Lost count of how many times we have visited Chester and stayed at The Recorder House, but it keeps getting better and better. Since last year, some of the rooms have been decorated and they look lovely, there is now a living room for guests to sit and read the papers, and the courtyard has had a makeover and it... More

Had a great nights sleep in a 4 poster room overlooking the river. The helpful hosts prepared an excellent English Breakfast which set us up for the day. Our only regret was not being able... More

Our room was very clean and comfortable, with a 4 poster bed and a wonderfully comfortable mattress. Breakfasts were absolutely delicious. In the lounge... More

Well, we arrived at the hotel after much difficulty trying to find it, however, we phoned the owners and got a new postcode to take us straight into the car park. Location is fantastic, you are literally on the city walls and around 5 minutes away from the main streets of Chester. We checked into our nice room on the... More

Stayed for one night on two occasions. Chester Recorder House is conveniently located and very pleasantly situated. I had a lovely four-poster room over-looking the river, with luxuriant bedding and being nicely furnished. Owners friendly and helpful. A full and great breakfast greets you in the morning - (if a little rushed)... My only minor issue is that, the available... More

located on city walls with good views and ideal for doing the sights. Front rooms overlook the river with constant sound from the weir. Back rooms quiet. Friendly owners, comfortable and quaint individual rooms. More
