Tim Cook, the man who took over as Chief Executive Officer of Apple from the mercurial Steve Jobs, who passed away last year due to a long standing illness, has been twice placed on top of a list featuring the highest paid CEO's in recent weeks. However, if some new legal findings are to be believed, it appears that the Apple CEO is not that greedy for more.
In a filing that was submitted to the United States Securities and exchange commission a couple of days ago, Apple has specified that CEO Cook will not be opting for the dividend equivalents on his restricted stock units. This is a major chunk of money that amounts to around the $75 million mark considering the fact that he received a million restricted stock units last term when he stepped up to becoming the CEO of Apple following Steve Jobs' illness.
"At Mr. Cook's request, none of his restricted stock units will participate in dividend equivalents," the company was quoted as saying in the filing. "Assuming a quarterly dividend of $2.65 per share over the vesting period of his 1.125 million outstanding restricted stock units, Mr. Cook will forego approximately 75 million dollars in dividend equivalent value."
This huge stock grant of one million shares that was revealed in January after the proxy filing, has certain restrictions that will restrict Tim Cook from collecting the first half of the shares until 2016, and the later half in year 2021.
As per the filing, the amount of money that Cook was entitled to receive is a part of a newly approved amendment by the Apple board which applies to outstanding and unvested restricted stock units. These restricted stock units get a dividend that is equal to that on the company's common stock units. However, the amount of money cannot be collected until the stock vests. This decision was made by the compensation committee of the Apple board. It may be noted that Apple CEO Tim Cook is not a member of this committee.
Nearing the end of March this year, Apple announced that they had plans to use a significant portion of their 100 billion dollar cash pile to provide a quarterly dividend of $2.65 per share beginning in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year 2012 that begins on the 1st of July. The same plan also spoke about a share repurchase program of 10 billion dollars, which is stated to take off in September.

This is an interesting topic and how pharmaceuticals drug approval is
practised merits critical attention. However, it would have been a
really excellent movie if the oppressive atmosphere during the
experimental phase would have been depicted without making the hospital
staff resemble as prison guards (or maybe even worse: concentration
camp guards). In the current form, the plot appears too stereotypical,
too shallow, and unrealistic.
One may wonder at the end how Testing Life Ii will turn out? Will Ans Suess ever have any remorse that she scammed the social system back in Berlin? Will she maybe come to realize that struggling for survival can typically be much more brutal in L.A. than back in Berlin? And finally, even though a bit of a stretch too far: What will she think about individuals sentenced to death and being - intentionally - killed with pharmaceutical cocktails in her dreamland (quoting Ana Suess: "...the land of the free and the land of the braves")?

How to Relate with Love to a Controlling Person
Every once in a while a relationship comes along that seems more complicating than other relationships. We find that it takes up more time than we had planned and somehow always seems to throw us into a state of false guilt, no matter what the issue. Learn what the earmarks are of a controlling person—so that you are clear about what you are actually dealing with—and then learn strategies for how to avoid those tactics and/or handle them with grace. Readers have found this very illuminating. Bonus: some added thoughts on how to distinguish real forgiveness before God from entrapping repeated psychological battering. Includes our Item #12 on Forgiveness. 18 pages.

Consumer Rights – What Are Businesses Obliged To Do?
Consumer law has changed with the introduction of the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Paul Trincas, a litigation specialist with law firm, Charles Lucas & Marshall, explains why it is important businesses are aware of their responsibilities to consumers.
The purpose of the Consumer Rights Act is to provide consumers with enhanced and easier to understand rights – and to provide businesses with a clearer pathway as to what they are obliged to do, and what they are not obliged to do, should things go wrong.
The hope is that the updated rights contained in the Act will assist both businesses and consumers to better understand their rights and liabilities and help to avoid disagreements.
Here is a summary of the main rights and liabilities when defective goods are sold to consumers.
1) If a product is proven to be defective, then the consumer has the right, within 30 days of delivery, to reject the goods. This is known, under the Act, as the 'short-term right to reject' and the business is obliged to provide a refund.
2) Alternatively and running parallel to the short-term right to reject within 30 days, the consumer can elect, rather than to reject the goods, to have the goods 'either repaired or replaced.' The choice of repair or replacement is the consumer's and the business will have to oblige. This is called the 1st tier remedy.
3) If however the consumer fails to reject the defective goods within 30 days, then the consumer still has the right to repair or replacement. If this right is exercised within six months, then the Act places a reverse burden of proof on the business in that if within six months the goods are found to be defective then it is 'assumed' that the goods were defective when sold, unless the business can prove otherwise.
4) If the goods cannot be repaired or the repairs carried out do not work or there is no replacement available, then the consumer has the 'final right to reject' the goods and demand a refund, or alternatively, can choose to seek a price reduction and keep the goods. This is known as the 2nd tier remedy.
5) The right to repair and replacement continues even after six months, but in this event, the consumer, in order to exercise this right, will then have the obligation and onus of proving that the goods were defective when delivered, which is not always an easy task to do.
