Crabwall Manor Spa, BW Signature Collection

We have had a lovely stay, and it would only take a few tweaks to make this hotel better. Good: *It's in the perfect location, we took an uber into the centre of Chester for less than £5. *Breakfast was relaxed with a great selection as a buffet service. *Spacious room with all the amenities you need. *Plenty of free parking. *Beautiful grounds and really quiet at night. *Great value for money Needs Improving: *Cleaning standard is average, black mold around the taps in the bathroom that could be easily resolved. *Bathroom floor was desperate for a good mop *Bed wasn't the comfiest as 2 twins fastened together leaving a gap in the middle. *Staffing levels affecting customer service levels, we decided to order room service, took an age to answer the phone and then said could be collected from reception, kind of goes against the point of room service, so we left it, not great for the hotels add on sales if that happens everytime. *No enough bar staff, we ordered food but it was cold and one meal was not what we ordered but too hungry to wait for it to be replaced, apparently fish finger sandwich is identical to fish and chips anyway according to the waitress! Like I said it won't take much for this hotel to raise it's customer service standards to an excellent level, more staff will fix most of the issues, despite everything mentioned we would probably stay again.

This place has much potential but unfortunately lets itself down. Quite tired, needs some investment. Breakfast not great Nice big rooms, one way too hot.

This hotel has friendly staff, but it's starting to feel a bit worn. The mattress in my room was uncomfortable and definitely past its prime. The shower also had really low water pressure. Unfortunately, the food wasn't much better. The evening meal seemed overpriced for the fast-food quality, and my poached eggs at breakfast were hard-boiled. It's a shame, as the basics need some attention for this place to be worth the price.

The upgrade to a junior suite was a waste of money. The room was in poor condition - room 5. The carpets were stained; the sink was cracked; as was the shower tray. The shower had missing grout and was in poor condition. Generally the room was old and in need of a refurbishment. The room was not serviced properly - bed not made and toilet rolls not restocked. The only good thing was the sheets and towels were clean. The he breakfast was poor and not in any way geared for a healthy lifestyle. A real lack of options and no natural yoghurt or fresh berries. Staff were friendly. Gym was good. Other than those few redeeming features, this hotel needs a complete overall.

It was tremendous stay no problems at all what so ever cant fault them weve even booked our wedding here

Desperately needs some tlc! Entrance looks great, reception looks like staff check in, first impressions slowly deteriorated. Room smelt of smoke, second room better but no hand wash, no milk, no frills!! Breakfast fully self serv. not good value! Pool etc ok. Won’t be going back.

Hello, Myself and my friend booked a 2 night stay with ******* booking via *******. We booked a 4* as we expected a certain standard. When we arrived, we were shocked at the sullenness of the receptionist, Nicky. No smile, no greeting and only answering questions we asked. The room. We went to our room and below is a list of the discrace that followed: 1. I had requested twin bed and when we separated them, below was so much dirt, wrappers and fluff it was apparent it had not been vacumed for months. 2. The 2 lamp shades had cobwebs completing covering them. Andy the manager came and verified this. 3. The dust behind the bedsides had mildrew growing on it. It had not been dusted for months. 4.The bathroom drain system was not working so within 2 minutes of taking a shower, the bathroom was flooded. 5. The fan in the bathroom did not work. 6. The mug on the tea tray was chipped and cracked. 7. Bedside phone disappeared whilst we were out the first day. When this came up in conversation with the manager, he said " that was me, the room next door needed a phone so I came into your room and took your phone. What a disgrace. 8. The corridors had debris and rubbish from the day we arrived to the day we left. No cleaning or vacuuming had taken place. There is not enough space to give comprehensive details but would strongly advise against booking this hotel. It is not even a 1*

Hotel was fine location wise for chester. Hotel room hadn't been hoovered and no t bags. We did complain but our issues weren't sorted during our stay. Check in was interesting as girl on reception didn't know if our room was ready.This was 6pm when we arrived. Thought this was strange when you can check in from 3pm. Breakfast was fine. The spa facilities needed upgrading and repairing.

Hotel is a little dated room needed updating worn carpet chipped paint on walls, the spa is really great though really enjoyed that, breakfast was really tasty service was great couldn't fault house keeping.
