The Golden Eagle, Chester

WE had a brilliant short stay in Chester. We visited Liverpool by train and Nantwich by bus. The city centre and plenty of restaurants were all within a few minutes walk. The Golden Eagle was first class. The owner and staff couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. We are already thinking of another stay with them.

Few days away in Chester. The staff were welcoming and friendly, it is a pub so expect some noise. The rooms were clean and had everything needed for a short stay. Great location for all amenities, shops , bars and local history.

Had a fabulous 2 night stay there for a friend’s birthday. The staff were friendly and helpful and excellent value for money. The room was very quaint and comfortable and the price included a fabulous cooked breakfast. Only minutes walk from town so perfect for exploring Chester. Overall a little gem.

The Golden Eagle pub in Chester is a fantastic place to stay close to the centre of the city. The staff were friendly and very helpful, and it was great chatting to Martin, the owner and chef, about the pub and the music scene. There is even a juke box in the retro-style pub. The room was in the same style with pictures, ornaments and a record player and LPs. And had a very comfy bed. The breakfast each morning was pretty good. A great place at a reasonable price. Wonderful.