For further information contact Paul Trincas on 01635 521212 or firstname.lastname@example.com
Update on Consumer Rights Law
- Sale of Goods Act 1979
- Unfair Terms in Consumer Regulations 1999
- Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982
The aim of the new Act is to update all the previous legal rulings into one Act for customers to refer to if they run into trouble. These are the key changes:
- Terms and conditions have to be in clear English and in a form easily understood by consumers. Therefore, microscopic small print is banned. If certain conditions are hidden away or couched in impenetrable language, the business cannot rely on it if the product fails.
- Any attempt to limit liability needs to be carefully considered. Therefore traders cannot generally aim to exclude liability for unforeseeable losses such as indirect and consequential loss.
- Any rate used to calculate interest payable on late payments cannot be excessive. The rate to be used should be ideally set at base rate.
- Rules dealing with the provision of digital content have been introduced. Paper or digital content have not been addressed in the past. Paper or digital content must now be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described.
- Consumers' rights for any late deliveries have changed significantly as have the legal rights available for defective goods. Therefore if consumers buy an item which turns out to be faulty, the consumers generally get an automatic refund if it is returned within 30 days.
This is a brief overview of some of the key changes. Generally, companies who deal with consumers do now need to check their terms and conditions to ensure they are fully compliant.

New Consumer Contract Regulations – Do Your Business Practices Comply?
The Consumer Contract Regulations came into force on 13 June 2014 and contain a number of pitfalls for unwary traders. Paul Trincas, a litigation specialist with Charles Lucas & Marshall, covers the headline points.
The Consumer Contract Regulations apply to all qualifying contracts made after the 13 June.
They supersede the Distance Selling Regulations and Doorstep Selling Regulations. They regulate 'on-premises', 'off-premises' contracts and distance selling. Distance selling includes online sales, telesales or sales via a catalogue but is outside the scope of this article.
Q – Will the Regulations apply to my business' activities?
The Regulations cover contracts for the sale of goods, digital content and / or supply of services where the seller is a trader and the buyer a consumer. Most tradesmen and professional services providers will be caught. Exceptions do apply and these are worth checking.
Q – Why is it important to identify where the contract was made?
The Regulations distinguish between contracts made 'on' the trader's business premises and contracts made elsewhere (e.g. a consumer's home). Different rules apply to each type of contract. In practice, identifying whether a contract is on- or off-premises can prove difficult: for example, a contract concluded on the business premises of the trader after the consumer has been 'personally and individually addressed' by the trader elsewhere might be treated as an off-premises contract.
Q – What is the significance of the contract being 'on-premises'?
The Regulations require the trader to (1) provide to the consumer certain pre-contract information; (2) seek express prior consent for additional payments; (3) deliver goods within 30 days unless otherwise agreed; and (4) charge the consumer no more than the basic rate for any telephone calls about the contract.
Q – What is the significance of the contract being 'off-premises'?
The requirements detailed above still apply and in addition (1) the trader must provide the consumer with a copy of the contract; (2) in some cases, the consumer will have a right to cancel and must be told as much; (3) if applicable, the trader must not begin the service before the end of the cancellation period unless requested to do so.
Q – How does the right to cancel work?
The cancellation period begins either the day after the consumer has received the goods or (if a services contract), from the date on which the contract is entered into. The cancellation period ends after a period of 14 days from the date on which the consumer is given the pre-contract information (up to a period of 12 months from the last day of the 'normal cancellation period'). A consumer can cancel by making an unequivocal statement to the trader to that effect. If the consumer cancels, no contract is formed and the consumer will be entitled to reimbursement of monies paid.
Q – Is there any way of overcoming the cancellation period?
In relation to services contracts, the consumer can make a written request that the services begin during the cancellation period. If the consumer has done so, he must pay for so much of the services as have been performed up to cancellation provided certain conditions are met. In practice, the trader is advised to provide the consumer with a carefully drafted 'instructions to proceed' form for completion.
Q – There appears to be a number of traps for the unwary trader!
Indeed there are! Failure to provide the consumer with the pre-contract information will mean that the trader is in breach of an implied term of the contract. In relation to off-premises service contracts, the consumer might escape payment altogether by exercising cancellation rights within 12 months of the normal cancellation period, despite the services having been provided. Failure to provide the pre-contract information in relation to off-premises contract is also a criminal offence.

He was the second person in history to complete successfully the Carnegie Deli Challenge (two 3½ pound sandwiches of turkey, corned beef, Swiss cheese, and toppings in one sitting), doing it in just under two hours (Ed "Cookie" Jarvis completed the challenge the same day an hour later, after three hours of eating).[5] He has appeared on several televised eating contests, including the US Open of Competitive Eating[6] and the Glutton Bowl.[7]
Currently the President, Feingold has served as Vice President and director of the Greater New York chapter of Mensa, the largest chapter of the high IQ society in the world.[8] He was also Master of his Masonic Lodge, Perfect Square #204, in New York City, chartered by the Grand Lodge of New York.
He lives in Manhattan and runs the real estate brokerage Masonic Realty,[9] and co-manages a sports and entertainment law firm, Bring Heat Industries.

