Accommodation
Accommodation has now been arranged at
Fontessa House, 51/57 Upper Northgate Street, Chester, CH1 4EF.
Here is a link to the accommodation website.
The accommodation only has a limited number of cluster flats with shared kitchens. We are therefore taking studios which are self contained with a kitchenette and en-suite shower rooms. This means that you will have to source your own catering supplies. That said there is a Tesco Express within a 2 minute walk. Should you wish to have a full English breakfast there is a Wetherspoon's, The Bull and Stirrup, within a 4 minute walk.
Both are on the way to the Cathedral which is an 8 minute walk away.

The cost of the rooms is £20 per night. In addition you will need to pay £30 for a bedding pack to include towels, bed sheet, duvet & covers, 2 pillows and covers and a further £40 for a kitchen pack to include crockery, pots, pans, glass, cutlery, utencils, washing up liquid and sponge . Although it is not mentioned in the room details on the website I am assured that the kitchens have both a kettle and toaster. Also, the Microwave Oven is a Combination oven. Each Studio also has a television!
So the total cost will be as follows:
6 nights £190
7 nights £210
8 nights £230
I would also mention for the benefit of couples that the beds are 3/4 sized doubles i.e. 4 foot. I would therefore recommend that each person should book their own studio. The cost is still less than Travelodge or Premier Inn which, for 7 nights, are currently £608 and £650 respectively on a cancellable basis.
There is no long term parking at the location although you should be able to park to unload and load. I recommend the following sites to find long term parking at a reasonable cost:
To secure your accommodation please pay a Deposit of £50 per room.
