Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Lovely penthouse. Stylish, comfortable and clean
Just stunning. We stayed for one night for a a friend’s birthday. It was spotless and beautifully decorated. Car parking directly opposite for a reasonable price. Very close to great bars and restaurants and the city centre. Had a very comfortable night’s sleep. Only downside is no lift and on the top floor which was fine for us but those with mobility difficulties may need to consider.

Amazing place but not for 5 people
Penthouse number 2, Unfortunately this accommodation is not suitable for a party of five adults which we were. The comfortable seating area is very small and whilst there are other harder seats it was difficult to fit those in and really when paying for a place as nice as this, being able to relax and have a drink before going out to dinner was a big part of the break. Furthermore, the futon on the mezzanine is not comfy, very hard and for 4 nights certainly not fit for purpose. I appreciate that it was originally broken and that was fixed whilst we were there but even then, it was too hard to sleep on as an adult. It is a really beautiful place and the location is amazing, it really is worth it for a smaller party, (4 would be ideal if they can sort the seating). The kitchen is well stocked and has everything you could need. The WiFi was intermittent throughout our stay. Check in/out was easy. Hairdryer is available and the bathroom has nice toiletries. It is a shame that the points above took away from what is a beautiful place to stay.

5 Star Luxury Apartment - little gem
Booked a last minute night away on bank hol Sunday here for 4 friends. Absolutely amazing. There was not one fault To pick. Just wow! Originally from Cheshire and visit Chester at least 5-6 times a year for a weekend stay, so stayed at various places, but this apartment just tops them all. We will 100% be booking this apartment with Janice if available on each trip we take. Immaculately presented, every little detail thought of. Fresh milk in the fridge on arrival. Clean fresh towels, tea and coffee, biscuits, fresh bed linen. Shower gels and shampoo and conditioner. Felt really safe and secure and in an ideal location. 2-5 minute walk to hickory’s and the river, 2-3 minute walk to centre with all the bars, restaurants and shops. I cannot thank you enough! Just beautiful!

Luxurious, relaxing and such a good location
Such a fabulous development. The owner's have done an amazing job and the Penthouse was amazing. The location is excellent and we will now stay here every time we visit Chester and are telling our family and friends to. The homemade cake was very welcoming. The standard of these apartments shows a real passion from the owners. Cliff & Carolyn Harker

Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Stunning penthouse, everything you need at hand, and we even had a cake as a welcome gift. Coded doors front and back, felt very safe. Would definitely recommend this over a hotel stay. Parking is opposite for a small fee

Wonderful Apartment
We stayed in the apartments over the bank holiday. What a wonderful find! From the moment we walked in to find home made lemon cake and coffee to when we left we had a great time. Thoroughly clean and excellent facilities and high end towels and toiletries make the stay even more enjoyable. We used the car park just opposite which we thought was good value and the attendant very friendly and helpful with advice too. Lots of good restaurants within a few minutes walk and centrally located. The access on arrival was good and the owner was quick with a request by text. Cannot think of any negatives. Well done!

Wonderful Historic Penthouse Inside the City Walls
The Penthouse was a wonderful place to use as our base in Chester and Wales. It is just as described on Travelocity. A thoughtful renovation has been done of the historic church, with very good quality finishes. The original beams show throughout the unit... and you can even follow them through the wall, into the hallway! Our unit had a full kitchen, living room, two bedrooms (one with a queen, and one with two twins), and a loft area (with a desk and futon). When we arrived, Janice had homemade cupcakes for us (wonderful!), and we had tea & coffee, with fresh milk in the fridge. The unit has no air conditioning, and we arrived on a fairly warm August day. But the unit had skylights that raised at the touch of a button, which combined with low windows that could be opened, created a wonderful draft... it was downright cool in the room! The unit is within one block of the old city wall, which makes for a wonderful walk (it's about an hour walk... not the 30 minutes stated in brochure). The condo is also about one block from the downtown area of Chester, which is a great place to stroll around and shop. We had a great meal at The Opera Grill, and used two of the coffee shops on the nearby main street for Breakfast both mornings. We were able to use on street parking both nites/days, and were given a special parking pass by the owner. Apparently there is a parking garage nearby, but we never had to use it... spaces were available on the street in front of the building. A wonderfully refreshing stay!

Fantastic Find!
To say my hubby is 'particular' is a massive understatement so it was with some trepidation I booked an apartment in Chester rather than a certain rather swanky hotel up the road. However, I needn't have worried: everything about The Chapel was perfect for our family weekend away! The location was perfect - central but peaceful; the decor was faultless (my son even had a brand new swanky cream leather sofa bed at his disposal which, he said, was very comfortable) the apartment was extremely well stocked with essentials - even coffee, tea, sugar, biscuits and fresh milk were provided by the lovely Janice. Communication was perfect and Janice was extremely helpful in every respect. It is an absolute gem of a holiday rental and I sincerely hope that others enjoy (and respect!!) it as much as we did!! Unfortunately we couldn't find a pen so didn't leave a comment in the visitors book ☹️. Hope this makes up for it! PS - also recommend Chester Races for a fun family day out and Moules a Go Go for great food & cocktails in a fun relaxed atmosphere.

Perfect accommodation in a prime location
This penthouse is absolutely brilliant, beautiful décor, absolutely spotless and a stone's throw away from shops, restaurants and bars and a ten minute walk away from the race course. Janice (the owner) is a very friendly and helpful lady. She even posted some of our children's clothing items we left behind back to us at her own cost! Our family had a fantastic stay and we would definitely love to go back in the future. Perfect weekend getaway!!
