We had a wonderful stay at The Boathouse! The location on the river and just a short walk from the city walls was absolutely perfect. No AC in the midst of a heatwave, but the open windows cooled the room down quite a bit. We loved the boathouse decor and our room felt so comfy and cozy. Staff were great and helpful. Breakfast was great and included our choice of a hot meal. It was also great to be able to keep our car there for a few hours after check out to spend some more time exploring the city. Chester is so beautiful!

Great location on the river. Easy walk to the town center.

Lovely room, great shower and excellent food. Perfect for a nights stay. We also loved the walk along the river.

Perfect stay for our wkd in Chester. Beautiful view of the river from our room. From the staff to the room and our lovely breakfast I would definitely return.

Excellent staff. Very clean and comfortable room. Staff friendly and helpful. Second visit, we will come back again.

Unfortunately, our first evening meal really set the tone for the stay. Our food arrived very late, despite us ordering before several other tables who were all served first. When the meal finally arrived, it was very poor and looked rushed together. A discount was offered, but that wasn’t really the issue — the wait was simply far too long. In the end, we chose to eat elsewhere afterwards. The room itself was nice enough, but the shower pressure was extremely weak and there was mould around the shower unit. There was also noise outside late at night from someone working on the roof, which didn’t help, although I appreciate that may not have been avoidable. On checkout, I spoke to a member of the restaurant staff as nobody else was around. I asked whether everything was settled and if there were any extra charges. He said everything was fine. I even asked if he should check properly, but he simply asked another person having breakfast, who just grunted that it was okay. What disappointed me most was that nobody asked how our stay had been. Had they done so, I would have happily explained politely that the mould needed cleaning and the shower pressure needed improving. Instead, I’ve ended up having to leave this review.

Breakfast was good. Allowed for variations. For example scrambled egg on toast in place of egg benedict. Croissants tray and fruit slices could be replenished when empty more frequently. Rated this stay as 9/10. If breakfast was 100% replenished i would rate as 10/ 10 Location fabulous. - short walk 10 mins through park to get to town Clealiness of room and room amenities excellent. Staff friendliness and quality of service excellent. Security of car park excellent As mentioned overall rating 9.5 / 10 Would stay again Would recommend to others

It’s in a great location in the centre of Chester, right on the riverside. Beautiful views. Friendly staff. Clean and modern room with an incredibly designed bathroom. Would definitely visit again!

Always enjoy our stays at the boathouse as it's nice and quiet and fantastic views of the river Dee

Room clean Staff pleasant

Really beautiful location, very friendly and helpful staff, rooms have an amazing view and comfy bed. Really spacious bathroom for just their standard size room, and really powerful shower. The only slight disadvantage is that the room had no heating on but was very warm somehow, so we had to sleep with the windows open. The breakfast had a good selection of choices, and fresh eggs.

We had a nice 4 night stay here. It’s a lovely motel. The breakfasts are delicious and a big plus! The complimentary waters, tea, hot chocolate and cookies are also nice. A mini fridge would be a nice addition. The bathroom is big with a very comfortable shower. It’s a little further from the town center (an easy walk) but the river area is very peaceful. All of the staff were wonderful!

Great place to stay. Wonderful surroundings. Staff really lovely and welcoming. Good breakfast.
