Edinburgh hotel receives coveted travel award
The Chester Residence, Edinburgh, has been named as one of the top hotels in Europe by the leading global travel website Trip Advisor.
The luxurious collection of four 5-star Georgian townhouses was nominated as one of the ‘Top 25 Hotels in Europe’ based on impressive reviews from exacting and seasoned world travellers.
The Chester Residence, in the heart of the city’s West End, joins a prestigious list of top class European hotels including The Four Seasons in Paris, Hotel Montecarlo in Barcelona, and Welrome Hotel in Rome.
Owner Graham Wood puts their success down to both the high level of personal service they provide and the stunning atmosphere they have created, having employed a townhouse restoration company to restore the building and a member of the British Design Institute to carry out the interior design.
He says: “The Chester Residence provides chic designer suites, attention to detail and a level of personalised service that ensures guests enjoy the highest possible standards of comfort and enjoyment throughout their stay with us, so of course we are delighted that this has been recognised.”
“Being a small, family run business we can spend time with our guests, getting to know them and their requirements even before they have arrived so that we can tailor make each guest’s experience.
“My wife Gillian and I researched the UK market and visited many other apartment style hotels in order to gain a fuller understanding of what was missing in the Scottish marketplace. That research coupled with experience of the many 5 star hotels we had both stayed in over the years gave us a direct eye for the design we envisaged.”
One reviewer on the Trip Advisor website says of The Chester Residence: “We have stayed in 5 star accommodation all over the world and this is by far one of the best in terms of thought, value and service.”
Each spacious suite at The Chester Residence is individually designed and comes complete with all the benefits of a luxury hotel, with in-room dining and a full reception and concierge service. Suites come with a selection of luxurious Jo Malone toiletries and robes, and the latest in room technology (including direct-dial telephone, voice mail, wide-screen multi-channel TV, DVD, CD player, and iPod docking station) is provided plus a selection of DVDs and complimentary Wi-Fi.
