The comfort of the old hotel and the service were as good as anywhere that I have stayed. It's right in the heart of downtown Starkville with plenty of eating options and activities minutes away! Dave & Suki are phenomenal hosts and truly care about the customer's experience when staying at the Hotel Chester!

Restful
We ere visiting Starkville for the first time and needed a place for 1 night. This was a great spot to rest and crash for the night. The staff was very considerate and responsive and the room was simple and elegant. We will definitely stay here again if back in Starkville.

Charming and comfortable
Absolutely charming and above average comfort level. This historic hotel has been beautifully restored with replica period pieces without sacrificing modern convenience.
