From the Wikipedia article
The Chester Grosvenor Hotel is a hotel in Chester, Cheshire, England. The Grade II listed building was built between 1863 and 1865 and is owned by the Duke of Westminster. The long-standing establishment features an on-site restaurant that was previously awarded a Michelin star since 1990, however the restaurant failed to retain its Michelin Star in 2022's Michelin Guide following an extended period of closure due to COVID-19. The restaurant has since reopened, and is in the process of being assessed for the absent Michelin Star. The hotel is now operated by Bespoke Hotels.
