George And Dragon Place: Boutique Hotel in a Historic Pub from the 1700s
Accommodations & Historic Charm
George And Dragon Place offers 15 rooms in a Grade II listed building that has operated as a pub since the 1700s. Each room includes a flat-screen TV, work desk, and private bathroom with free toiletries. The hotel has been renovated in 2025, combining original stained-glass windows with new double glazing to reduce traffic noise.
Dining
The on-site restaurant serves American cuisine and a full English/Irish breakfast each morning. Guests can also order from a menu with an Asian twist, including green Thai curry and burgers. The ground-floor cafe has three Tudor-style fireplaces and a moulded ceiling, providing a setting for meals and drinks.

Chester Racecourse is 14 minutes away on foot, and Chester Zoo is 4.5 km from the property. Delamere Forest is 10 km from the hotel, and Liverpool John Lennon Airport is 40 km away.
Parking & Accessibility
Free private parking is available on-site, a rare offering among city-center hotels in Chester. Guests register their vehicle at check-in using a touchscreen device in reception. The car park is spacious enough for large vehicles, and the hotel is a 5-minute walk from the city centre via a safe underpass.
