Excellent Hotel, staff were brilliant, bedroom really comfortable.

Lovely staff, but a disappointing stay
Unfortunately my stay here was not the greatest. The rooms are looking shabby, the bed is possibly the most uncomfortable I've slept on (with pretty much non-existent pillows), and the food was poor (cold soup and 'sourdough bruschetta' which turned out to be a toasted piece of packaged sliced bread with barely cooked pan fried peppers & onions). Disappointing. The staff were lovely though - which is why I'm ashamed to say I didn't bring up the problems at the time.

I stayed in some of the very best hotels as those for them or budget minded, and I would say this was good value and quality.

Lovely hotel/pub. Despite the rooms being above a pub you cannot hear any noise from the pub in the evening. All staff are very friendly.

4/10 Fair

Not the best of experiences. Very odd check in ! Took an age to get into the car park (I ended up having to enter the property as no one was answering the gate phone or my attempts calling the property) no apologies made either. Room key only works after 3 attempts. Very small room which was ok but the bathroom very dated.

Our Overnight stay at the Bear Hotel
From the time we arrived to the time of departure , the management and staff could not be more helpful. Very happy and accommodating throughout our stay. Food was 100% and vey filling as well! Would totally recommend to family and friends to stay there if in Esher at all. We would definitely go back again.

The Bear is my Hotel of choice when attending the Royal Artillery Gold Cup at Sandown Park. It is within walking distance of the race course, has above average amenities and copes with a large crowd of rather loud veteran servicemen post races with friendliness and humour. Millie, who was on duty on the day of arrival and on departure was exceptional. A charming, helpful and lovely young lady who made an old soldier very welcome.

WORST ROOM IVE EVER STAYED IN BY FAR!!! V V V LOUD
Lovely staff, lovely room but total utter disaster of a stay!!! I’ve travelled ALOT! This has to be the worst room EVER!!!! What seemed like right on top of a karaoke bar! I had earplugs but you could still feel the base thumping through the floor until midnight! I may aswell have gone down stairs & tried to sleep on the dance floor!!!
Annabel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This has so much potential. The welcome was lovely, but the first thing we were told, after being given our key was that the battery was dying on the pad, so we would have to tap it 3 times. The room was spacious, with a ridiculous full mini fridge- only alcohol no other space! The toilet roll holder was broken and missing. The bed was very comfortable. The shower, really did not work; there was no power; it would not stay up, kept dropping down - very disappointing. We had breakfast, which was good, but the grapes that were on the table were mouldy. None of the plates from previous guests had been cleared away on 3 tables, leaving us with no choice where to sit.
