The hotel is advertised as a 4 Star Luxury Hotel, at the moment it is actually a poor budget Hotel. Positives; Location & Parking Nearby. Negatives; Paid extra for Deluxe room. Badly stained carpets and bed. Dirty room. No toiletries left in bathroom. The bed looked as if someone had already slept in it. Lots of mould on the windows. Dirty sink. No heating in hotel room. Grubby exterior. Grubby Hotel Bar. Reception cover hit or miss. Reception staff need to be more professional and friendly. Hotel needs to close for deep clean and refurbishment. Worst Hotel stay in very long time and no excuse for lack of hygiene.

We have stayed at this hotel many tumes over the past years however i feel this now needs updating. It was not a very nice stay this time as the pillows where flat ,no extra in room or blanket,no water in the room and water machines in the hall not working. No phone to call reception. Hairdryer not working although receptionist told me that i needed to keep my finger on the button. There was no written information at all in the room either or contact number for reception ( i did find this when leaving the room in very small print on the back of the door .Shower gel getting a bit molded . Breakfast used to be served but now self service and cold. Very limited with low fat options

Very disappointed with the hotel. We paid £200 for a room which would of been a better standard in a Hostel! Dirty carpets, dirty bathroom, some sort of gravy stains over the switches. I took pictures to show but wont let me attach on here. I paid for two rooms at £200 each - DISSAPOINTED I wouldnt recommend unless you were paying £50-70 a night because that is the standard of this hotel

The hotel was lacking maintenance, broken and loose fittings throughout the hotel, not very clean in some areas, breakfast was poor. Some self service items had run out. Breakfast order took 25 minutes to arrive, and was incorrect. The facility was quite cheap, and centrally located which was good, but next time I would not choose to have breakfast there.

Wont ever be staying here again, booked a last minute 2 night break to do some Christmas shopping in Chester. Arrived around 11pm and we were greeted by the receptionist and given our room keys. Before we got in to our room, there were 2 dirty glasses left on the windowsill in the hallway, these could have recently been left, but they were still there the next morning. The building is old and has character, so much so that the doors dont fit in their doorcases and they tend to rattle and creak all night long, the door security chain was also broken and didnt work at all. The bed was very comfortable and the room was warm, but it was also dirty. Thick dust all over the sockets and fittings and lightbulbs etc... I struggled to sleep with the numerous air conditioning units directly outside the window buzzing away all night and then we were woken by the sound of pipes clattering away somewhere. The bathroom was very dated and in need of a deep clean, the mirror screws were held in with some earth wire insulation, the towel radiator connector was held together with lots of black insulation tape and the earth cable just hanging out of it. The soap dispenser was dirty and had rust marks around the rim. Got in the shower in the morning and there was no hot water, the water was lukewarm at best and I don't like hot showers at the best of times. I expected more from a supposedly 4 star hotel and was peeved at paying for what felt like contractors accomodation above an old pub.

Absolutely lovely weekend stay in the Blossom hotel, amazing spacious family room with huge comfortable bed. Was very loud at night as the location is near bars/clubs but it’s not the hotels fault it’s just as it’s central location, would highly recommend and would definitely stay again.

Location in central Chester is fabulous. If you like threadbare carpets, cold low pressure showers, intermittent air conditioning, TV with 3 channels that won't turn off and when you complain (very politely) you don't hear anything from the manager despite the promise of being contacted then this is the ideal place to stay. If you love dismal then you will be delighted with this hotel.

Lovely stay, and the staff themselves were great. The lack of staff at breakfast times was the main issue, along with a very poor selection and layout at breakfast. The continental breakfast selection was very poor for the price paid. We would definitely return, but would not have the breakfast again.

Check in was great, staff helpful and kept our luggage safe until we could check in at the correct time. However, the room had a terrible outlook, overlooking a low wall that had public convenience tiles on it, with large holes. We went for a nightcap in the bar, but it had no Baileys and no brandy. Also, the coffee machine was not in operation, although the barman did get us some hot water and coffee sachets, which we didn't pay for as this was avaliable in our room. The hotel is in a fabulous location for shopping and viewing locations, but let down by the above.
