Thank you so much for all your help and support

Thank you so much for all your help and support with our event. Yesterday was brilliant, Lucy and her team were brilliant onsite throughout the day, helping and supporting us. The food was delicious, the space was set up perfectly, and my guests were looked after superbly. Please pass on our thanks to everyone involved there, including of course yourself

The best day of our lives.

Stacey, Howard, Jason, David, Mirian and Sue plus all of the other team members truly went above and beyond in making sure that our wedding day was truly magical and something we will treasure forever. Nothing was too much trouble and the friendliness we experienced throughout our wedding weekend was impeccable. The Mercure hotel group should be rightly proud to have such an amazing retinue of professional and genuine staff memers. Thank you all x

Fabulous Venue

Attended an event at the hotel. The phone booking service was great, much like the lovely welcome on arrival. Our room was comfortable and clean. The event was great, well run and a fabulous venue. To finish it all off, breakfast was the perfect cure to the previous night's festivities.

Lovely Stay

We stayed at Mercure April 20th when we attended a family wedding. From the minute we arrived we were greeted by the friendliest lady who took time to talk to us whilst checking us in. We found our room very easily and were very pleased upon entry it was clean and spacious. The actual wedding was amazing all the staff we encounter were extremely helpful and attentive nothing seemed to much trouble and everyone had a smile even at the end of the evening.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Mercure Chester Abbots Well Hotel?

All Weddings here at Mercure Chester Abbots Well are wonderful! However, one of my favorites has to be an intimate wedding we held for 11 guests, the attention to detail was incredible and the couple really made the day their own.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Don't be afraid to ask. I fully understand that this is a huge decision and sometimes couples are not sure what options are available. If you don't know what you want, be honest. I am always happy to spend some time getting to know you before showing options that I think you may like. Still want something changing - not a problem its your day, my aim is to ensure it is perfect for you.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

The couple found funny photographs of all of the guests prior to the wedding, these were then placed at peoples place settings as an icebreaker for the table, each guest had a photograph of someone else who they may not have known well but was sat with them. It was hilarious.
