Stayed at The Bear for two nights. Food was good. Room was modern and comfortable, however, minor issues let it down. Tap on bathroom sink loose and wood panelling behind bed needed a good dust. Plenty of soft towels. Pleased to see non slip mat in shower.

The welcome from staff set the tone - Marty was incredibly friendly and personable. The room was comfortable and amenities were well presented. The atmosphere in the bar was chilled and relaxed and the restaurant service was good despite two big events happening that evening.

Room was comfortable and shower was a good size. I really liked the downstairs décor and outdoor space. Food though was mediocre, We had the Sunday roast but presentation was lacking and it looked like the roast potatoes had seen the oven a few times. i would not try again. A couple of doors down there is a giggling squid which ids well worth a visit. Waitrose and Tesco are also nearby. It is a Young's pub so good beer.

Fab location, centre of town. Great service. Nicely decorated room, super comfy beds. Lovely food, (we only had breakfast which catered for everyone’s needs). Nothing was too much. Marty was a superstar. Bent over backwards to accommodate us.

We booked The Bear, as part of company hospitality event at the racecourse. Also being referred by other members of the company who are based in Surrey. Parking was slightly ropey, but we did manage to get into the car park. The building is lovely, so much character. The room was nice, slightly on the small side. Nicely done, for the price point. My only real critique in the room is the pillows, new ones are needed and the shower needs fixing, so the head can be supported, without having to held. I would definitely request a rear room, as the road side is very noisy. I think the hotel really needs to print an invoice off for guests at check it. Instead, nothing is handed over. An amount is charged (which guests have no chance to rectify) then the invoice arrives 1-2 days after the stay.

This is the 2nd time I've stayed at The Bear. The staff are always friendly and helpful. The rooms are really nice and modern. The bathroom had recently been refitted and was really nice. The beds are comfortable. The rooms are clean. The best bit for me though is the breakfast! It's always lush.

Absolutely wonderful!! The staff were so helpful & friendly. The manager (Jake)we think that was his name, was particularly helpful & welcoming. The room was spacious with a Suoerking bed. Coffee maker. Milk in the fridge along with lots of treats to purchase with an“honesty”policy. Also two free delicious brownies waiting on our arrival. Lovely bespoke breakfast. Perfect situation in the town & a 5 minute walk to the theatre where we saw a brilliant show.

Another excellent stay at a lovely hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful and the rooms are comfortable. A lively evening in the bar with some great live entertainment was a great way to complete our stay. A full English before leaving was a great way to complete the stay. Many thanks to all the staff for a great stay
