We really enjoyed our stay at the Cheshire. Staff were friendly and helpful. The property was charming and decorated for Christmas. The room had everything we needed. The breakfast spread was surprisingly great, with scrambled eggs, breakfast potatoes, fresh fruit and delicious pastries. We will be back!

Nice hotel, needs better housekeeping
The Hotel is very quaint and on par with Hotel Roanoke for aesthetic purposes; however, the cleanliness was sub par. The bathroom door lock appeared to have been jimmied and left a sharp piece of metal sticking out that bit my thumb as I opened the door- I was concerned the baby would be injured too. The room was spacious enough and the decor was inviting. I loved that each room was named after a British author-we also received a bookmark! I would stay there again, but definitely address housekeeping issues in the beginning instead of at the end- the sink was gross with mold and hair- I couldn’t get water to go down
A cool bear
Bathroom lock damage
You can see the metal pop out
Mold and hair build up
