The Green Bough Hotel in Chester has a great reputation for high levels of personal service and luxury. Prestigious awards bestowed upon this fine establishment include Hotel of the Year 2005 from England’s Northwest, Most Excellent City Hotel 2004 from Condé Nast Johansens an RAC Gold Ribbon Award for 2005-06 and the Visit Britain Small Hotel of the Year Award for 2006.
The Olive Tree Restaurant is one of Chester’s most renowned dining experiences. Savoy-trained Philip Martin offers a modern British menu that changes daily. After dinner guests can relax in a comfortable couch in the Champagne Bar Lounge.
This Green Bough Hotel is situated close to Chester railway station and is just a short walk from the historic city centre. The property is non-smoking throughout and offers complimentary onsite parking.
I was completely unimpressed with this hotel. The service was poor and the room and en-suite were what you would expect from a mediocre b&b. I feel ripped off.
This is a very classy place, but it doesn’t come cheap unless you are fortunate enough to get one of their special offers. As a treat though, it is an unforgettable experience and would be enough to impress all but the most difficult of people.
The hotel is quite small so you get really personal service here. I would definately recommend this hotel and will return again.
I think the Green Bough is probably one of the best hotels in the UK (and I’ve stayed in quite a few). Be prepared to pay for the privilege though. It’s not cheap, but I would say good value for a special occasion.
