Inn The Boathouse Inn & Riverside Rooms

21 The Groves, Chester, Cheshire, Chester, CH1 1SD, United Kingdom –

Lock in a great price for The Boathouse Inn & Riverside Rooms – rated 8.9 by recent guests!

to get started.

We loved our stay at The Boathouse Inn. The room was very clean and updated. The location was perfect, close to the walls to assess the main streets.

Jack, United States of America

The room was spacious, clean and modern. Breakfast was delicious. Everything was within walking distance- so much to see!!

Patricia, United States of America

Very unique and different and very close to the centre.

Charlotte, United Kingdom

Great location on the river and quiet. I'm sure some of the hotels in the centre of Chester may be a bit noisy. Room was great, staff were great and the food was excellent. We come to Chester regularly as we live in Liverpool. If you're thinking of coming to Chester for the first time then don't leave it too late.

Leslie, United Kingdom

The room was very small but clean and lovely inside. the breakfast wasn’t very good.

Charlotte, United Kingdom

The staff was especially helpful. Very nice people

Joachim, United States of America

The room was nice. But over looked a car park. Staff where very good. Breakfast was very good.

Keith, United Kingdom

The decor of the rooms is lovely, and the location of the property is fantastic.

Abigail, United Kingdom

We have stayed in various places in Chester but for location,value for money, a nice clean apartment, friendly staff plus a plus across the way serving good food and drinks ,what more can you ask for. We would definitely re-book!!

Barry, United Kingdom

Comfy, quiet room. Liked decor. Breakfast good as I’m fussy about my scrambled eggs- not over cooked

Found the WiFi in the rooms wasn’t brilliant and had to keep reconnecting.
The location of the boathouse is brilliant; surroundings are gorgeous and easy to walk into town. The rooms are just like the photos on the website and have everything you need and are nice and quiet.

The plumbing from neighbouring rooms was a little noisy but not enough to ruin your stay.
Lovely clean well maintained rooms. Fantastic view of the river. Friendly staff, excellent breakfasts. Not far from the centre but far enough away to miss the traffic, nice quiet area.

Make sure you check about payment as had to pay on night - doesn’t go through booking.com payments as others do. A little noisy at night but this comes with staying near a pub.
Good location to get to local sites such as Chester zoo. Staff friendly going out of their way to make our stay - for example, out of soya milk in evening so staff ensured there was some for breakfast. Beautiful views from restaurant of river as well as a yummy dinner and breakfast.

I was not impressed with lunch, I ordered a chicken fillet burger, it was overcooked and rather bland and in my opinion not value for money. Smoke alarm made it difficult to get off to sleep, it is placed in the centre of the room and was continuously flashing throughout the night, we did point this out the next day and was told that it is a manufacturer problem and is being addressed.
Location excellent, loved our first floor room, although view was of the back of the pub and carpark not the river, the pub has been renovated since the last time I was there and is tastefully done. Breakfast was really good, couldn't fault it.
