    Riverside dining experience, Electric vehicle charging stations, Close to Chester Zoo

    Misleading room view descriptions!!! Noise from surroundings could be bothersome!!! Inconsistent upkeep in facilities necessitates attention!!! It's disappointing when expectations aren't met due to promotional misrepresentations!!!

    spacious room
    amazing shower
    delicious food
    uncleared bathroom bin

    Really enjoyed my stay, especially the lovely big room and that amazing shower! The sun terrace was perfect for relaxing with a view, and I loved spending time on the deck overlooking the river. The bathroom bin wasn't emptied, but it was a minor thing in an otherwise great experience, don’t miss their delicious burgers! 🍔

    great breakfast
    friendly bar staff
    lack of seating
    privacy concerns

    The breakfast options were spot on, especially those eggs benedict—absolutely lovely! Plus, the bar staff were top-notch, serving up a cracking pint of Guinness.

    Although the room was cozy, we felt a bit closed in due to the curtains being drawn. A couple more chairs would’ve come in handy, too.

    picturesque views
    outstanding hospitality
    room temperature
    difficulty regulating

    Beautiful location and friendly service

    I truly enjoyed my stay with its picturesque views along the river and the outstanding hospitality from the staff. The room was exceptionally clean and fitted with amazing blackout curtains for a restful night's sleep. The dining experience was delightful, especially with the range of delicious pub grub that exceeded expectations. One small downside was the room's temperature. it got quite hot, and regulating it proved difficult.

    riverside dining
    cozy atmosphere

    cozy, cozy, cozy

    I was completely charmed by the warm, welcoming atmosphere from the moment I arrived. The riverside dining experience was immaculate—enjoying breakfast while gazing at the serene River Dee really set the tone for my day. Plus, the themed decor gave the whole place a fun, nautical vibe that I absolutely loved!

    can recommend 😊❤️
