Immaculately clean property. Exceptionally comfortable. Incredibly flexible & helpful owners. Great location for touring the area.
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...

On arrival we were greeted with a very smile. We had an accessible room which was excellent. Food was also excellent and the service was definitely with a smile.

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..
This has got to be one of the nicest hotels we have ever stayed in, perfect location, we were given room 11 which was huge and very comfy.
The staff were very pleasant and friendly and nothing was too much trouble.
We had breakfast in the Hotel and it was exceptional, hot and very tasty served in the beautiful period dining room.
The hotel is in the heart of the village and ideal for walking the Aquaduct and walking up to the castle.
All in all a perfect weekend break..
Only stayed for a night. Quite a nice site by the canal. The 'Club' area was very good - we swam twice whilst there. Ate in the Waterside restaurant which was very busy but food was good. The breakfast was excellent. Staff all very pleasant and helpful. We used it as a base to visit Chirk Castle and Attingham Hall.
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.
It’s a lovely self-contained hotel with great facilities. This includes the hotel itself, restaurant and separate spa and pool.
We didn’t have the spa package, so we were restricted to the pool and sauna. The steam room was not working.
It’s certainly a place I would go back to!
The rooms were clean comfortable and perfect for a short stay. The location in the middle of Chirk was ideal. The bar and dining room were both very good and breakfast was excellent. The hotels main asset is the staff who were all friendly helpful and made you feel welcome
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.
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.
Staff!! They were an amazing team seeking to make sure each guest’s needs were met. The location was spot on for what we were visiting. Would recommend this hotel to family and friends.
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.
