, but it meant I awoke several times during the night. Lighting positioning in the bathroom and bedroom for applying makeup could be improved above the mirrors. Comfortable beds and pillows plus a nice weighty duvet set - perfect 👌

Hotel is in a great location, very central and the staff were helpful and friendly. The room was clean, we booked king size and the bed was very comfortable. Air conditioning unit not very powerful although a desk top fan was provided which we needed as the windows are sealed shut and it was warm weather. The bathroom is in desperate need of maintenance . Shower fitting is hanging from the wall, extractor fan not working, shower water not draining away - drain is obviously blocked. Breakfast sadly mediocre, no seasonal fruit or yogurt provided (despite being on the menu). So I asked for some and the waitress went to see if they had any - just a watermelon was sliced up and served. Coffee was not nice, it was weak and tasted like cheap instant stuff. The cooked breakfast was nice but no black pudding available despite being listed on the menu.

Ideally situated in middle of Chester

This was my latest stay in what has been a number of stopovers in the MacDonald New Blossoms Hotel. It is ideally situated right in the middle of Chester. The staff are always so pleasant. I hope to stay there yet again on my next trip to England’s most underrated city.
