Homely feeling and being able to take the dog with us
In a peaceful, idyllic setting, the hotel combines the traditional charm and attractive original features of a 19th-century building with the contemporary chic of extensive and luxurious spa...

Room was very nice the hotel is in a lovely location and the lounge and bar area are very nice. The carpark is large and it is only a short walk to the town centre. The staff are very helpful and friendly.

Lovely quiet location in mid Wales village. Beautiful old public house, modernised with excellent rooms and facilities. Attentive, efficient staff serving excellent array of good ales, beers. The food was exceptional and excellent value. Thoroughly enjoyed my one night, should have planned more nights! A hidden gem really. Would be great for cycling and walking. Will definitely return.

I’ve visited Chirk on many occasions for business and leisure. The village is quieter since the building of the bypass. One feature to see is the aqueduct. Nearby Pontcysyllte Aqueduct is famous but Chirk Aquaduct is impressive too. It runs alongside the railway viaduct over a deep valley. At its north end the canal enters a tunnel.

Disappointing. Don't be taken in.
Disappointing. Don't be taken in. It's not really a castle, its a stately home and not a very interesting one at that. Only part of the 'castle' can be viewed, what can be seen is not very interesting and poorly presented and not set in context. There were no information screens, very little signage and what information there was consisted of 'this is a painting of a person you've never heard of. This is another'. At £15 per person (!) this was grossly over-priced and certainly not worth the money

Unfortunately we were returning home from one funeral to prepare for another in a couple of days so we did not have time to visit any where except the adjacent restaurant but it looked a pleasant little town with lots of local sites such as the castle and Pontcysyllte aqueduct

We took a dayboat hire for the family out of the Anglo Welsh marina at Trevor and travelled down the canal down to Chirk, passing over the famous aqueduct. Following day we went to the British Ironworks near Oswestry and saw the Knife Angel sculpture. A great day out.

The hotel is outside Chirk, a few minutes drive. The town is quite small but has a good free car park. We couldn't visit the castle as it was closed due to bad weather. The Llangollen canal is nearby and good for walking. The aqauaduct is interesting. It's easy to get to NT places, Llangollen, Oswestry and Snowdonia National Park.

Chirk is just a small Village but cute and it has coffee shops and gift shops. Llangollen is close and it's generally a nice area to drive around.
Walks along the canal are a bonus and this is close to the Lion Quays resort..
Breakfast was very good with a wide selection and good quality .The location of the hotel was perfect for us and easy access to many points of interest. The spa facilities were very good and the staff very helpful and friendly Bar has good selection of drinks and very good prices for beer’s and wine again staff friendly and very efficient
The hotel was great. They were really busy with an event when we were there but it was all good. The mattresses were a bit uncomfortable but the room was fine. It was clean. It's an old building that has been altered and renovated repeatedly so if you expect perfection, this isn't for you. I would stay there again.
The hotel is on a great location for us as we were visiting friends who live nearby. We have stayed here three times over the past few years and the hotel has always been clean and comfortable with friendly helpful staff. The optional breakfast is great value for money.
Stayed for 2 nights had evening meal one night followed by breakfast before leaving - very good. Breakfast expensive but worth it. En-suite bathroom created by partitioning room, but both room and bathroom still reasonably spacious, unlike many other hotels.
Lovely hotel

We booked this hotel due to its price and location as we were doing a road trip from South Wales to Lake District. The staff were very helpful and the huge beer garden was a delight to have our evening meal in and a few drinks in the sunshine.
Easy parking. Clean affordable rooms with plenty of space. Excellent breakfast.
Perfect for cycling the canal path to Llangollen via x2 aqueducts and x2 tunnels.
Staff friendly evening meal good at local pub within walking distance.
the hotel was spacious clean & in a lovely location next to a canal. good outdoor spaces & in the better weather am sure would be a pleasant place to sit outside. spa facilities accessible & got everything needed.
The spa, pool, steam facilities etc, we're among the best I Have ever seen, especially the pool, it was very big with lovely ambient lighting.
This is the hotels one stand out star point.
Everything it was just like being @ home. for comfort. The place was spotless. The food was excellent. The staff were social, & friendly. I would Strongly recommend The Moreton Park Hotel.
After a busy day we were able to have a relaxing drink and a delicious dinner. Friendly staff. Great base for visiting Chirk castle and the canal/aqueduct. Clean and comfortable.
Stayed here several times for work purposes and the hotel is absolutely fine. Everything works - quick Wi-Fi,. comfortable room, restaurant just next door, good service.
