From the minute we pulled up in front of the Chester Residence and were greeted until we checked out three days later we were blown away by the exceptional staff and the amazing suite. We were in a one bedroom suite (9-3) that was exceptional. The bedroom and kitchen were nicely laid out with all one would need but it... More

I booked to stay in the owners residence at the chester residence as I was intending to propose to my partner and wanted to ensure that our time away together was special and memorable. After my partner realized we weren't staying in a hostel that I had lead her to believe, we were greeted by my new hero Edd at... More

Arrived here late on Saturday night and we were greeted by warm friendly reception staff even though it was well after midnight! We were taken round to our room or should I say apartment and this place was bigger than my house! A massive big reception lounge, kitchen, 2 bathroom and a massive big bedroom with a huge bed to...

Fantastic apartments with huge living area and comfortable beds. The staff are attentive and provide excellent service. The breakfast menu is more than adequate and the granola sundae although slightly different each day was a delight. Five to ten minute walk to the heart of Edinburgh. My only gripe would be as a smoker there is only the street to... More

My husband and I have just returned from a short stay at one of the Chester Residence's suites (8/3) and it was quite simply amazing. The one-bedroom suite was huge, stylishly appointed and ultra clean. The suites are located in a lovely and peaceful residential type area, but in close proximity to the city centre. The staff are all very... More

Stunning service, utterly well done huge apartments, and again... STUNNING SERVICE AND WELL APPOINTED GREAT APARTMENTS. From laundry service to help with car parking, to helping us order delivery food at 11 at night on a Sunday they were above and beyond the call of duty. The apartments had everything you need and nothing superfluous, which I appreciate. The bar... More

We stayed here when meeting up with family. The large sitting room was perfect for having them all round for tea and coffee. Bedroom was compact with very comfortable bed. Always handy having a kitchen and loved the breakfast being brought to the room

My husband booked this as a surprise for our anniversary and WOW!! It was absolutely beautiful. First impressions were how friendly the staff were and how clean it was. It's very modern and close enough to shops and restaurants although we didn't eat out as didn't want to leave the comfort and luxury of the suite. The jacuzzi was amazing!... More

Just got back from an amazing honeymoon at The Chester Residence! We really can't fault it. We stayed in a penthouse apartment which was simply stunning. We added on the honeymoon package which is such good value for money as well as adding something (well many things) to our honeymoon which wasnt offered by any other hotel. The service was... More

My family stayed here for two nights at the recommendation of Trip Advisor and couldn't be more pleased. The room was clean and modern and close to town. The staff was attentive and informative. I would certainly stay again and refer my friends to stay as well
