Old King's Head Hotel, Chester, Grade II* listed timber-framed pub in Lower Bridge Street, Chester, England

The Old King's Head Hotel features a three-story structure with yellow sandstone facings, slate roofs, and multiple gabled bays facing Lower Bridge Street and Castle Street.

Originally constructed in 1208 as the town house for Peter the Clerk, the administrator of Chester Castle, the building underwent modifications between the 15th and 17th centuries.

Located at 48-50 Lower Bridge Street, the establishment operates from 12:00 PM to 11:00 PM Sunday through Thursday, and until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays.

The hotel offers ghost hunting adventures with night-vision cameras, allowing guests to investigate and record potential paranormal activities during their overnight stays.
