We needed a nice hotel in the area to attend a wedding, This was not the right choice! We booked the hotel based on their website description, thinking we were going to be staying in a very nice country village pub with a lot of history. When we arrived on a hot summer's evening we were confronted with the front... More

The rooms were very clean and the staff very helpful (we were moved to the Inn at the last minute after a burst water pipe elsewhere). While clean and with all the essentials such as lovely big towels, big TV and a comfortable bed everything was just a bit faded and dated. Chipped paint, lino coming away from the side... More

The hotel is a fifteenth century building with lots of character. Sadly, the breakfast was a total shambles - the remains of breakfasts still on table, not cleared away; no coffee or milk to replace that already consumed; only one member of staff on duty (apparently a girl from foreign parts with little English, who seemed bemused when asked for...

This place needs a dramatic makeover. Travellers' tastes have moved on considerably since this place's last face lift in the 70s. 'Breakfast' was a pathetic couple of pieces of white processed bread which we fought over good naturedly with our fellow diners. It would have been funny had it not been so over priced. Stay away.

Awful place, badly run, poor reception, no parking, slow food service, mediocre food, stained duvet, damp on the walls, awful decor and furniture, the most uncomfortable bed I have slept in in ages. Do not book here, ever. More

Year on year The Chequers seems to be becoming more and more delapidated. We're in the middle of a harsh recession, and with customers demanding higher standards for their hard earned pound, the Chequers Inn is appearing an increasingly weak player in the remaining catering businesses in Forest Row. Reading through some of these reviews it's clear that the business... More

I often travel with business and have stayed in all standards of b&B and hotels and this is by far one of the worst! Reception stinks of greasy food, the rooms are something out of the 70's with vile pink towels. There are bits all over the carpet so had to keep shoes at the side of the bed &... More
