Ideal location for a visit to Chester. The staff are brilliant, so helpful, polite and friendly. Rooms are clean, modern and comfortable. The only negative, we ordered breakfast for our room, which came late and with some items missing. But overall a great stay and will definitely go back.

We thought this hotel with free parking was very good value for money. Granted it’s not five star luxury but this is definitely reflected in the price you pay. …

We stayed for 2 nights with a toddler and 2 adults. Our room was a TREK from reception especially after a long drive with luggage which was a really pain, at least 5 minutes of zigzagging through the hotel before arriving at our room. …

We have stayed in many Holiday Inn hotels and they are our first choice when we need to book a night or two away. However this hotel did not meet with our expectations. …

Easy enough to get to, but had problems with the rooms. First room door would not lock so had to be moved. The second room did not have properly working air conditioning or extraction so the room got very hot and moist after a shower. The room also had plenty of cobwebs and extremely stiff windows. The beds and pillows were however very comfy so had a decent sleep.

Nice place. Good bathroom, decent internet, great breakfast, comfy beds, and nice rooms. When I went there were leaks from the ceiling. High price for dinner. At night there is quite a lot of light streaming in. Setting up Smart TV took a while. The person I went with couldn't use their phone it the hotel, although that was sorted. The place is a maze and had some trouble with room service. But enjoyed myself.
