Christmas Eve
Get your seasonal stay of to a story time start...as you're welcomed by characters from the books of local author Lewis Carol! Don’t worry about your luggage; we’ll look after that for you and have it delivered to your comfortable and characterful room. The warm welcome continues with a glass of spiced, winter mulled wine as well as tea and mouth-watering, buttery Scottish shortbread in the exclusive VIP lounge of the Kings’ Quarters. Later, join us for a drinks reception, official welcome and be serenaded by the Chester Bach Singers with their rendition of old Christmas carol favourites. A 4-course, Cheshire-themed dinner follows with entertainment in the form of our fabulous swing singers, Jem Brent or Nathan Turner. For those who wish to attend mid-night church services, we have the times for all denominations and somebody to guide you. Warming cups of hot chocolate will welcome you on your return. Sleep well, you might well get a visitor during the night!
Christmas Day
Merry Christmas! Enjoy your breakfast at leisure, which includes our exclusive local sausages and award winning cured bacon, then burn a few calories with our annual, challenging treasure hunt. Our 5-course Christmas Lunch is legendary and coffee and mince pies is served in time for the Queen’s speech at 3pm. The rest of the afternoon is for you to relax, play games, or probably have a contented snooze – and who can blame you! For dinner, we serve our traditional yuletide yumminess in the form of a buffet of festive favourites, and the night comes to the perfect end with sing-along DJs and dancing.
Boxing Day
After another great breakfast, the time is yours to take in the sights of Chester. You could perhaps stroll around the Walls – the only city in the UK to have a complete set, or take advantage of the Boxing Day sales. For anyone who wishes to be a little more athletic, Royals Fitness Suite is at your disposal, or we can provide you with a variety of walking (or jogging!) routes, taking in the picture postcard views of Chester. Return for an early buffet lunch and then it’s off to the Pantomime at Glyndwr Theatre in Wrexham. We know you’ll have a great time - we’ve yet to see anyone return without a smile across their face! For those who don’t fancy screaming ‘he’s behind you’ we have organised an official tour of Chester with expert guides, who will provide you with fascinating factoids about our history. We pull all the stops out at our annual, farewell gala dinner, with theming, magnificent food and live entertainment. Join in, sing along, or just sit back and enjoy our professional entertainers.
27th December
We feel so sad when it’s all over and we have to say goodbye, but we will wave you on your way (a few pounds heavier) after another wonderful breakfast and hope to see you again very soon.
