Our room at chequers was really big extra large bed really cosy bathroom had a bath and shower some what hard to get out of the bath as the handrails were in a awkward place on the bath . On first impressions of the hotel was really nice until you look a little closer some of the furniture in the reception area could be updated as the leather on the arms of the chairs were really badly worn and that's the first thing you see when you walk through the hotel reception area . But on the whole a great place to stay good walk up to the town lots of great pubs for meals and drinks . Ample parking for the car

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Chequers. The hotel is clean, well kept and convenient for all local amenities. The staff were very professional and polite and happy to help at every turn. Highlight for me, apart from the location, was the plentiful parking available and the breakfast was delightful and incredibly good value for money. A thoroughly enjoyable stay and highly recommended.

Fair amount ot parking spaces but if you are going to Newmarket Racing then i would get there early, we arrived at around 12pm and managed to grab the last empty parking space thankfully. Staff were lovely, allowed us early check in and were very helpful with Taxis and restaurant recommendations (we ate in Burkha round the corner and the food was beautiful! I had one of the Executive rooms which was nice and spacious. Will definitely stay again next time i go to the races.

First off the staff were lovely and so helpful. The hotel itself could do with more attention to detail - we got a free room upgrade but only because the toilet seat came off in our hands first use. Second room was very spacious but there wete issues - its an old building so we were expecting uneven floors - leaking showers not so much, flickering lights when first switched on. A lot of the communal areas really needed some TLC - its location to Newbury is very good - we were using the hotel as a base for visiting Highclere and enjoyed wandering round Newbury highstreet.

Good location in town centre, parking on site, very nice friendly and helpful staff. Food & drink good. Nice decor and room tidy. Only complaint - room was on the front and noisy with traffic - requires double glazing and better coverage curtains to stop car lights. Traffic is light but the windows are old and offer no sound reduction. But I would be happy to stay again - in a different room.
