2 couples stayed, we all felt the staff were friendly and the pub itself had a nice atmosphere, nice and oldy worldly. A good location for the centre of Chester. The breakfast was really good too but the rooms are poor value, very basic and dated. It would not take much to improve them greatly, better decoration, nicer furnishings, duvet... More

We were very pleased with our stay at the Pied Bull. It has a great position in the historic part of Chester. On top of that the meals were good & there were a great selection of beers on tap. Fast & free wifi was great. Room had the smallest TV we have seen in a hotel but that was... More

The Pied Bull is an old building but this is no excuse for poor decoration (wood chip wallpaper is not antique) and inadequate electrical facilities - ie not enough electrical sockets. The room was cold when we arrived but soon warmed up when the free-standing oil-filled radiator was plugged in. The only other electrical socket was in use for the... More

Good for one night stay, smack in the city centre. Dinner was excellent, well above what we expected. Small and cosy room although a bit dated but it was as expected. Wifi was a bit hit and miss in the room but worked well in the bar. Would stay again if i was staying in Chester, not too expensive and... More

The pub itself has a fascinating history and real depth of character. I would recommend stopping in for a pint, but would not recommend staying unless you are there out of season and it is cheaper. We paid 75 quid a night and it was just not up to standards. The room was too small and very noisy at night... More

My wife and I wanted a nice overnight stay where we could both have a shop/mooch around a very old city, and stay in a nice hotel, have a good meal etc. I booked us into the Pied Bull online. Unfortunately, I couldn't see where to arrange on-site parking (£10 per night), and phoned to arrange this. My booking was... More

This 12th Century Inn is located opposite the cathedral and is very convenient for exploring the whole of Chester city centre. The staff are friendly and the building itself is full of character. However, I believe the guest rooms need some attention, not in terms of the structure as obviously wonky floors and period features are vital in retaining the... More

This pub has its own micro brewery and its award winning Matador ale is well worth a visit. We also tasted Shuffle which completed this lovely sojourn in this historic city centre oasis. Opposite the best cheese shop in Chester. Friendly staff added to the experience.