text: If you thought hipster plating was bad, get a load of what they use for booze (25 Photos) 1 Listen, I'm all down for a hand grenade or a nice fish bowl punch, but I'm sure everyone can agree that 95% of the time a normal glass is very much preferred. Here are some of the most ridiculous containers being used for alcohol these days. 2 When your drink obnoxiously reminds you of the dish pileup in your sink at home. 3 Beer doesn't always come easy, sometimes you have to work for it. 4 Is this a bar or a potions class at Hogwarts? 5 Babies who won't quit "wining" probably inspired this one. 6 How does the saying go? "An apple-flavored-drink-out-of-an-actual-apple a day keeps the doctor away?" That doesn't sound right. 7 Do you think the picture of yourself clinging to your drink is supposed to serve as a reminder of what sober you looks like? 8 Look, a drink wearing an old sack to remind you that you overdressed for the occassion! 9 The epitome of a "liquid breakfast." 10 A nice cucumber-infused gin made by a very lazy bartender . 11 "Does this drink taste a little metallic to you?" 12 This bar wants to make your feel like you're breaking the rules by using a flask. It's like prom night all over again. 13 I don't think camera lenses work after you throw a bunch of ice in them. 14 The grossest part about this shot out of an oyster shell is that somebody probably ate the oyster first. 15 Try not to get stung while sipping. 16 Also, try not to get a disease while drinking out of a clinical waste bin. 17 Chinese takeout never got you so drunk! 18 Skip the glass and just drink moonshine straight from the jar. 19 The ultimate recycling: Using actual trash to hold your drink. 20 "For today's science experiment, we're going to see just how foamy we can make our beer!" 21 Nothing like some Marmite to get your buzz going. 22 Why waste energy putting the lemon in the actual drink when you can just use a tray? 23 Not only did they just remind you of grandma while you're trying to have a good time, they went a step further and put ice in the beer. 24 The best way to watch your alcohol intake is to literally measure as you go. 25 Eating alcoholic foam is the only clean way to get drunk.

Great customer service and attitude of staff Prob with hot water making tea lukewarm!
We were celebrating our Silver Wedding - this was a last minute deal and we managed to secure a room for about 50% less of normal rate - on arrival the staff were attentive and after we told them about our Silver Wedding a small complimentary cake was left in the room. We had an automatic upgrade to i think a Classic Deluxe room, which was amazing. This is truly a 5 * hotel, and although only for one night - it lives up to everything described on their website - Amazing... The only thing i would say - is we were not told very much about the SPA facilities, it was a case of find out for yourself - but as we were only in the hotel for one night it wasnt really an issue.
I was upgraded to the Presidential Suite which is normally £1400 per night. Amazing hotel!!!!
The situation is ideal A little disappointed with 'The Brasserie'
The breakfast was superb. Both food and service were exceptional. The room was dark. The weather was bad and therefore the light outside was poor, but I was unable to find a position where I could sit and read comfortably. There was not a light which I could sit under.
Polite and helpful staff, beautiful room, excellent food and facilities. Everything you should be entitled to expect from a 5star hotel.
We were a little disappointed with our room - we stayed in the classic suite and have stayed in many 4 star hotels which have far nicer rooms.
The bed was awesome All good
It was beautiful, clean and luxurious. The staff were very friendly & helpful. An added touch that they would park the car for you - made a big difference on a busy saturday. The food in the Simon Radley restaurant was lovely and the staff were great. We had a fab time.
Excellent customer care in every way. Always ready to help but not intrusive. Nothing
thought there may have been a bigger selection of hot food on breakfast buffet
fantastic restaurant and entertainment bedrooms a little dated but still an enjoyable stay
The bar was nice and had a good atmosphere, and plenty of different beers to choose from. Very comfortable, and nice pool etc for relaxing. We stayed on a Friday night so the restaurant was closed which limited the eating options. We didn't want to have a dinner/dance, I get ill on boats, the pizza place was only for snacks and the bar was full, so we ended up having to eat in town.
i didnt like the fact that there was no air conditioning. the heat was overpowering and the rooms were too hot and stuffy to be comfortable
Located close to the city centre, friendly staff and nice pool. The breakfast was also quite good, and the room was spacious and comfortable. We had a room on the side of the hotel facing the dual carriageway and it was quite noisy.
The canal cruise, the spa. Noise from traffic, no air conditioning
Very close to the city centre and all shops and amenities. Hotel pool and spa was extremely relaxing. Hotel very clean and was really pleased with the free upgrade for our wedding anniversary. Would definitely stay again.
the temperature in the spa/swimming pool was too cold.
Excellent position for access to the city centre. Super leisure facilities.Excellent staff very friendly. Nice meals. Surprised that it is only 3 star deserves more. We were upgraded to a higher level room on arrival. Nothing
The Staff were very obliging and the restaurant service was excelent Lack of lounge facilities. During our pre-dinner drinks, We were asked to leave the residents lounge early Saturday evening due to it being reserved for the boat party. The other small lounge near reception was very crowded as was the bar area/football lounge
the way 2 staff chatted with a guest whilst others were waiting to be served. came accross as quite rude
the room was very noisey
nothing. did not like my stay at the hotel at all,to start with no room left in parking,the shower in our room was not good,the bar staff where not very nice and very expensive for what it is .will not be returning.
