Grosvenor Place Guest House, hotel in Chester

Located in the heart of Chester, the Grosvenor Place Guest House offers free WiFi. Within the city walls, this Georgian townhouse is just a 10-minute walk from Chester Racecourse.

I had a wonderful stay here. Alison and David are lovely people, very welcoming and friendly. The room was comfortable and very clean. It's directly across from a pub and it was a hot night so I slept with the window open, even so, the noise wasn't bad, and I slept fine. (I can imagine a weekend might be a bit more rowdy, so if that would bother you, it's something to keep in mind. Maybe get a room with the window facing the juxtaposed street.) A great, powerful fan was provided which I really appreciated, and the window in the room (I stayed in the upstairs double) is nice and big. Room is well appointed, lots of natural light, lovely tea station with fresh milk provided, and the location (just a few steps from Bridge Street and lots of great places to eat) can't be beat. It's terrific place to stay, and I would definitely stay again next time I'm in Chester.

The Pheasant Inn, hotel in Chester

In a peaceful corner of rural Cheshire, The Pheasant Inn offers wonderful views, cozy log fires and a pretty courtyard garden. The inn is in the scenic Peckforton Hills.

The room was clean, tidy, spacious and modern. The only issue i had was the TV signal turned off on the day of check out, which was disappointing but overall the room, breakfast and staff were incredible.

    Great location, short walk to the railway station and city centre, host was helpful and friendly, car park was a little bit of a tight squeeze behind the guesthouse but safe and secure. We would recommend the Ormonde.

    Great location with just a few minutes walk from city centre. Beautiful and spotlessly clean building. Comfortable beds and lovely decor. Nice and quiet. Fabulous breakfast with good quality ingredients. Parking at rear of the building. Super helpful lovely hosts who were quick to answer any queries and gave us directions to go around the one way system to park the car.

    An excellent, quiet boutique hotel with great facilities within walking distance of Chester city centre, where the hosts are very welcoming, friendly and professional. Private parking was an added bonus too. A nice personal touch of a cuppa and home made cake on arrival! Luxurious room and very comfortable bed. Amazing wonderful breakfast with a great choice and using quality ingredients. 10/10 for us for everything. Thank you Dave and Kirsty for a lovely stay, we will be returning.
