The Queen at Chester Hotel - Handwritten Collection

The Queen at Chester Hotel - Handwritten Collection

8/10 Good
"Firstly, the staff were friendly and helpful. Check in was good. Our room was in the Kings side, a separate part from the main hotel, joined together with a covered walkway. We were on the top floor (7th floor). The lift worked fine, no problems. Our room was basic and clean, but OK, except the two bedside lights didn't work, the bathroom fan didn't work, and the shower took some sorting out to find the correct temperature, the TV was old with only a few channels (this didn't bother us as we came to see Chester, not watch TV). The bed was spotless and comfortable. It had air conditioning but we never tried it. The breakfast was good with a buffet style offering cooked full English or cereal etc. There is a large car park at the side / rear of the hotel, and it cost us £30 for 48 hours."

"What a fantastic place to stay in the heart of Chester. The old historic building is full of all the period features which is lovely to see and all in fantastic condition. All the staff are very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was included in our stay and it was amazing fresh coffee and all you could expect in a full English breakfast to start your day. Thank you too all the team made our stay relaxed and comfortable. Will defiantly be staying here again."

"Lovely stay for 5 nights. Staff very friendly and helpful. Hot breakfast items were served hot! Very welcome. We had a large room very spacious. Only thing that spoilt it for us in our room - poor mobile and poor WiFi in the corner by the bed. Would recommend"
