“What stands out here are the outdoor dining spaces - bubble barns and wigwams suggest a playful approach to hospitality. It's conveniently located for those visiting Chester Zoo, but the vibe is more relaxed than a city centre crash pad. The on-site microbrewery adds a touch of local flavour, literally.”

the room was really clean and well sized. great food options were available in the bar and breakfast was excellent. the staff was friendly and there was plenty of parking space.
I booked a room, but it ended up being at the front of the hotel. it overlooked a main road that was busy all night with trucks. the window was single glazed. It did little to keep the noise out.
