    Chester Zoo vies (with Whipsnade) as the UK's best zoo.

    Chester Zoo vies (with Whipsnade) as the UK's best zoo. This is a stunning, world class zoo with a broad and mainly breeding collection, supporting associated conservation projects globally. I would like more detailed information available online about habitats/animals but on the ground, a day-long visit leaves you wanting even more. Enjoy! Then come again.....

    Can spend the whole day here and still not manage to see everything, absolutely love this place! Would suggest to bring your own lunch though, can be crowded at the on-site food places and it's not cheap!

    Get there early or late to beat the crowds.

    Get there early or late to beat the crowds. Currently there is a lot of queuing to get in to see anything, but we didn't get to see any of the big cats. Very poor distancing in all open areas and in the queues. (Poor)

    Fantastic "Zoo".

    Fantastic "Zoo". The animals all looked so well cared for and were in great habitats. We walked around Zoo for about 5 hours to ensure we saw all the animals, so need to wear comfortable shoes and clothes.

    Arguably the best zoo in the UK!

    Arguably the best zoo in the UK! Such a variety of things to see and do. Great value for money and you can see the animals are really well cared for and the staff love their job. There's plenty of places to take a picnic but there's also so many shops and restaurants to choose from with reasonably priced good food I'd be hard pushed to suggest hauling around a picnic for the day! Great family day out

    The location was great for what we wanted it for , chester zoo and Cheshire oaks. It would be great for chester city centre but we didn’t go there in the end. The room was beautiful, clean and modern, breakfast delicious, having a swimming pool was amazing, the staff super helpful and friendly especially the reception staff and the housekeeping staff, going that extra mile. Thank you holiday inn :)

    Choose this hotel as it was close to Chester Zoo, it was pot luck from the web. I would highly recommend it, a Greene King chain that didn't disappoint regarding food. The room was clean and a fair size too, clean towels, good beds, would stay again. Excellent children's playground, just a short walk away.

    The location is very close to chesire oaks, chester zoo. Also I liked the fact you are at a service station so if you need anything from the shop it's right on your door step. Free WiFi and it is a good connection. The 2 bedroom apartment was lovely just what we needed as a family of 5. Also to say you are at a service station you don't hear any traffic on the main roads. The breakfast was going lovely to say its a small continental breakfast.