Comfort of room.
Parking arrangements.
There was an air of unobtrusive efficiency Many of the breakfast plates were dirty!
The hotel was kept to a very high standard and we were pleased with every aspect of it
Quality much like all in chain but staff very friendly and efficient, keen to please Nothing
to pay for carparking in there carpark when you have paid them over £300 to stay for to nights
location of hotel breakfast on saturday was poor - not enough food,poor service. had to sort ourselves out and after requesting items still did not gwet them. have filled in complaint to hotel as above
Good breakfast The cleaner left the rubbish bag on the chair after cleaning. Unable to get the WiFi working on my laptop
convenience for city centre and out of town journey The migraine-inducing carpet, especially on the stairs! Why do hotels DO this?
Convenient location, car parking available, good breakfast and generally good value. The hotel is old and "tired" and shows its age. But it was clean. Bathroom facilities could do with updating as could bedroom decor..
The location of the hotel handy for the train and a free bus to the centre was excellent. Breakfast was one of the best I've had. Hotel staff very friendly Our room was at the front of the hotel, this was very noisy thoughout the night and early hours due to taxi rank outside and parties leaving hotel
Beautiful hotel, lovely room, fantastic breakfast. Close to shops, great choice of bars and restaurants near by. Really enjoyed our stay. Downside's, Bath in our room was too short, could not lie down in it. The room although beautiful, felt a little cramped, to much furniture me thinks!
The Staff were generally very helpful. The decor is certainly querky but if anything too dark and depressing. It detracts from what could be a nice hotel.
good staff nice big hotel
breakfasts were excellent wide choice of dishes staff very helpfull romm was very clean
The welcoming staff and the warm friendly atmosphere. The room was clean and the food was very good Being charged £10 per day for car parking
Loved the cocktails!! Excellent bar staff. Good morning breakfast set us up nicely for a day's shopping Throughly enjoyed our whole stay
The extremely attentive staff who made this hotel such a world apart from so called "posh hotels". Beautiful situation, close to Chester and yet in the middle of nowhere.One of my better choices. The other reviews have an element of truth regarding the requirement for updating the decor.
Breakfast was great .How nice to have a freshly cooked breakfast though new crockery urgently needed Stained cracked crockery every morning for breakfast,Leaking radiator,(reported but not mended in the three days we stayed) very dirty window ledges, carpet edes and doors hand/finger smudges on doors which did wipe away with a little effort, therefore one felt that the cleaning was below standard and not observed by management.
Quality hotel ,, great service from all the staff ...
-Very quiet place, although there were weddings - close to Chester - nice rooms the music in the dinig room, always the same or nothing, not professional
Very helpful staff, lovely atmosphere, good food, good sports facilities.
The hotelitself was lovely, well decorated adn luxuirous, the spa area was fantastic. We ate in the restaurant and the the service and food were both fab!
Staff were all friendly, ambience was excellent, beautiful peaceful grounds and hotel. The room windows must have been open for about a week, I spent the first hour of checking in killing all the mosquito's and flies in the room.
oasis of calm,spacious comfortable room, spacious bathroom, most friendly and helpful staff.
It has a great location, very fine restautant. In fact we wish we had more time to enjoy the hotel and its facilities.
The most Friendly service
Central location, new and modern Poor breakfast, pricey and limited parking
Very good location for shopping and to visit Michael Caines Restaurant Our original room was noisy, however the hotel were very good about changing room. The Michael Caines restaurant was cold and noisy from the Champagne bar next door. The food was excellent
Modern Friendly staff, the decor in exec room superb, minimalist and cool, next time will eat there, but a good hotel
Comfortables beds Reception area too dark
Excellent location - 2 minute walk to the city centre. Room was amazing value for money - standard room would have been the equivalent to a luxury room in many hotels. Breakfast was delivered to our room free of charge. Will definitely stay there again.
close to city with comfortable rooms excellent parking and a fantastic michael caine restaurant . staff very polite and helpful
The room we stayed in was very nice, very big and modern styling. The staff were very helpful and there was always somebody on reception if you needed them. The car park is alittle bit tight to drive around and the pillows were hard but there only little things to worry about.
Excellent room.Breakfast very good Trying to get in was difficult as was parking
The location was ideal for shopping, short walk to the centre although quite steep if anyone is infirm the inconsideration of other hotel guests who have been out for the night and come back in the middle of the night along corridors being very loud and banging doors, perhaps a notice on all lifts and landing doors saying quiete please think of other guests !!!
Good value for money and very close to the town centre, ideal and convenient for Christmas shopping. The cook food for breakfast was very limited, just scrambled egg and sausages.
Comfortable, clean rooms for a few hours sleep. Basic but exactly what would be required of a crash-pad. Only food available is breakfast. If you're hungry at any other time you only have a vending machine.
