Disappointing

This is no longer Allium, though taken over 2 months before our stay, all the emails from the booking site were still referring toAllium. There was no mention of steep stone steps up to the room, not good for the disabled, especially when wet. There were several problems. The tv remote needed new batteries, we had only half a toilet roll, both were put right quickly when pointed out. Breakfast bought up to the room at the time requested was excellent, muesli, yogurt, fruit, toast and honey. But arriving back late afternoon no one had been in the room. The breakfast dishes were still there and nothing, including the bed had been touched. The pub was lovely and the food very good. The new management of the now Beehive Pub really to get their act together.

Disliked: Staff & service
We travelled to this property late on Saturday night. On arrival, we were shown to our room which was cold. We managed to get some food brought to our room and arranged for breakfast to be delivered by 9am the following morn. A Beatles tribute band was playing until 11pm which we were only warned about on Saturday morning and there was continuous noise throughout the night, with music at 3.47am. We stayed until 10am to wait for our breakfast that didn’t arrive. Totally disappointed with the accommodation which is not called Alium but The Beehive!!!! Not what was expected at all.

Staff were lovely, but our room, although on the surface was very well presented, was slightly disappointing due to rain water leaking through the ceiling and us having cold water when having a shower later on in the day. The pub and hotel had only been open 2 days and we could see that the staff involved in putting the issue right were very helpful and apologetic and we were offered a refund for our stay but this hasn't happened yet. Overall it is a lovely pub/hotel in a beautiful location.

Late arrival so I let myself in using door codes sent via text. All worked as it should do. Excellent room, bathroom and room equipped with a small fridge containing all required for a simple breakfast. As I arrived late and left early I did not see anyone else so can't comment on service other than to say I would certainly use this stop over again.

Midweek break

A really lovely, comfortable boutique room with everything we needed. Warm, cosy and relaxing. With the restaurant being closed on a Monday and Tuesday, this made it more tricky than the norm as there is no front desk. However, contact by email was great and responses were within a couple of hours. Obviously the rest of the week is no problem at all. Would definitely go back and there is a family room too with two twin beds in a small side room! Perfect.

chester weekend

Lovely place, lovely staff and area but noisy in the evening. Poor sound proofing can hear the music in the restaurant from the bedrooms and can hear next door bathroom fan, shower and light switch. Quiet during the night from 11pm when restaurant/bar close.

Bad experience

We booked and paid 3 rooms for our group and when we arrived they just provided 2 rooms and asked us to stay together in 2 rooms. Our driver and tour guide did not have room so they had to book another room at another hotel to stay separately with the rest of group. The hotel ran out of water at 4 am, so our group did not have water to use in the morning. Our guide can not contact to reception. Breakfast was so poor

Lovely Accommodation with Fantastic Restaurant

My stay here was lovely - well priced accommodation with clean and very comfortable room. The restaurant downstairs is lovely as well, with friendly staff and tasty food. When I had a few questions and needed to sort a few of my travel documents and plans out, the staff immediately went above and beyond to help get me sorted, even for things that weren't related to my stay with them.

Lovely hotel. Very clean and comfortable. Continental breakfast in room so no need to rush downstairs for a certain time. Nice and relaxed night away. Would visit again to try out the restaurant as we attended a party away from.the hotel.

Perfect chilled night away

I’ve wanted to eat at the restaurant for a while, so was pleased to get the opportunity to stay and eat too. Food was amazing as expected, but the room was a big plus. Good sized, well equipped, and beautifully decorated, with a large, comfortable bed. Bathroom had bath and shower over, with nice toiletries on hand. The breakfast was served in room, with pastries delivered the night before. The only very small issue was the fridge in the room wasn’t cool enough and the milk had turned, but it didn’t spoil the night away by any means. A perfect little getaway in the Cheshire countryside.
