ABode Chester to open in April 2010

The multi-million pound development is located in Chester’s new HQ complex overlooking the River Dee which is conveniently situated adjacent to Chester’s popular ‘Roodee’ racecourse.

Chester is brimming over with tourist offerings and ABode Chester will allow visitors from all over the world to enjoy the city while making their base at a hotel which suits their lifestyle. The hotel’s fine food offerings will also make a great addition to the culinary landscape of the city and our restaurant and Champagne bar will provide some of the best views in the city, overlooking the racecourse and Cathedral,” said Nick Halliday, Managing Director, ABode.

ABode Chester will feature luxurious interiors designed by Plumtree Mee and bespoke art collections created by celebrity photographer, Brian Aris. Three sixth floor ‘Fabulous suites’ are spaciously fitted to offer exceptional comfort with state of the art hand-built beds and oversized baths along with private balconies to give views of the racecourse, piazza and Chester city.

The hotel’s fifth floor Michael Caines Champagne Bar and Restaurant will offer breathtaking views from the city as far as the Welsh Hills.  This 76 seat restaurant offers private dining facilities as well as the opportunity to dine an al fresco on the outside terrace. 

Chef Michael Caines says: “We are delighted to open ABode’s doors to Chester.  The city has something for everyone in terms of historical and cultural interest as well as a thriving business community.  We hope that ABode’s offering of contemporary accommodation and fine food venues will give visitors luxury that every budget can afford without compromise on quality.”

The Chester hotel is ABode’s first new build and forms part of an expansion plan aimed at the development of 15 luxury hotels in strategic locations, with the company’s sights set on an operation in Salisbury beyond Chester’s launch.
