The Pied Bull

The Pied Bull

8/10 Good
"Great base to stay in the heart of Chester. This is a very old building so expect sloping floors as it’s part of its history. Stayed twice now, staff are very helpful as will store luggage. The 3pm checking is rigid"

Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa

Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Had a lovely stay. Our room was on the ground floor close to the pool. It wasn't very big but beautifully decorated. Used the pool on the evening which was lovely. We had included dinner in our booking which we had in Palm Court. The food was delicious and the staff were attentive. We had breakfast in there and had the same experience. We had used Tesco vouchers to pay for part of our stay and that was easy to do. We will definitely come back again."

"We were here for a family get together being held not far away, everything went as well as could be - the room was lovely unfortunately there was a problem with the pool so we could not use it. Bar meal was good but quite expensive. Breakfast was okay probably as good as you get for buffet style food."
