"Average but ok for one night"

A cheap price, reasonable breakfastand a short walk to the town centre. The parking is awful. None on site, when we arrived the nearest car park still a 10 min walk) was full. So we ended up paying £5 to park elsewhere the other side of Chester, moving the car later, and found that only a daily rate available.

"Let down!"

The hotel location was amazing but the hotel is let down by how dated and dirty the carpets are and rooms are dated too. I normally love premier Inn hotels but this one had none of the normal standard of all the other premier Inn I have stayed at. A real let down.

"Maybe just use airbnb"

The staff were absolutely lovely bunch, but seriously the room quality is not up to standard. It is clean, but that is about the only pro I can give you. I paid a price that would have been enough to cover a lovely airbnb room so they even lose the price war which is meant to be their speciality.

"Very good location"

We stayed two nights while in Chester for a friend's birthday. The location is excellent, a five-minute walk from the railway station. There's no parking on site. When we arrived and checked in, we discovered that our rooms were far too hot – and, like most Premier Inns, the windows don't open!! Also the air-con system on the wall seemed to be set up for heating rather than cooling. We also found that there were no phones in the rooms, so we had to go back down to reception. A very sweet and helpful staff member said she thought there was a way to switch the system to air-con, so she came back up with us to have a look. She couldn't work it out either, so she went round the corner to the "control room" and did something to it from there – she said it would take a while to kick in. To be fair, in my room it did start to get cooler and when we came back from our evening out it was fine, but my friends' room stayed very hot and they couldn't sleep properly. When we went down for breakfast in the morning we mentioned it to the new receptionist, who promised to sort it out while we were out for the day, and she obviously managed to do so as it was much cooler on our return. We hadn't booked breakfast in advance, but decided to go for it as it was only £9.50 for the full version – it's £15 in the south of the country! We thought the food was ok but not great – there was only one type of egg (fried), the sausages were a bit undercooked and the potato/cabbage concoction was just odd – and were glad we hadn't paid £7.50 for the Continental breakfast as there were only a few paltry croissants and muffins to choose from, not the array of pastries detailed on the leaflets in our rooms. There were no pieces of fruit either, just fruit salad in a bowl. On scrutinising the menu later, we saw that it was allegedly possible to choose different types of egg, but nobody had told us this. Several of the cups and teapots at the drinks station were not completely clean. On going back to the rooms, I found that my key card had stopped working (and no, it hadn't been next to my phone!) so I had to go back down to reception again. There i waited for almost 10 minutes, pressing the bell, with nobody appearing. Eventually a girl from the breakfast room came out and sorted it. The rooms themselves, apart from the heat issue, were very clean and comfortable. I just wish Premier Inn would revise their the non-opening window policy . . . I understand that they don't want people falling/jumping, but surely it would be possible to have a window where just a small section at the top could be opened? Or have mesh/bars on the outside? It would make the rooms much more comfortable if guests could have fresh air instead of a "piped supply", especially if the hotel is going to arbitrarily declare that winter has begun and therefore limit access to air-con. One more thing - it would be better to have a shower with a detachable hose, rather than a fixed jet, and to put the controls on the wall instead of down on the taps.

"Thank you"

Stayed here on Friday 1 November, from the check in to check out all of the staff are a credit to the hotel. It was my partners birthday and he got a card and a box of chocolates, a lovely touch. The room was clean and a really comfy bed. We had stayed previously at another hotel near the station, it was double the price and the staff were robotic and the room we had was filthy. Will definitely stay at this Premier Inn again and highly recommended.

Hotel description If you want to roam a National Park, or you want to park yourself firmly in ancient Rome, a stay at Premier Inn Hotel Chester City Centre is the perfect break. You're just a stone's throw from Snowdonia, but you're also right at the heart of England's best-preserved Roman city. Smell the flowers at the Royal Horticultural Show at Tatton Park. Or sniff out a bargain wandering through the historic streets of Chester. Get a whiff of some wonderful wildlife at Chester Zoo, and see your horse win by a nose at Chester Races. Then come back for some wonderful aromas of fresh food at our restaurant, and a lovely comfy bed.
