Portakabins connected together. Good value for money as a functional stopover. Gym equipment very dated.

Great for a visit to Chester.

The room and inside of the hotel were fab. It was very comfortable and clean. Don’t be put off by a dated exterior. The inside is lovely, staff were friendly and helpful, breakfast buffet was good quality - no complaints. The park and ride is right next door for an easy trip into Chester. We had a happy stay.

Rooms allocated were great, they went above and beyond to make sure our family of seven were suitably accommodated, with the reception staff extremely welcoming and helpful.
