“The riverside location provides a serene backdrop, and selected rooms include private balconies to better enjoy the view. It seems a convenient, dog-friendly stay near Llangollen, with access to a spa at a sister property. While some aspects appear dated, the architectural details seem to give the place a historic charm.”

Breakfast offered fresh-cooked options like scrambled eggs with salmon. The Sunday roast dinner was exceptional, especially the Lamb Henry.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Chainbridge Hotel enjoys a fabulous location next to the River Dee, offering lovely views, especially from rooms with a balcony, where you might even spot a steam train passing by. The premises feature snug spaces for relaxation right on the river, and the bar area has a cosy atmosphere. While the breakfast offers a decent choice, some guests have noted the absence of certain items like beans or a buffet with yoghurt and fruit. Nevertheless, the spacious rooms and the chance to take a brisk 40-minute canal walk to Llangollen make for a memorable stay.

Riverside Balcony Experience

private balcony friendly staff delicious fish

I found the hotel directly on the river. A private balcony was a great feature. The staff were friendly and efficient. I enjoyed a lovely evening meal that included delicious fish pie.

I noticed tatty signs were sellotaped to the bedroom patio door. This was also true in the restaurant. Paint was flaking off the wall and there was no light on the balcony. The chairs and table looked lost.

adequate stay, but issues noted

small room poor housekeeping

the room offered a pleasant view of the river.

The room was smaller than expected given the price i paid. Water was not provided. housekeepers did not clean thoroughly enough. There were marks on the shower door. communal areas seemed a bit grubby as well.
