About
Cheshire is undoubtedly one of the UK’s most beautiful counties, and the glorious Macdonald Portal Hotel is a jewel in its crown. A luxurious retreat set amid some beautiful countryside, this is a go-to destination for anyone seeking high end opulence. As soon as you arrive here, you will start on the gentle, pleasant path to complete and utter bliss.
There’s plenty to see and do in the local area, but checking out the Roman heritage of Chester surely has to be close to the top of the agenda. Family days out at the excellent Chester Zoo are always enjoyable, while the spectacular Chester Cathedral is also worthy of a visit. And of course, you can shop till you drop in the city centre, where you’ll also find museums and art galleries.
Overnight stays at the superb Portal Hotel will soothe the soul. There are 85 sumptuous bedrooms here, as well as a spa offering eight wonderfully tranquil treatment rooms. You’ll also find three excellent golf courses and two eateries that combine elegant surroundings and mouth-watering food.
Please note: This Hotel operates a cashless system.

Myself and my daughter enjoyed a lovely overnight spa break. The hotel was lovely. Gorgeous views across the golf course and countryside. We arrived a little early but our room was ready. Lovely and spacious, nice and clean. We had a cocktail each at the bar, very nice but also very expensive, Ā£25 for 2 cocktails. The spa area itself is really lovely. Spotlessly clean, very modern with a nice relaxing atmosphere and our facials were lovely. Candle lit room, relaxing music and the whole place smelt amazing. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Pool area was nice and we enjoyed the various sauna and steam rooms. We had breakfast next morning which was lovely. Great choice of fruit, cereals, cold meats, Danish pastries and fruit juice. Good choice on hot food menu. Ordered a full English which arrived in about 10 minutes and was very nice. All staff were very pleasant. I would definitely recommend a stay here and will return to try a massage. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Don't expect anything spectacular. It's OK if you can get a cheap package deal, but not what I'd expect from a 4 star hotel. Service is lacking, hotel looks tired and a lot of things come at an extra...... Read more
Golf courses are good with lovely views. Hotel could do with improved breakfast experience. Maybe going back to buffet style. Bar staff friendly and helpful. Spa and pool area nice and well received...... Read more
The rooms are decent to be honest but thatās about it, the food is absolutely disgraceful for what you pay, it wouldnāt feed a infant let alone an adult, both courses are challenging but...... Read more