Willingness of staff to do extras - order taxis, keep suitcases etc
Excellent location to celebrate my friends 40th birthday Some contents were stolen from the boot of my car whilst in the car park
The welcome on arrival at reception. The quality of the Wi-Fi Broadband in the rooms and lobby. The no-nonsense breakfast fare. Lining up for the various breakfast items was a bit unorganised and free-for-all.
The locality and the car parking facility. None
clean rooms,helpful staff,free parking. breakfast a bit of a free for all.
Convenient to town centre Bed Mattress needs changing Hollow in middle.!!!!!!!!!!!
Parking facilities and location to town center
The Staff at the Leisure Club were very helpful. The Hotel room we were given had some serious problems with the radiator pipes which resulted in noisy vibrations which were so loud it was impossible to sleep in the room. We were allocated a new room however customer service was found to be lacking as no one would answer the phone at reception and when we went down in person we were just given another key with no offer of an apology,assistance in moving rooms or a refund.
Very good service No walk-in shower
Comfortable venue
Convenient location for Liverpool,Manchester,Chester and touring the area, good local pubs nearby especially Ring O Bells. Good leisure facilities. Evening meal in restaurent was poor.
really nice
the location was excellant. the quite luxury of the lounges . Food was very good and service from waitresses was first class.A very enjoyable stay. some more local information ie.history etc of the hotel and abbey as reading matter in the public rooms.
Close to Daresbury Labs - anonymous Poor service in the bar. Very mediocre Caesar salad, white wine not sufficiently chilled. Cold fried eggs at breakfast - bacon etc all a bit greasy.
Staff were friendly and helpful and the place was clean and tidy although the room was warm and i was pleased i stayed on a cold autumn night and not a hot summer one.
Friendliness and helpfulness of staff (in particular the housekeeper). Good breakfast selection. Generally well run Toilet flush inadequate. Windows difficult to close (it was open when we arrived and I had to go outside to close it (room 165)) jacuzzi and poolside shower not operational on the Sunday
convenient location, freindly staff my room was not clean and extremely hot
The ambience of the bar / lounge area. There was no where to relax after dinner as all areas were taken over by tables. Because of the wooden floors, it is noisy if you are located on teh ground floor. Carpets in the upstairs rooms would help.
Very friendly staff and good food. Lovely location. The room we were initially shown to had not been cleaned or made up. However, we were immediately upgraded to an executive room as recompense, so no real complaint there.
Friendliness, excellent food and superb surroundings.
beautiful setting & lovely rooms, furnished to the highest standard
The staff, the setting, the meals were all excellent. Nice to have my dog able to join us in the hotel. I have no faults to find at all with the hotel
The rooms were lovely; really well decorated and very clean The complimentary breakfast was not very generous
pleasant and friendly staff,clean and cosy room with amazing views
Only issue was the the internet was down for the first 2 days. We booked here specifically for this as we work while travelling and this was a problem for us.
We enjoyed the food and the rooms and thecountryarea, we weren't too impressed with the narrow roads for our big rental car. All told we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Very pleasant surroundings. Nice food, comfortable clean room No, except that its a little confusing when you arrive to know where to find the reception area. We were charged for someone else's meals and stay instead of our own, however this rectified speedily oncec it was pointed out.
The staff were fantastic especially Luke the manage,r food was excellent, the beds very comfortable had a great time and will go back soon No it was fantastic
old world charm. we booked the 4 poster room which was very good. food was only ok. could have been better.
friendly staff we had lunch there and was very good breakfast was poor , and we had to wait 30 minutes to be served
The atmosphere in the public bar and the cleanliness of the room the mattresses were very uncomfortable, we had to use the bed covers to stop the springs attacking us!
the location and the shower the missing remote, the lack of hairdryer and shocking breakfast.
The central location and the "Old World Charm" - very charming and very atmospheric. Also staff were friendly, helpful and service was extremely quick. Breakfast was good and freshly made. Facilities were clean and comfortable. Our room was over the public bar and was a bit noisy - luckily we didn't stay on the Karaoke night! Beer deliveries started quite early (but to be fair much what you'd expect staying in a very old but lively city centre pub).
Evening food value, and good rage of Real Ales Poor service at breakfast.
a lovely traditional pub, and the staff were all very friendly - the food in the restaurant was excellent. The room was a bit lopsided but to be honest it added to the charm of the place so we actually quite liked it.
City center location is ideal for shops, bars, restaurants. Street noise at night (we stayed on a Friday night). Breakfast was extremely slow - 30-40 minutes wait time. Corners of the bathroom floor looked as if they hadn't been cleaned for many years. Cleaner knocked on our room door in spite of 'do not disturb' sign.
The hotel was in the centre, good food, great staff, And next time we go back to chester we are going right back to the pied bull
The staff were extremely pleasant in all areas my sister and I commented on how friendly everyone was. nothing
Location and the residents bar open till 4 am
all in all ok if you need a bed then its ok staff were polite not as friendly as some of the comparative hotels Busy but overflow car park rear with poor signs to advice you Room had signs of where and tear and looking a little worn Rooms compact
i liked the leisure faciities especially the swimming pool which was large and very well kept. the breakfast was fine but some things were slightly over cooked.
