Hotel Soughton Hall (Chester, United Kingdom)

Soughton Hall offers luxury accommodation with elegant and individually styled rooms and suites. Each room or suite is also individually named and each bears its own unique set of features and appointments.

The hotel enjoys a long and very interesting history beginning with its 18th century origins. The property has played host to a number of dignitaries and historically important figures from bishops to knights and lords. The building itself is extremely impressive with many unique features including mullioned windows, Islamic-style turrets, original stone fireplaces and expansive gardens and grounds.

The hotel offers guests a number of dining options to enjoy with a full range of breakfast choices served in the old servant’s hall and a contemporary, seasonal dining experience in the horse racing themed Stables Restaurant & Bar. Guests can also arrange for private dining or event to be held in the Hall or Garden Terrace. The hotel also caters for weddings and conferences of any size.

Not every room at the hotel features Wi-Fi connectivity and guests must ensure that the room that they book accurately reflects their needs. Each room that does feature Wi-Fi also has its own password which can get annoying if multiple rooms are booked.

The hotel advertises a complimentary breakfast which is a basic continental-style breakfast of toast, croissants, cereals, cheese and some cold meats. Guests wanting a cooked breakfast option should note that this is charged for as an extra and is not part of any room rate.

A common complaint is a lack of abundant hot water, a problem that can be exacerbated during busy peak season periods or when large functions are taking place.
