The staff were nice the reception area was lovely the garden at the back was really nice. Then I go to my room to find the filthiest carpet I have ever seen the I see I have a double bed when I paid for a queen mould round the windows and they looked like they hadn’t been cleaned in years and if that wasn't bad enough a black bug ran across my bed I was furious went to complain and ask for another room only to be told they don’t even do queen beds at the hotel they have no other rooms left and someone will come and vac the bug up what an absolute joke I booked four rooms for my guests for my birthday and they were all filthy I certainly will not be going back

Avoid at all costs
Hotel smells musty from entering the door. Greeted by leftovers from room service outside the door of a room a few doors away that was still there the following day. The room had a blood stain on the carpet as you cross the threshold. The toilet didnt flush and no hot water at 7am. Didn't want to chance the breakfast. Young girl on reception with a very painful looking black eye totalled 3 staff members we saw during our stay. The first being the receptionist on arrival who was smoking by the front door. I was really looking forward to my stay a this 'spa' hotel. Shocking is the only word i can use

The Mollington Banastre is a once-grand property in sore need of renovation in some areas. The reception, and downstairs areas were in good order, but the bedroom we stayed in was scruffy! It was a pet-friendly room, so I didn't expect it to be plushly furnished, but I also didn't expect the curtains to be in tatters! On the flip side, the breakfast was good and the staff were pleasant and welcoming. At £100/night on average, plus a per surcharge of £15, it was a bit steep!

We stayed at this hotel for our trip to Chester zoo and the location is great for the zoo. Check in was easy despite our late arrival. However, as per other reviews the hotel is quite old and could do with being revamped. When we woke up Saturday morning we unfortunately didn’t have an hot water for a shower. The spa / pool also looks like it needs some tlc. The walls were quite thin that we could hear people at 2am returning home and coughing next door. However, for the price we paid for the two nights we couldn’t argue too much.

Since my comments yesterday, we were moved to a better room, Room 6. This was a lot better than 14. Still right hand curtain ripped, and bed valance also ripped. Carpets stained. Again bed was uncomfortable you can feel the springs. Had a good breakfast yesterday for £10, should have pre ordered scrambled egg, but it was ok. Think the whole place generally in need of a refurbishment if they want to compete with the Holiday Inn Express and Premier Inns of this world. Once again unable to add photos on this app !!

Nice, just tired...
Had a family suite for one night to stay with my 2 boys. The hotel was probably once a thriving, quite impressive hotel however it was let down by being very (very!) over-due a refit! I have no particular complaints as it was very clean (other than the mugs in the room looked like noone had washed them since the last guests!), just very tired. The pool area was good. Nice large pool with a childrens section.
