Too hot.

Oliwia Couples - 5/8/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Service was ok and staff friendly so seemed like a good start, however when we entered our room it was like walking straight into the sun it was so hot, even opening a window didn’t work, this made the stay uncomfortable to say the least, made even worse by the room service not working so we couldn’t even order a drink….. Also, the Decor seemed like it never left the 90’s. Breakfast was great though

Hotel receptionist was warm, friendly and very helpful along with the Bar Staff. The hotel lounge, bar and bedroom excellent, very clean and easy to move around even for a wheelchair Unfortunately the one part that really let the hotel down was the evening dinner after waiting quite some time to be served the meal was luke warm and a surprise in the variation on what we ordered

Exceeded expectations

S A. Friends - 5/2/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

This was a first visit to this hotel. From the time we arrived until the time we left customer service was exceptional. In particular the receptionist Stephanie was professional kind and sympathetic to our needs. She even triumphed in finding a valuable possession I had lost unknowingly. Our room was spacious and warm with daily room service. The fact the decor is a little dated did not deter from our enjoyment. We were also able to make use of the Leisure facilities which made our stay more relaxing. We found meals in the restaurant to be delicious and the breakfasts offered everything you could desire including provision for vegans. There is a relaxing aura in the bar area . There is a bus service minutes from the hotel directly into the city centre or it is a short drive. There is also a lovely walk along the canal from the hotel into the city centre. We will definitely be returning to this hotel.

Hi Simon, We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Mercure Chester Abbots Well Hotel, thanks also for specifically mentioning Steph - I know she will be delighted to have been able to help and I will of course ensure she is suitably rewarded. It is always a pleasure to receive positive feedback. I will share your comments with our team.

Good Location for visiting Chester, friendly hotel.

Rachel D. Couples - 5/1/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

We had a lovely time thank you. The check in was very good with friendly staff. Room was lovely and close to reception which we liked. We had dinner and breakfast on our two day stay. The standard and presentation of the food was excellent. Only criticism would be the speed with which our wine was delivered. Breakfast was excellent with an amazing choice and some lovely extras like a smoothie. Staff were all helpful and we had a good sleep both nights. The hotel is located very close to a Chester park and ride, so we used that to visit Chester. Couldn’t have been easier. I would recommend instead of paying expensive parking fees. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Hi Rachel, We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Mercure Chester Abbots Well Hotel thanks so much for taking the time to share your feedback.

Good stay: short but nice

David H. Business - 4/27/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

I only stayed for a night but the staff were welcoming. The room was a good size with a comfortable bed and it was very quiet which for me is always a bonus. The bar area was a good size and not over-crowded. The breakfast the following morning was excellent - nice spacious dining area in the Brasserie and an excellent choice of breakfast cereals and hot food.

Enjoyed our stsy

Andrea W. Friends - 4/26/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Great venue for daughters hen do. The rooms were clean but in need of a bit of a make over as wallpaper was coming off the walls. But overall good value for money. Fab leisure facilities though. Also the best breakfast menu I’ve ever experienced and this alone would entice me back to this hotel

COMFORTABLE STAY & CONVENIENT LOCATION

David W. Couples - 4/22/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Pleasant & very helpful check in lady. Room (350) comfortable but quite warm despite turning heating off. Hot water flow from shower and handbasin painfully slow; you couldn't have had a bath because it would have been cold by the time the bath filled. Brasserie was closed (problem in the kitchen/lack of staff/competing with a wedding?) but we had a very pleasant burger each in the bar - good quality. Friendly and helpful bar staff (Ayo). Comfortable night's sleep. Excellent breakfast everyday; well cooked & nicely presented. lots of choice. Coffee also excellent. Very helpful & friendly chef (Gwill). Same for stand in chef on the Wednesday. Restaurant manager (Sue) extremely helpful, made us feel very welcome. In fact virtually all the staff were great. Dinner in Brasserie on Monday night was most enjoyable. Well cooked meal & friendly staff. Bedroom cleaned well (Richard) - also served in the bar. We used to catch the Park & Ride bus to go into Chester £2 per person return. 5 minute walk from the hotel, bus every 15 minutes. One minor irritation was that one member of the bar staff asked if I had had credit clearance from Reception whenever I ordered a first drink from the bar to bill to my room. Surely there should be a note on the system to that effect? I didn't appreciate being questioned in that way. If you fancy a change of location for dinner both the Cheshire Cat and the Ring o' Bells 1/2 a mile walker very good. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would return. But for the issues noted above I would have scored an 8.

Hi David, We very much appreciate your comments regarding your stay at the Mercure Chester Abbots Well Hotel thank you for mentioning so many of the team who helped to make your stay all the more enjoyable. Thanks also for the feedback regarding drinks service, our system does give this information so I will pick up with the team to ensure our service is slicker and reduces the frustration that you have mentioned. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one. Sincerely, Richard General Manager

Clean but tired

Sarah S 4/19/2022 TripAdvisor review

Generally satisfied. We felt that the hotel was looking tired internally with a refurbishment overdue. Breakfast was fine but the positioning of the TV in the room was too low. Swimming pool area required a major overhaul.

Hi Sarah, Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Whilst I am pleased you were generally satisfied, naturally this is not the experience we are striving for. We are shortly undertaking a soft refurbishment of all our bedrooms, I hope we are able to welcome you back again in the future to restore your faith in us. Regards, Richard General Manager

Very nice hotel with some minor issues

scotty4384 4/13/2022 TripAdvisor review

Very nice hotel but had some minor issues. The lights that were controlled by the dimmer switch were buzzing when switched on, one of the control switches for the dimmer switch came off in my hand, . The toilet had a slight problem flushing in some cases it too about 4 attempts to flush properly. Other than that was very nice

Hi Scotty4384, Thanks so much for sharing feedback of your recent stay. I am pleased you enjoyed your time and thanks for telling us what could have been improved. Given your relative anonymity it is difficult for me to see which room your stayed in, to help us make the search easier, I would really appreciate it if you would get in touch to let us know (unless you reported it while you were here)!. I hope we can welcome you back very soon. Regards, Richard General Manager
