Total comfort during our stay. Accommodation, food, all just what was needed on a November midweek stay. Will return.
Our room overlooked the river Dee with a bay window and armchairs to enjoy the view. A big super king sized bed. Good tea tray and water. Spacious bathroom. Dinner was very good .breakfast was lovely portions. Staff very helpful and efficient
The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. There are toiletries provided which is always a help. My only complaint is that the room we had was by the kitchen extraction unit. If we stayed again, I would book a room at the front. We were late booking this time. We have stayed twice before and loved it. Just unlucky this time. I woild still recommend, just check out the room beforehand. The hotel is really wel situated and the food is very good.
A wonderful location right on the Dee Estuary. Although there’s no flowing water we sat on the terrace and enjoyed a glass of wine in the evening sun and watched the world and wildlife go by. Our evening meal was great as was breakfast. A lovely big room, very clean and comfortable. All in all a great stay.
We stayed at The Ship for a special wedding anniversary. It’s an exceptional hotel in a wonderful area which has a unique atmosphere. The hotel food is good with a menu that changes over the seasons. The breakfast is very good and there is plenty of choice from pastries and cereals to full English. The rooms are well furnished and comfy and the tea, coffee and biscuits topped up daily.
For bird watchers the estuary is worth a visit and in the room we chose the hotel thoughtfully provided binoculars. We also visited Birkenhead Park that inspired New York Central Park. The highlight had to be our visit to Port Sunlight and the Lady Lever art gallery. A brilliant exhibition of Jim Moir's art which was much more skilled than we’d realised from the Sky Arts tv series.
I have stayed at this property before and the rooms and location are good. However on this occasion the dinner service was awful. It took more than an hour between my starter and main course, during this time the waitress passed me multiple times and never once asked if i needed a drink (glass was empty) or if everything was ok. I felt like i was a hindrance rather than a customer.