It was comfortable, had all the facilities I needed on my overnight visit. Most importantly it was just the right temperature, hotels can be too hot! and I liked the speedy pay as you go system.
Very good location, with park and ride next door. All was good
hotel location room size and bed size in 'standard' room
lovely room bar prices a little expensive
very comfortable room and good leisure facilities. pleasent relaxed restaurant serving excellent food.
Good quality hotel, but see points below. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. No Air Conditioning, no mini-bar, too close to main road with windows open as too hot without air con.
swimming pool bathroom suit needs modenisation
It's central position is the only reason we choose to stay at the Blossoms. However thinfs have improved since the re vamp, although there are still areas that need attention. The light fitting falling off the wall, that needed to be fixed. The broken crockery that had to be replaced, the requested wine glasses that never materialised, the ice bucket that took two requests to arrive, and the non exsistant phone call that we asked for to tell us our room was ready.
Unfortunately we did not stay at the Blossoms, we were moved to the Craxton Wood Hotel and were not impressed.
Excellent location and superb service as always at this hotel None other than could have done with a week of been pampered !
The fetaures of the room fitted well with the period features of Chester. Felt that it may have needed air conditioning, as on the day we stayed it was extremely clammy!
Hotel was tastefully decorated and re-furbished, and was excellent value for money, we had a fantastic stay! The hotel was extremely warm, even with the windows open, and it was snowing outside!! the radiators were always on full heat!
location,room size and cleanliness,choice at breakfast was good.Nice to see a choice of fish. Ithought the price of drinks in the bar were over the top.
Excellant location and value for money. The car park is offsite if the weather is bad or an elderly person is with you.
the location was excellent, and staff friendly and trying their best. General cleanliness in rooms was poor. toilet filthy on arrival ( was cleaned after complaint )cobwebs on bedside lamps, dust on tables and TV, menu was quite expensive, and very limited.
Location and comfort of the hotel Breakfast was a bit chaotic and service could have been quicker
The location was fantastic, and the hotel itself was beautiful. The staff were abrupt, for example when I checked in I explained I had tried to call on several occasions with regard to parking. The receptionist was very abrupt and said 'I've been on my own all day, alright?' Not my problem as far as I'm concerned. Also, the lift is very claustrophic! and I'm not Claustrophobic!!!
The hotel was smart and the rooms modern. Staff were generally helpful and the overall feel of the place was friendly. In the morning there was difficulty accommodating everyone for breakfast and we had to wait over 20 minutes to be shown to a table - I was told that this is a regular occurrence so beware if you've got an appointment to keep at a weekend! (Also, bizarrely, the invoice online and the printed copy said the cost was £59 but my card bill showed £61...couldn't quite work this one out!)
the food was nice and the whole of the room the staff werent very friendly or approchable, or offer us more drinks
the room design, cleanliness staff can be more friendly
It was noisy. Noise in the pipes and noise from disco downstairs, we were on the lst floor at the back
Excellent hotel , very modern and in a great location . Can be a little noisy at night time but dont let that put you off
Quick check-in, good location close to town, good facilities Parking limited, limited Sky channels
It was convenient for our visit to family and an event in the town. Bedside tables are impractical. The poor design made it quite dangerous to stand hot drinks on.
The staff were very helpful, food great, lots to do and a lovely relaxed atmosphere.
Location to station Being charged to use credit card, Cold foo both at breakfast and dinner Broken fittings in room particularly bathroom
Lack of info about their facilities. The hotel room didn't have any info saying what time breakfast was served or what time checkout was. This would have been useful. They also have a good gym and pool apparently but I couldn't find any info about it in the room.
The design, layout, quality and fixtures in the room and venue too. The dim lighting within the whole venue. More light is needed espescially over mirrors (for ladies applying makeup).
The quirkiness of the room Having to pay for breakfast on top of pricey room. We needed early breakfast so we could leave at 8am and this could not be accomadated. Earliest they could do was 8am - bit dissapointed about this as is was a birthday treat for my partner,
The central position / excellent shower No wardrobe
Lovely room with twin baths and very comfy bed. Staff very pleasant. My dinner in the restaurant was the smallest main course I have ever been served . It was appalling, I would not have the nerve to send something out so small if I were a chef-not good value for money . At a guess, I would say they are using one fish to get 4-6 portions. I didn't want to make a fuss and complain on the night as it was our wedding anniversary! I do feel that for the price of the room that breakfast should be included. We realised that it was not but because we wanted to stay at that hotel we decided to book anyway.
both luxury of room and wonderful meal a little expensive but not too bad
comfortable bedroom. Was offered 2 hours free wi-fi, which was a reason for choosing the hotel. But it wasn't working.
all fine except rooms dreadfully hot
Good service in the lounch. God service in the reception. The room was tidy. The chairs in the restaurans was dirty. The carpets in the hallway falling off. The breakfast was not redy at 6.30 and we where in a hurry.
I found the hotel spacious, comfortable, clean and the staff professional and friendly. Food was to a good standard. Plenty of car parking spaces close to the hotel, which makes life easier.
