My wife and I booked a two night stay at The Abode in mid-May and found the overall experience enjoyable. Our room (315) was smart, clean and a good size, with a small balcony and a wonderful view overlooking the racecourse and towards the Welsh hills. The only real negative comment would be that the small shower screen, if its... More

I stayed her with my boyfriend in March when we had the horrendous snow. The hotel was easy enough to find. The room was lovely with a view over the race course and a balcony although it was a little cold to use. The bathroom had the most enormous shower. The bed was extremely comfortable and room was to a... More

Check in was fast and efficient and I was offered an upgrade for an extra tenner! It was a treat for us so I decided to go for it! (My... More

I stayed at this rather unusual hotel for one night on business. I say unusual because this hotel is entirely oriented to the horse racing crowd. The entrance is tacky with an outside smoking den and cheap chairs, obviously orientated to racing spectators at the race course next door, spoil arrival. Check in was unimpressive but my room was lovely.... More

The Abode has got plenty of presence, ambition and chutzpa; a big, modern, tall column of a hotel situated close to the middle of quaint, old English Chester. The place certainly tries to make a statement and is prepared to stick its neck out a bit. Generous, open reception area and reasonably friendly check-in (perhaps a wee bit haughty and... More
