to get started.

We like the location very much. There was a great butcher just down the street, as well as a grocery store. We love the pub that was in the hotel. They were very helpful for getting us a cab to get to our narrow boat that we were renting for a week.

Jim, Canada

We were going canal boating with Black Prince. This was a 1/4 mile walk from the train station. The hotel paid for the cab to the marina. Great food within the hotel and at the Bistro next door. Very friendly staff.

Arnold, United States of America

Pleasant and helpful staff. Food excellent and value for money, both evening meal and breakfast. Room clean and comfortable. Would stay again and recommend to others.

Marilyn, United Kingdom

Friendly reception and good food, rooms are large and the location is good

David, United Kingdom

The hotel looked beautiful inside and all the staff were the nicest I've ever met in any hotel or holiday place. They were helpful, happy and polite. I give the staff and the look of the inside of the hotel 10/10 . Not including the bedroom!

Wendy, United Kingdom

The location with a bus stop almost directly outside and the station a few minutes walk away. The ground level of the hotel was vastly improved upon when we visited several years previously with a comfortable bar area/lounge. The food in the restaurant was very good and good value.

Peter, United Kingdom

Location is excellent- just a brief walk to railway. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Met a lovely couple from Cornwall who have been staying at the Hand at least every other month for years! That loyalty speaks in shouts!

Jane, United States of America

History Ambiance.Proximity to places of interest. Very friendly staff.

Jenny, United Kingdom

We stayed at the Hand prior to a narrow boat trip from the marina at Chirk. We were provided a place to store our bags after checkout prior to our report time at the marina. The Hand staff arranged our transport to the marina when it was time. After our narrow boat trip we had a few hours to spend in Chirk prior to our train. The hand staff generously allowed us to store our bags as we wondered about town and lunched at the Hand. Frank and Lou took very good care of us and our traveling partners.

Chris, United States of America

The location is great. Chirk is a lovely village near Thomas Telford's two magnificent aqueducts.
