I had a room opposite the bar restaurant where a party went on until 1am. I was repeatedly told incorrect information about when the party was going to stop and I complained!!! I am still waiting for the hotel to contact me. Terrible customer service

The property and decoration condition of the hotel and rooms is excellent. The rooms are spacous, comfortable, quiet and the room servicing is excellent.. The staff throughout the hotel are friendly, helpful and very pleasant to comunicate with. The only negative is the low illumination in the accommodation corridores occationaly causes an optical problem on the short staircases. Taking this comment into consideration, I still score the Chesterr Hotel, Aberdeen overall , ten out of ten. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.

Highly recommend
Lovely room in the more modern part of the building. Although a little dark and had a view of the car park, it was very comfortable with plenty of space and had everything we needed. Tea tray and coffee machine were very good and really appreciated the card and chocolates the hotel left to recognise my birthday. Breakfast was excellent - still plenty of hot buffet and continental options available near end of service and quality was great. Staff were all very welcoming and friendly. I would stay here again and recommend to others.

Lovely hotel. We had afternoon tea, waiter was friendly & tea was great. Hotel check in was straightforward. Room was great although because we were close to front door & connecting door (3 buildings) lots of doors banging when people came into building. Overall great, definitely recommend

Arrived late after dinner and were shown to a dungeon room with a tiny basement window. The room was hot and stuff with no air con. The bed is possibly the most uncomfortable hotel bed I’ve had in a long time. It was cheap and springy with scratchy bedding and thin, useless pillows. Far below the expectations set out in their website. The light on the desk phone also lit up the whole room until 3am when it eventually dulled. There were no robes which is fairly standard in good hotels which is what Chester market themselves to be. I’m 6 months pregnant and what was a last minute get away child free with my husband, on a whim I booked here instead of Mal next door. Instead of having a lovely night away and enjoying a hotel bed and relaxing time I’m leaving with a sore back and neck, tired and grumpy with a stuffy nose. The bathroom was nice. I’m sure there are decent rooms here perhaps with better beds and bedding but certainly not my experience. If a hotel has basement rooms they should really advise guests of this in advance. The bed and bedding and overall room experience falls short on expectations set by this hotel. I would not recommend at all

Lovely welcome by reception however the room they gave me was small and poky and the view from window was a brick wall. I rang them and they changed me I use to use this hotel a lot for business but bedrooms sometime let them down so I moved anyway gave them another try

The Chester is the Goldilocks of hotels...not too much and never too little. The central location makes it ideal for everything Aberdeen has to offer.
