Two piles of sick on the carpet as I entered the pub to access the ‘hotel’. Quite a loud and lively pub until gone 1am on a Sunday night (Mon morn). Not a peaceful stay therefore as the noise is audible from the room I was in. Basic room but tidy, curtains didn’t fully close, shower either no pressure or pressure but too hot, wardrobe but no hangers (??!!).

having stayed here many times this stay was very dissapointing as there was no running water at all, couldnt flush the toilet or have a shower or even have a cup of tea, especially my morning cup, not very happy at all, there was a small notice in the corridor door but nothing from a member of staff to apologize, they could of given us bottled water or some sort of compensation.

disappointed
room was dusty, some parts had not been cleaned for a while, running finger across top of ledge above bedside cupboard for example produced a LOT of dirt .... room also noisy from some fan or central heating system or something .... also our credit card got overcharged by mistake by an additional £100 ! just lucky that we noticed it ! it took 3 x phone calls to get the refund, received no actual apology for the overcharge, all we got was ‘oh, that was the managers fault’ ☹️ not worth £75 for bed only, even for chester ☹️

Very good With 1 MAJOR Downside
We stayed in room 25, it was a clean room in good condition, the rooms are as you would expect an old building to be.. its never going to be a premier inn at that price range!! We had tea and it was good food and drink(for the price) Major Downside however! The university is just up the road and on Thursday night it was karaoke, and I'm not exaggerating when I say it was rammed full of students dancing on the tables where people was eating food hours earlier. This wasn't to bad for us as we are a young couple and was drinking in the bar.. but had we gone to bed early, I'd have been pissed off as its easily heard from the room.

Filthy dirty. Needs complete restoration. Stairs looked they’d never been hoovered. All paint was dirty and grimy. All the chairs in room and bar were badly stained. Bar smelt of dirty school fat. Was advertised as including breakfast. Not the case. But tbh not sorry about that, i couldn’t have eaten there. Room cleaning was non existent. Rating 0 out of 10

Pleasantly surprised.
I read all the bad reviews and was a little concerned about what we would be turning up to. But, we were pleasantly surprised. Yes, the decor was dated, but the pub is 100 years old. The room was small but not a problem for a couple of nights stay, the bed was very clean and comfy. The shower was brilliant. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay again for a weekend break. Thanks for a nice stay.

I arrived about 4.30 to stay the night on my own in my room. There was no TV and when I went to enquire about breakfast times I was informed that they didn't do breakfast.

The way I was treated by staff, told to get get my own brewing stuff from Tesco was shocking, also tried to book a taxi to get to the train station only to be told that the pub is blacklisted by every taxi company in Chester and to find my own! Shocking stay
