Clean rooms, comfortable beds. friendly staff, good location and a tasty breakfast. The parking at £20 per night is expensive, but it's a secure underground carpark. The mobile phone signal was also very patchy. However, I would happily stay here again.

Lovely hotel in a fantastic location. The room was a good size and the complimentary upgrade we were given was an added bonus. Breakfast was spot on and the service we received from all of the team was second to none. The views from the restaurant over Chester racecourse are exceptional. Would definitely recommend it if you are planning a visit to Chester and are looking for a bit of luxury at a reasonable price. Just had a second night in the abode, which was even better than the first, the room was £99 which is the same price as the travellodge,but that is where the comparison ends ( not that there is anything wrong with the travellodge but this is just a step up in terms of facilities and luxury). The bed was so comfy that this may just have been the best nights sleep I've ever had. The room was a good size with a big bath and a fantastic shower. We came here for a night out around Chester, but in all honesty I could have quite easily have kicked back and chilled in the room all night it was that nice.

Rooms basic and breakfast poor value for money and the bar was closed at 10.30 on a Saturday night. wouldn't stay there again unless it was very cheap

What an absolute find this was! A brilliant room, immaculately clean and one of the comfiest hotel beds I've ever slept in. Beyond the room, the team were first class. Extra special mention for Imogen in the 5th floor Brasserie who went out of her way to make everything perfect. Also - book breakfast! You will not be disappointed ! All in all, this was a great stay, and I am certain we'll be back again.

Arrived back at hotel after an event, at 22.10.. my partner and his mate ordered drinks whilst myself and my mate went to toilet.. only gad three drinks prior to thos.. for my partner and hos mate to be told we had stumbled to the toilet and after these drinks we were not allowed anymore! My mate went up to var to get another drink.. being told by the young guy with the beard that we we mot allowed any more drinks.. we were staying at this hotel.. spoke to the manager.. who was lovely but stood by her bar staff... we were not allowed anymore drinks.. I write this on 23.27pm.. on.. 22/11/2024.. not drunk.. but extremely disappointed on the bar staff and managerial at the Abode.. sadly wouldn't recommend here.. but hopefully others will be treated fairly..

Very good sized rooms, clean and tidy, typically modern style so a bit soulless. If you book direct you're given preference for free upgrades (which I got). Excellent breakfast, served on the top floor with nice views over Chester. Waiting staff friendly and efficient. Little Roodee car park just a couple of minutes walk away and the city centre is only 5 - 10 minutes walk.

We came from out of town and asked at reception if we could possibly have breakfast and to our delight we could. We both had poached eggs and they were delicious. We even told the girls at the treatment rooms next door and they said they'll give it a try

Always a nice stay at Abode. Rooms are clean and tidy. Breakfast is amazing on top floor. Great view of Chester Racecourse Parking is available underground or across the road at a charge.

We had the best experience, as it was our wedding day we asked to check in early as we was getting married early afternoon. And within 20 minutes of ringing they called back and gave us an upgrade to a bigger suite and was ready to check in immediately and had champagne in our room also. Sadly we couldn't drink it as the now wife is pregnant with our second child. Food was exyand service was just amazing would definitely stay again. Thank you again for making our stay very special

Visited Abode for a friend's birthday lunch. Stunning hotel right next to Chester race course with amazing views across it and beyond to the Welsh mountains. The food was very nice but the portions are pretty small, especially for the high prices. I would recommend this hotel for its design, position and ambience but beware the service charges..10% on everything and that includes each time you go to the bar! The drinks prices are jaw dropping (cheapest bottle of pint grigio was £33 + £3.30 service charge!) and the parking is £12.50! Really lovely place but won't be rushing back ..Strictly for very well lined pockets!

Fantastic hotel and even better location! Rooms were spacious and clean, nice bathrooms. The service was exceptional, we decided to extend our stay at 11pm the night before and they sorted everything out as soon as we asked (kept the same room etc). Breakfast was STUNNING. We paid £14 for both. The view is gorgeous over the racecourse. You have your order taken but everything is included on the menu, and it's unlimited. The food was presented beautifully, and was delicious and great quality. We're coming back again, definitely!

Had the chance to stay at the hotel for a business trip, overall it was a really great stay. Everything is clean and well organized and the room was very comfortable. Breakfast was really good and the gym was a real one. Some things that can be improved : - wifi (terrible signal). Knowing that many of the guests were also there for business, it may be useful to have a strong network. - No free water. We had to pay for the water (even first bottles). Water bottles were outside the traditional drinks and snack basket leading to believe it was part of the package. - staff was very helpful and nice when asked something but not really friendly. The majority of them didn’t greet. They were very concise and almost whispering. Maybe it’s a cultural thing but I like to have warm relationships. They were overall very professional but a small adjustment depending on your interlocutor would be appreciated.

Great overnight stay in hotel overlooking racecourse with secure parking on site. Room had a small balcony with a great view. English breakfast in 5th floor Brasserie was spot on.

I stayed at The Abode, Chester as a last minute city break. The room was great, the staff really helpful and breakfast was really good! It's in a great location, in the centre of Chester with plenty of places to eat and drink within a few minutes walk.

Overall a great hotel for the price. Some areas could do with updating (e.g TV in room is small and old, but we didn’t travel to watch TV so not a big issue). A clean, comfortable hotel with on-site secure parking close the Chester centre (and race course) is the main benefit.

Unfortunately I went here today to have Christmas dinner with my brothers family and mine, we got there at 1:50pm and the table was booked for 2pm. We sat down and starters took over an hour to come out. The starters took an hour to come out and in this time the manager came over complaining he was stressed and he couldn’t cope with it. After that, the food that had been sitting under a heat lamp since we arrived at 1.50, was served at 3.30pm. The server was using his hands, other tables were asking me whether they were supposed to be queue or what. The food was inedible as it has been sitting there so long. Everything was rock hard and cold, this was unacceptable. My son’s food didn’t come out and this was 15 minutes after we started to queue. My son is 2 and was screaming as he was hungry and tired. The manager was hiding in the back at this point while the rest of the staff were trying to serve. The manager messaged later accusing us of lying and saying we had finished our plates, when I had a time stamped photo to prove we didn’t eat anything. It’s entirely ruined our Christmas Day, no Christmas dinner, just snacks when we got home as we had planned for a 3 course meal. Just really disappointed and sad, mostly for my son as we had planned a really nice day and this ruined it. Wouldn’t come back here, especially not for a special event.
