The hotel offers amazing rooms done to a very nice standard but on the small side for the price. The service is extremely professional with a personal touch. The location is excellent, perfect for exploring the city center. The dining experience is good but with room for improvement. Overall, a great value for money stay.

The hotel had beautiful attention to detail in the rooms, but the view overlooked a disused building, which wasn't very nice. The service was excellent and lived up to my expectations of the Chester Grosvenor Hotel. The location was perfectly in the centre of the city, surrounded by lovely restaurants and bars. The dining experience was chaotic, with limited breakfast options, and the price for additional cooked items was high. The facilities were well-maintained.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The room was spacious and the bed was super comfy, but the room's decor didn't quite match the pictures on the website. The service was excellent, especially the concierge and porters. The central location was ideal for exploring the city's attractions and dining options. Overall, a luxurious experience with a few minor room decor discrepancies.

The hotel offers very spacious rooms with a very extra large and comfy bed, though it can be a bit noisy at night as they overlook the street. I was delighted with some flowers in the room, reminding me of the elegance of some of the world's most famous hotels in Paris, New York, London, and Singapore.

Our stay at the hotel was truly a mix of positive and negative experiences. The room we stayed in was like an oasis of calm, beautifully decorated with luxurious touches that made our stay comfortable. However, the dining options were overpriced, and the facilities could use some updating. The location, near Chester, was convenient for exploring the area but settling the bill was a fiasco.

My stay at this hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were beautifully decorated and spacious, with a large comfy bed, but lacking bedside sockets for convenience. While the room took a bit to warm up, once cozy, it was pleasant. The location was ideal for exploring Chester, with easy access to the main city center, but the dining experience left much to be desired with long waiting times for basic service.
