The Seven exceeded expectations. The room was spacious, stylish and well appointed. The street was quiet and the parking was a great bonus. Although the staffing is very light touch, we received good communications and a warm welcome.

Anniversary Trip

We have just returned from a lovely long weekend staying at the Seven. From start to finish the service here is fab. The WhatsApp message service is extremely helpful and efficient with any queries you may have. Amy and Tracey were great and super communicative. We stayed in room 6 and it was great. Lovely comfy bed, great big smart telly. Powerful shower and lovely bath too. Grateful to have been supplied with a fan as we had stayed whilst it was unseasonably warm. If you are planning on parking let the hotel know ahead and ask if they are able to reserve a space for you. This was super helpful for us and saved us paying to use any others.

Great room with ideal location

We had a great stay in one of the suite rooms. As others have said, it's a town house that has been converted into a hotel but it's finished to a high standard. Our suite was pretty big for the price and the bed was really comfy and shower is amazing. The host was really welcoming and they responded really quickly to queries we had before the stay. It's nice and quiet, and ideally located about 5 minutes walk from the nearest bars/restaurants and next to a large car park where it's only £8 overnight if you can't get a free car parking space. The rooms are spread out quite well so we didn't hear any other noise over night. I would 100% return next time we visit Chester.

Nice hotel, unusual self check in.

Ive never been to a hotel with no front desk staff. The check in was unusual but easy. Actually, I dont know why more places dont do this. Except, the keypad on the door knob at the room is difficult to operate. The room is very nice and comfortable. Several pubs and restaurants within 4 minutes walking.

Clean room, friendly staff. Very warm room.

The room was clean, staff very helpful before stay, informing me of places I could dine nearby. Unfortunately the room was very hot, I was unable to alter the thermostat. There was a fan in the room, so I presume this is a common complaint.
