As we arrived at check in to the Pied Bull the young lady who checked us in was looking through her computer she suddenly said im just looking at what rooms we have i notice you are on a walking stick and we have you on our second floor room but notice your stick our stairs are not so good they are very old and im looking to get you a lower room. This she did amazingly a room with just 2 steps up i didnt get her name but she was a excellent at her job and pied bull are lucky to have her. Pied Bull is one of Chesters oldest buildings. Its staircase is large and creaky. The bar and restaurant are lovely. The rooms are clean and hotel.is well.looked after. There is a beer garden and the pub brews its own beers. The hotel.is a short walk to numerous restaurants and a short walk to Chester Cathederal and its beautiful grounds. Lots of shopping can be found just a 10 minute stroll away. There are beautiful Roman ruins around the city, the city walls wrap around city and you can walk around them. You can jump off and on a bus City if it is large tour buus shich tells you all dď

Room was clean, we where in room 17, the room could do with some sound proofing around the front door and secondary double glazing inside of the front window, very noisy late at night with music and people at the pub on next door. The breakfast was a little expensive at over £16 per person however the portions size was extremely generous for the money and for those that like thier real ales the pub has its own micro brewery on site. I would recommend this hotel.

We enjoyed our stay in this quirky hotel. Our room was on the top floor, via a set of very uneven stairs (it is very old). Our room was very hot as Chester was experiencing extremely warm weather. We loved the location of the hotel and the room was very clean.

Perfect location at the top of the historic centre, close to the North Tower on the city walls. Very friendly & helpful staff. A short taxi ride from the railway station. We enjoyed our short stay here & wish it could have been longer. Thoroughly recommended.

The bed in the first room I was given had not been changed since the previous guest. I noticed the bed wasn’t in the usual crisp made condition you get in hotels, so pulled the covers back and there were hairs and crumbs in the bed. Told receptionist, she double checked and gave me a different room. Then on the stay was fine. Didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment.

Great, characterful hotel/pub. Breakfasts were excellent and the staff were great. The room itself fine but in a slant. We had to sleep with our head the opposite end of the extremely creaky bed. The shower head was also very low. At 6’, I had to really duck under it. But part of the charm I guess, just could have done with a non creaky bed.
