The 85 bedrooms are designed and fitted to ABode's high standards and boast magnificent views of Chester and the Welsh hills. The jewels in ABode Chester's crown are three Fabulous suites, spaciously fitted and designed to the highest levels of comfort and luxury, located on the 6th floor, each with private balcony and views over the city, race course or internal piazza.
Michael Caines dining
At the centre of ABode Chester, as in every ABode hotel, are Michael Caines dining concepts that will set Chester alight.
Stunning 5th floor Michael Caines Restaurant and Champagne Bar
The Michael Caines Restaurant has seating for 76 with a further 26 covers available on the outside terrace. The Restaurant serves Michael's award-winning modern British cuisine utilising the best local and regional produce. In addition to the à la carte and tasting menus, the Restaurant features the acclaimed Michael Caines dining concept of "grazing menus", whereby smaller portions of dishes from the à la carte menu can be enjoyed in either the Restaurant or more informally in the Champagne Bar.
Private dining is available, and the entire 5th floor can be booked for exclusive use for upwards of 240 guests.
MC Café Bar & Grill and ABarMC
Located on the ground floor, the MC Café Bar & Grill offers informal and delicious food and drink throughout the day and evening, from coffee and homebaked pastries, to full à la carte dining. In the evenings, the ABarMC is a late night lounge bar that is certain to become one of Chester's favoured venues.
Business and conference facilities
ABode Chester has up-to-the-minute facilities for all your conference and business needs. In addition to private rooms that are capable of meeting your requirements, however large or intimate, together with all necessary equipment, we have the added bonus of being able to keep you well fed in true Michael Caines style, whether with a business buffet or gourmet sandwiches, or full menus enjoyed in a discrete private dining room.
