The Mill is in a good location about a ten minute walk from the centre of Chester. It is comfortable, clean, and there is a good breakfast. Nice to watch the ducks in the canal over breakfast too. The room was a good size with a comfortable bed. There is a good sized car park. Overall a nice place to stay if visiting Chester.

DISAPPOINTED!
Avoid room 341 or any in that line.Stayed here before: love the location; great pool and gym; plentiful breakfast; good staff; good pub. HOWEVER, why they put 2 adults for 6 nights in a completely inadequate room is beyond me. We booked a king bed double room. That was no king bed. They said it was a junior king, whatever that is. The bathroom was ridiculous. Miniscule sink, no outlet, no towel bar, no shelf for toiletries or toothbrush. Had to store things on the floor!. One crappy desk chair. We had to sidle by each other in the room. Maybe ok for a single person for a night. Asked for upgrade but said they were fully booked. Yet I saw availability on line. EVERY OTHER ROOM AROUND US WAS FINE!

Weekend away
Great weekend break away. Breakfast in the morning was spot on, great service by all members of staff. Use of the swimming pool and jacuzzi etc were included too which was nice. Only things that let it down slightly is that our room (311) was right by the lift, so we heard that every time it went up and down. Also the WiFi seemed very patchy and did cut out from time to time. Other than that couldn't fault it at all.

The location is a little tricky so do not rely on Google maps. It is on a very pretty canal and the breakfast looks out over this also. It was hard to control the temperature in the room, but given the time of year it was fine.