Modern, friendly, quiet rooms Internet access. Far too expensive in this modern world
convienance Food was pricey
The hotel could do a lot more to cater for guests who smoke. They should also ensure that all the advertised facilities are available and alert guests on arrival if there are issues around the provision of certain services.
The location. Close to motorway but with a peacefull environment. Long wait for dinner but we had not reserved a table in the restaurant. With hind site we would have opted for a bar meal. Would this have quicker service?
Gym Room was hot when I arrived
Staff were amenable to changing my room 3 times. First two rooms offered very dark and then very noisy next to air con unit. room 3 lovely. Breakfast ok but would prefer free range egg!
Totally relaxing break in a beautiful location. Really lovely family room with the most comfortable beds. I travelled with my grandchildren aged 10 and 13 but if we sat in the bar, we were not approached by the bar staff although others were well looked after. I had to go to the bar to order drinks. Was this because of the children??
Excellent rooms and comfortable accomodation, perfect for an overnight stay when en route. Friendly and welcoming staff add to the experience. The hotel's location off any major road and within a magnificent golf course setting ensures peace and quiet and a good night's sleep for those traveling. Our only criticism was the cost of meals in the brasserie. £24.50 for a lamb main course to which side courses must be added is unreasonable. If we stay at the Carden in future it would be cheaper to eat in Chester before checking in. It takes the edge of an otherwise excellent hotel.
unfortunately, I injured myself on the bed in our room 421 there were 2 small pins sticking out of the headboard which were very sharp and as I reached for the lamp switch it cut the back of my hand, I reported it to the front desk whilst checking out.
Everything about Carden Park is spot on! Lovely comfortable bedrooms and the spa is so relaxing. All the staff very helpful. Location perfect. Breakfast seemed a little hectic and could do with being more organised
Clean and spacious Nothing
stayed at the hotel for a wedding the event, it ran very smoothly and all staff were very helpful. The overall ambiance of the facilities and the quality of the food was excellent.
The room was lovely and the bathroom very spacious and well appointed. We were at a family engagemnt party and the standard of the food was excellent. The bath had the silliest plug ever as the water came out of the bath tap, straight down on to the swivel plug pushing it open every time I tried to fill it. I had to put a flannel and a full glass of water on it in the end to keep it closed. The bar prices were astronomical - I have stayed in some extremely high end hotels, such as Gleneagles and have come across nothing quite this expensive before. Although the food was excellent, the actual service was very slow indeed and there were long waits both at the start and, more importantly, between the courses. The waiting staff were competent but seemed very strained and worried all the time, which did take a bit of a shine off a vey joyful occasion.
The setting is magnificentand the hotel is very comfortable. Nothing really stands our. A couple of lights in the room were not working, but no big deal!!! We attended a charity ball on the Friday night. Food was delicious but service a bit slow we felt.
golf course in good condition cheap rates , friendly staff, good clean rooms food well below expectation,bar prices a rip off
The hotel was set in beautiful surroundings with a full range of facilities. Although most came with a cost, we made much use of the swimming pool, which was free. The staff were really helpful, the food was delicious and the whole hotel was clean and tidy. Myself and my partner are already planning our next trip as we were only there for one night and this was not enough time to enjoy the resort to its full potential. The only minor issue we had is that it was difficult to get prices for any of the activities at the resort.
The hotel itself was excellent, we could stay there again. I enjoyed using the facilities of the leisure centre. Dining was elegant. There was a family with young children above us, i could hear them running about.
Excellent facilities and accomodation, good location. Compared to all other aspects of the hotel, the breakfast was poor. Food was obviously left out for a long time and had deteriorated.
everything at the hotel was excellent but the best thing was the friendliness and efficiency of all staff from check in to check out. I was at the hotel for a family wedding and all staff were very helpful ensuring that all ran smoothly. Absolutely no complaints
Staff were very friendly and co-operative. the conference facilities were attractive and well managed My sleep was disturbed several times during the night: I was woken three times by noise outside the corridor in the late/early hours, and once in the night by heavy footsteps overhead. I was then unable to sleep from 6am-7am due to continuous heavy footsteps overhead. the acoustics really need to be reviewed and corrected, with adequate door seals and impact absorbing acoustic treatment to the upstairs floors. sleep is your core business.
Friendly Staff and Atmosphere, Good Food and spacious bedroom with comfortable mattress. Struggling to keep hotel warm during cold snap.
Friendly helpfull staff nice standard of hotel
The rooms were very clean and comfortable and I can highly recomend the fod from the bar area. Only problem we found was the main restaurant was not fantastic ,the food was average but the bar food was execllent.
nice friendly staff, very clean, good location a few more signs up telling you where things are
Very attentive staff, nothing too much trouble
I thoroughly enjoyed the pool ,steam room etc didnt have time to use the gym but looked very good. Cleanliness perfect ,I am fussy about hotels but ticked the right boxes Drinks were rather expensive even by hotel standards but captive audience

Designer Charles & Ray Eames Year 1958
The chairs in the Aluminium Group are the most famous creations by Charles and Ray Eames. Designed in 1958 they rate amongst the great achievements in the design history of the 20th century.
