Oddfellows Chester Hotel and Apartments

Oddfellows Chester Hotel and Apartments

8/10 Good
"Great stay in a very spacious 2 bed apartment. Thought it was the apartments located at the back of the hotel, but they were located about 7 minutes away. We’re told there was only one car parking space so one car parked in a multi storey. One of us rang before to ask about the nearest car park, we were told but weren’t told they had 50% discounts with 2 in particular, which would have been helpful! When we go to the apartment, there was easy enough room for 2 cars so we could have actually parked both cars there. On check in, I assume it was the same person on the end of the phone who didn’t tell us about the car park, said very little, gave us a map of where to find the accommodation, no verbal directions to tell us where to find it, you know, turn right walk 2 minds and the T take a left….. would have been the polite thing to do I thought. Then where I asked it this towards the river? The reply … yes. Overall we found it very informative and unhelpful to be honest."
