New year stay
The Hotel is a fabulous stay , staff work hard to make it an exceptional experience around the building it is clean modern and cosy....our room unfortunately was really dated and not great to stay in especially for 3 night's which let our experience down and it would be nice for a refurbishment to take place as some area's we're lovely and modern. With the Hotel busy for new year we didn't address this and the overall experience made up for it .

New Year at The Mill Chester
Stayed over the new year. As always the service we received was excellent. Had breakfast every morning and it was always hot and we were served with a smile. The party night for New Year’s Eve was amazing, along with the food and the service from all of the staff. Thank you all so much.

Comfortable central hotel.
Great hotel for a few days away in Chester. Good room service and very attentive housekeeping who could not do enough for us fair play. Definitely will stay again. Very comfortable hotel.Parking for Hotel.com quests is £12 per night but free for direct bookings with hotel that’s a bit steep but your rooms booked early enough will compensate for that.

The room was great and the breakfast was phenomenal! The bed seemed a bit lumpy but we slept great! The whole building has a medieval charm.

Ok stay. Room was adequate but needed better lighting and bigger single beds. The bathroom was very dated and shower was just a mixer tap style shower with poor water pressure. Breakfast was ok but busy and needed to be better laid out. The gym and spa was very good. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Just needs some refurbishing to make it better.

Room was spacious and had a good size balcony with a view over the canal. Staff were very good.The only downsides were the difficulty in getting to the car park and also, the queue for breakfast. Would stay again though.

Chester - nice weekend away
The hotel was very clean. The staff very helpful, polite and friendly. The beds and pillows were not at all comfortable. They need replacing. The hotel is situated just out of town. The spa was was good and the pool thankfully was heated. Overall, a good stay

Breakfast is the only thing that lets it down a bit, bacon is very fatty and needs improving also possibly more choice required, but this is the only issue we had. We’ve stayed here quite a few times & always enjoy it . Just needs breakfast tweaking a bit!
