It was a chilly and sunless two-day stay in May, but we were warmly welcomed and immediately comfortable in interestingly furnished, clean and spacious rooms, one of which had wonderful views over the swollen river. Breakfast was delicious, adapted without fuss to our requirements, and set us up perfectly for the day. It was a great advantage to step straight... More

We stayed here for two nights in early April and would recommend this B&B. Great breakfasts and very helpful and friendly hosts. The location is superb! Right on the wall so that sightseeing is a breeze. Good pubs for evening meals are close by. Parking was also very good. Our room was very clean and bright. The TV and WiFi... More

We had a lovely couple of days at this gem of a B&B. Pat and Jim were perfect hosts, the room was gorgeous and the breakfasts simply scrumptious. The hotel is on the city walls, ideal for walking everywhere in Chester and with a lovely view of the river. Pat was able to give us some great recommendations for eating... More

What a lovely spot to explore the beautiful city of Chester, located right on the historic walls that encompass the city, we found the hotel completely by chance, but would recommend it to anyone who wants a location that is convenient yet secluded. Easy access to the city centre, and just a short walk to the racecourse, we found it... More

The Recorder is perfect, for general ambience, lovely location and a warm welcome, not to mention the delicious breakfast! We have stayed many times and always look forward to our next stay. Pat and Jim are so friendly and go out of their way to ensure a comfortable and pleasant stay for guests. Jim's breakfasts are out of this world... More

This B & B is an absolute gem, we had a great time. The room was comfortable, spacious & the views from the window looking out to the river were brilliant. The owners are very attentive, nothing too much trouble - a lovely couple. The breakfast menu is varied & any special requests catered for. The location of the hotel... More

I like this B&B. I like it a lot. it's ideal for anyone strange to Chester who doesn't haven't a great sense of direction. This is because its right on the Roman wall of Chester. So if you get lost in Chester u just look for the circular wall and you'll get back to the B&B eventually. The Mrs and... More

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely B&B. We were made very welcome, the breakfasts were really good with plenty of choice and our rooms (we had to move for the third night) very comfortable. The river views were wonderful! The location could not have been better with so many amenities and places of interest within easy walking distance.... More
