Staff were very helpful but I feel they needed more staff as tables outside were left dirty for a period of time. I did email the property twice regarding my birthday weekend no response on both occasions.

The food and staff were lovely very friendly and helpful. The room was adequate for our needs the bed comfy . The only issue I had in the room was the position of the tv.It was on the wall in a wooden case .There was very little room between wall and the bed . So if you get up in the middle of the night you could easily walk into . We slept with the light to avoid this issue

The location was ideal as we were attending an event in centre of Chester. Staff were lovely and helpful. The room we stayed in was decoratively pleasant however the maintenance of the bathroom facilities let down the experience. As we were only staying for one night there was little to be done. The staff took on our comments… hopefully the issues will be resolved for the next guests.
