Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel

  Hotel Information
 
Craxton Wood Hotel is a breath of fresh air.

Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel is a breath of fresh air. Dating from the turn of the last century, the original house is an architectural delight with exposed beams, wood panelling and fine English oil paintings scattered through a building of elegant proportions.

Receiving excellent natural light, the number of spacious bedrooms at Craxton Wood has reached 72 after a major redevelopment, and the elegance is on an even higher level now. Indeed, woodland orchard and rose garden colours bring a little of the grounds into your room, while chrome detailing and Italian marble continues the attention to quality.

The double AA rosette-winning restaurant has long beed regarded as one of the finest in the whol Nowth West. In a detirminedly classical approach to cooking, the internationally trained chefs prepare exquisite dishes whose subtle flavours can only have come from the finest and freshest of ingredients.
LOCATION

Macdonald Craxton Wood Hotel is close to the city of Chester with its Roman foundations, exceptional mediaeval streets and cathedral, elegant shops and nearby Chester Zoo. The coast and mountains of North Wales and the urban attractions of Merseyside are all only a short drive away.

Set within minutes of the ancient city of Chester, rolling English countryside and rugged Welsh scenery, Craxton Wood Hotel is ideally placed, both for those seeking relaxation and those who prefer the bustle of city life.

The hotel is only 10 minutes from the heart of Chester where shoppers will find no shortage of doors to walk through, whether in the Cheshire Oaks designer shopping village or further afield in the vast Trafford Centre.

After you drive through richly wooded grounds on the mature, 27 acre estate, this traditional whitewashed country house emerges from among carefully tended lawns and gardens. Dating from the turn of the last century, the original house is an architectural delight.

"Wow!!!"
Not once have i ever come across a hotel that is such a pleasure to stay in as the Craxton Wood. From the minute we arrived we were impressed. It was raining so we were greeted by the extremely friendly concierge - i think Frank was his name, he brough an umberella out to our car and helped us in with out luggage. We were then greeted at the reception desk by a young chap called James, think he is head receptionist. James went well out of his way to give us all the information we needed and he really made our stay in a 4* hotel feel like it was 5*. I have never seen customer service quite as good as this, even up to the point of remembering ourr names and greeting us each morning as we came down for breakfast. Well done. Top marks - get more James's in your hotels! Bedrooms were lovely, if you do stay, request a garden view, as the surrounding area is beautifull. Resteraunt a little slow, but the food was amazing.....just make sure you either come down early or very late for breakfast to avoid the queues. Once again, thankyou Macdonald Hotels. I'll be back!!!

"Excellent!"
I have recently stay at the Craxton Wood and I would have to say it is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. We too had an executive room and they now have a dvd library with suprisingly some up to date films!. The staff are all very helpful and courtious, couldn't fault them and the food was exceptional. I would fully receommend this hotel to anyone wishing to go and relax for a few days I have already booked to go again next month!.