An important characteristic of the Aluminium Chair is the intelligent combination of materials. It has a clear, transparent form and its construction is clearly visible. Aluminium sections lend the chair both stability and lightness. The material is fixed into the side sections, yet fitted loosely so that it follows the line of the body and is comfortable without requiring extensive upholstery. This material is not a cover but an integral part of the design.

Ahead of the cost-of-living announcement shares were trying to end what has been a volatile account on a firm note. But once the extent of the fall was known gains were lost and by the close the FT-SE share index was nursing a 7.1 points fall at 2,490.8.
Interest rates remained the dominant influence. There had been hopes the inflation figures would be followed immediately by a rates cut. When one failed to materialise all the worries about the lingering recession returned to haunt the market.
The usual array of profit downgradings kept thoughts on the deteriorating prospects for company earnings and dividends.
In the account that ended yesterday the market has been dragged hither and thither by interest rate talk. Over the two weeks the Footsie fell 43.3 points.
Imperial Chemical Industries was the subject of the most intriguing market story. Rumours flowed that Goldman Sachs, the US securities house, had placed the remainder of the old Hanson stake.
But the story seemed wide of the mark. ICI shares, with Seaq putting volume at only 2 million, rose 14p to 1,163p.
Goldman acquired 20 million ICI shares at l,400p. It is known to have placed about half of them. But it is the fate of the rest that intrigues the market. Suggestions the stock was placed in the US have not been supported and there is a nagging suspicion Goldman still has some 10 million unwanted shares on its books.
The US house has almost certainly taken evasive action and hedged its ICI exposure. But any placing around the present market price would leave Goldman out of pocket.
Fisons, the drugs group, which has had a difficult time this year, was also the centre of speculation. An array of rumours swirled, ranging from further US problems to bearish comment in the weekend press. The shares fell 19p to 189p in brisk trading.
Costain, one of the walking wounded of the building sector, was also savaged. A sudden flurry of activity sent the shares tumbling 8p to 30.5p. The company denied rumours that banking support had been withdrawn.
Last month Costain said it was planning to raise cash by selling a stake in its profitable Australian coal mining operation. After making losses of pounds 69.2m it failed to pay a dividend. In December it sold its property portfolio for pounds 101.3m to cut borrowings.
Costain shares were 82p earlier this year. They reached a 358p peak in 1989.
(Graph omitted)
The start of trading in HSBC (Hongkong & Shanghai Banking Corporation) attracted keen interest. In busy trading the 75p units opened at 322p and moved ahead to 341p. The HKdollars shares, which forced the Footsie steering committee into a special meeting, moved from 330p to 351p.
But it was a hollow gain for the HKdollars units. The six market makers 'encouraged' to make a market in the shares so HSBC can replace Midland Bank in the Footsie on Monday did not record a single deal, only offering to deal in 500 shares. 'It's a joke; the Footsie committee has boobed badly,'one market maker said.
The sensitive HKdollars shares, largely traded in Hong Kong, will be included in Footsie calculations.
It is felt their presence could distort the index. Fund managers with index funds are said to be making representations over the possible HSBC impact.
Barclays de Zoete Wedd headed the downgrading brigade.
It axed its British Petroleum estimate from pounds 495m to pounds 300m because of restructuring costs and foreign exchange movements. The shares fell 6p to 203.5p.
Courtaulds, down 7p to 513p, was lowered pounds 10m to pounds 215m and from pounds 250m to pounds 235m and moved onto the BZW sell list. But the builder Taylor Woodrow suffered the harshest treatment. Profits could be wiped out this year compared with earlier hopes of a pounds 25m profit. Next year's forecast is lowered from pounds 42m to pounds 35m.
BZW feels Taylor Woodrow shares will underperform but it is too late to sell. The shares fell 1p to 78p.
It was not all downgrades. James Capel lifted its Prudential Corporation profit expectation from pounds 410m to pounds 480m because of improved investment gains and an upturn in the insurance market. The shares moved ahead 5p to 247p.
Racal Electronics edged ahead 2.25p to 67p on hopes a deal over its Chubb security systems group will be announced soon.
Shares ended a roller-coaster account with another up-and-down session. The FT-SE index ended 7.1 points down at 2,490.8 after achieving an early 9.1 gain. The FT 30-share index fell 10.2 to 1,903.7. Trading topped the break-even 500 million mark, with Seaq putting volume at 519.5 million shares from 24,968 bargains
Shares of Aegis Group, the media buyer, had another difficult session, falling 17p to a 39p low. They fell 12p on Thursday. James Capel appeared to do the damage. It cut this year's forecast from pounds 49m to pounds 32m. Aegis shares, riding at 128p earlier this year, have been uneasy since two top executives resigned when the London office was dismantled and moved to Paris.
The recovery at Wilshaw, the metals to precast concrete group, impresses the stockbroker Beeson Gregory. It believes the shares, now 15.5p, are ready for institutional support. A casualty of over-optimism, Wilshaw has experienced 'much redirection and reorganisation'. Profits should continue to improve, reaching pounds 1.9m this year followed by pounds 2.25m, Beeson says.
