Liked: Cleanliness
Breakfast was good and the staff polite and helpful. The hotel is well located. The Holiday Inn room booking process is poor. A standard room means allocation of either twin or double on arrival, as I discovered on arrival to my room and with no option to change or cancel. Specifically requested a double but allocated a twin for three nights. Chester has many hotels and had I realised this was likely, I would have booked elsewhere. I stay in hotels 45 nights for year and have done for 35 years or so. This is the first time this has happened to me.

Very busy road outside, walls were too thin as could hear next room snoring. Would ask for a room away from main road. Breakfast is good, parking costs £10 per night. Good location to city centre.

The room was ok. In need of a bit of a makeover. Carpet stained in places. Toilet seat seemed to small for toilet and moved when you sat on it. Shower was good. Breakfast available and lots of choice. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Exceptionally clean room
There was a frequent knocking sound, which I think was something to do with the tank that fed the plumbing system, linked to people flushing the toilet I think, seemed go quieter when I shut the bathroom door. The was exceptionally clean and in very good condition. Some biscuits with the brewing up stuff would have been nice.

Great stay
This was my 2nd stay at this hotel. The location is very good. Staff extremely friendly. Good parking though they’ve just introduced a parking charge of £10 per night. Good breakfast included in the stay as well as hot drinks available all day. I’d definitely stay here again.
