Loved by The Saddle Inn guests
"The Saddle Inn is a Rock Pub/Hotel with band memorabilia everywhere you look, some of the beer pump handles were the necks off guitars."
"We stopped in the 'Megadeth' room, its on the top floor, so quiet, and unlike most family rooms at other hotels has two full size single beds."
"Bed was very very comfortable, lovely pub downstairs, near to everything you need to see in Chester, we will be back , thank you for a wonderful stay"
Located approximately 5 minutes' walk from the 4-star smoke-free The Saddle Inn Chester, guests can quickly reach the Cheshire Military Museum. The inn has an à la carte restaurant serving British cuisine and is situated in the vicinity of Chester Cathedral.
Location
The Chester Roman Gardens is merely 550 metres from the hotel, while Breakout Chester is nestled just 450 metres away. The Saddle Inn Chester is also a short way from such natural sights as the public Grosvenor Park.
Guests might as well visit The Cop, which is about a 20-minute walk away. Chester Racecourse is only 1.4 km away, while Chester train station is situated a mere 1.2 km from the property.
Ye Olde Kings Head bus stop is near this Chester hotel.
Rooms
Each of the 9 rooms is furnished with sound-proofed windows, featuring an iron with ironing board. Bedrooms come with couch beds. A walk-in shower and a separate toilet, along with a hair dryer and complimentary toiletries, are also included in the bathrooms. They offer views of the garden.
Eat & Drink
Guests can relax and have a snack in the lounge bar. It also features a lounge for guests' comfort. Choose from an unlimited choice of Mediterranean dishes at La Fattoria which is within 5 minutes' walk of The Saddle Inn.
Leisure & Business
Entertainment options such as live performances and karaoke are available onsite. Other activities include billiards and darts.
“What strikes me is its unapologetic devotion to rock music, a theme that reverberates from the decor-replica guitars and music memorabilia-to its support of live events, a commitment underscored by its on-site tattoo studio, a bold statement of community and personal expression. I think the à la carte breakfast, with choices like eggs benedict, is worth waking up for, setting the tone for a day exploring Chester, which, being just a short walk away, makes it very convenient. It's a surprisingly engaging place, this inn, not just a stay but an experience.”

the staff were very cute, hospitable, courteous and obliging. lunchtime food included a tasty sandwich with fries and coleslaw. breakfast offered a broad choice, delivered promptly to all guests (it was really good).
the bathroom toilet had tape wrapped around the cistern inlet pipe. a towel underneath to absorb leaking water. ceiling wallpaper in the bathroom was loose. tiles on the bath allowed water to seep behind.

The location is excellent for getting around. (It really made exploring convenient.)
The room showed its age with some clear signs of wear. The bathroom tiles were cracked, and there was mold near the shower. the noise from the bar downstairs went on until very late and made it hard to sleep.

The breakfast buffet offered a wide selection, with fresh pastries and a variety of hot dishes. I found it quite satisfying. The hotel's location allowed easy access to nearby restaurants and shops. I appreciated the convenience. I also noticed the room had two separate sinks. This made getting ready in the morning much easier. I found the complimentary toiletries to be of good quality. They added a nice touch to my stay.
The music from the bar was audible until late in the evening. I heard it slightly in my room.
