Wife and I stayed overnight as I was running in the Chester Half Marathon the following day. Staff were friendly and check in was easy. Rooms comfortable, shower powerful and had a peaceful night's sleep. Breakfast was okay. Car parking next to the hotel was ideal as the race started from the racecourse next to the hotel. More

This was a two night stay at the Express Inn which is on the racecourse, and if like us you get a room over looking the racecourse you will have a great veiw. Chester town as lots to do and see with good restaurants,watering holes and loads of shops. You also have Cheshire Oaks and Chester Zoo near by. More

We booked a family room for a trip the end of April. When we got to the room, the sofa bed wasn't made up neither was there linen to even make the bed up...which I did myself in the end. When I pulled the sofa bed out to make the bed the skirting board had clearly not been dusted in... More

We booked four rooms at this hotel so the family could attend an event at the racecourse. We've stayed a lot recently at the Holiday Inn in Media City so were quite pleased to find there was a Holiday Inn adjacent to the venue. The rooms were quite small, which was really disappointing in comparison to other Holiday Inns. The... More

The HI Express is located directly on the site of the Chester racecourse separated from the course by a car park, which can be used by hotel guests. It is a short walk into the town centre and a narrow path alongside the railway viaduct leads down to the river beyond the course. The hotel rooms are basic with no... More

Nice, big, and quiet room (at the back of the hotel, overlooking the racecourse). Excellent bed and pillows, we only slept really weill, including our 1-year-old baby. Clean and modern bathroom. Very quick and helpful staff. You are right at the centre of the town and you can find good food nearby. The only thing I would complain about is... More

We stayed here for one night in April. The check in was slow, plenty of staff around but only one on reception, only us waiting so not busy, so no reason to wait 5 mins for check in. Room was quite small, had a connecting door. When I sat on the bed settee I thought the women in the next... More

The hotel is just outside the city walls and is only a 10 minute walk into the City Centre. There is free parking which is very useful indeed. The room was basic (what I expected) but comfortable, clean and tidy. The only thing I can criticise was the breakfast. I don't mind a basic breakfast, but I would prefer it... More
