The staff were friendly and helpful, the room was fabulous, the buffet breakfast was great.
Everyone from the guy at reception to the fascinating guy on the bar to the lady who showed me in to breakfast, was friendly.
But even more, the feel of the place was unique and special - not least the views of some fabulous Victorian statues from one of the corridors, which gave it a magical, secret garden-ish flavour.
The world needs more of this, as so many places start to feel like people-processing factories.
The fact that I heard people chatting the moment I went in spoke volumes.

Booked a 3 night stay at Queen Hotel in Chester and it didn't disappoint. Beautiful decor throughout the hotel and the room was perfect. Didnt dine at the restaurant but ordered 2 bar meals which the food was plentiful and delicious with an excellent choice. Room service was excellent too as we ordered drinks to the room and also some sandwiches and soup. The breakfast was excellent too. All staff I spoke with were courteous and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I will certainly be booking this hotel again for my next visit to Chester.

Me and my fiancèe loved every minute of our stay here. Very happy with our room and the service was excellent.
We had a main meal there, which was delicious and our breakfast the next day was just as good.
Everything about our experience was very pleasing and we're planning to come back again soon.

We could not get the heating to work so reception did add a heater in our room, the bathroom makeup/shaving mirror light did not work, so I mentioned this to reception on my check out, plus new pillows would be advisable as they were very lumpy, otherwise we had a nice stay. We did not eat in the restaurants.

Check in was quick, staff very friendly. Hotel has been renovated and is very nice. Gave 4/5 because there were a few bits in the room that weren't to the same standard. The mdf on the bathroom door was all peeling away broken wall tissue holder. All little things that can be rectified with a snagging list! Would stay again, was in a great location for us, as we were going to a gig at The Live rooms

Very nice welcoming hotel in a great location. Parking on the doorstep, albeit pay & display rather than private to the hotel but this was fine. Would recommend.

We stayed at The Queen at Chester for one night (Saturday). On first entering the hotel, the reception and lobby made a great impression. They appeared recently refurbished and were clean, modern, and stylish, with gorgeous light fittings and chic décor.

Unfortunately, once we reached our room, it became apparent that the same level of care had not been carried through. Although the room initially looked average, it quickly became clear that it was below expectations. The carpets were stained, the paintwork looked tired, and the bathroom felt grubby, with a stained bath. Most disappointing was the toilet, which wouldn’t flush properly unless the button was held down.

As the hotel is an older building, some noise such as squeaky floorboards and echoes is to be expected. However, we were woken several times by guests returning to their rooms after drunken nights out. The banging, shouting, and antisocial behaviour was the worst part of our stay. Hearing some movement or conversation from neighbouring rooms is understandable, but loud shouting and screaming between midnight and 1am made for an unpleasant night. Initially, I assumed this was a one-off, but after reading other reviews, it seems this has been a recurring issue.

That said, the staff were genuinely lovely and very apologetic when I rang reception. They responded straight away and followed up with a call to check in, which was appreciated.

On a positive note, the bed was comfortable, and as we booked last minute, it was a reasonably priced stay. For those looking for a quick overnight stay in the city, a midweek visit may be a better option.

Very nice hotel, front desk staff very friendly & efficient on check in.
Was a bit of a confusing walk to the lift in the adjacent building, where room was situated the first time locating room, did also give some direction to other guests who were struggling to find lift.
Rooms & beds were very comfortable, with a spacious bathroom with separate bath & shower & soap & shampoo dispensers.
Did inform front desk on check out that the shower door would not close properly, who made a note of it for maintenance to rectify.
The water pressure in shower was poor, so not much spillage through the non closing door.
Didn’t eat in as meeting friends for food, but did see some of the meals on offer & looked very nice.
I would not hesitate in staying again & hopefully try something from the menu as well.
Share your experiences, help others make the right choice!

Can get a bit busy at times but a great pub/restaurant with huge selection of ales and wines coupled with an excellent menu. Highly recommended.
04.12.2017 Colin
We visit here every time we're in Chester. A victim of there own success I would say. 12 months ago this place was choc a block! Overpriced food and cut down on staff which then adds to slow service. Gone down hill I'd say,which is a shame because we like the concept of the place.
12.11.2017 Sam
Fantastic brunch. Lovely, speedy service and tasty good value food. Great spot in a brilliant location.
29.10.2017 Neil
great location. Good selection of beers. Fantastic food. No children are allowed in the pub. Does get very busy especially on race days.

A smashing pub with ale everywhere. The food menu looks interesting too so wish I was hungry but I was not really on this visit. Friendly with a nice atmosphere.
