Beautiful location and excellent service with high quality dinner and service. The only negative aspect is the hotel was advertised as breakfast included with hotels.com and upon check in we were advised at the front desk it was room only. So rather disappointed.

The room was comfortable and spacious with all the necessary amenities. The pool area is clean and has a lovely modern, spa feel. A great stay and will return!

Only recommend one night stay. Poor.

Our experience was far from satisfactory at Rowton Hall and Spa. The service was very poor, on our first morning for breakfast we were pointed to a table and told ,"Sit there". The reception staff seemed to be the only team who really cared and tried to please the customers. The wall papers were poorly hung and peeling off. The whole building was just in need of some TLC. How it has obtained 4 stars is beyond me. The food in the restaurant was miniscule. It would do at a push for one night stays. Unfortunately we were there for ten and were glad when we left.

One night stay following a day at Chester Zoo. Relaxing to have a swim/sauna after walking round for several hours. Good bar food -enjoyed my steak ciabatta which arrived speedily despite a school prom being held in another room at the time, staff remained pleasant and efficient throughout. Breakfast was excellent, nice continental and light breakfast choices and provided in a light airy room. The gardens are always beautiful to stroll round (this was not my first stay) ,particuarly breathtaking at this time of year when in full bloom..

• I checked in and the room wasn’t ready. • There was a birthday that took up most of the hotel, they were loud in the garden outside my room. I called reception at 22:30 to ask if they could manage it at all. They said it was finishing soon. It finished finally two hours later at around 0:30. • checking out they tried to charge me for the room for a second time. They also added two breakfasts to my bill that I hadn’t had and disputed this with me when I tried to get them taken off the bill.

Very poor think twice about booking!!!!

Booked for a romantic stay to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This should be a 4* hotel at best i would stay at best 2*. This is due to the very poor condition of the room (room 109). I paid £200 for a Master Suite for 1 night stay. While the room looked nice at a 1st glance there were some major issues, Damp on the walls, Mould in the bathroom around the shower, Damaged shower screen and shower, Mould above the window in the bedroom, Broken window openings, Cracked window, Stained carpets, Several mirror units which have been damaged and either taped over or chipped, Bed this has been repaired in 2 different areas (opposite corners) and have not been repaired correctly meaning the bed had a diagonal twist in it YOU DONT EXPECT THIS FROM A 4* HOTEL. Before I arrived i was asked if I wanted to upgrade my room and name my price for the upgrade. The following morning at checkout I went to settle my account and also asked when is the room due to be refurbished and the receptionist was aware of most of the problems What concerns me is they knew about the problems and still put me in there. The breakfast is extremely over priced and you have to ask for things such as butter for the toast, where are the pastries, additional apple juice as it was empty. I waited in bar area for an hour wanting a coffee while my mife was having a massage (something she did enjoy) and when she returned i had to go to the reception to ask is anyone serving drinks, another 30mins
