“Home from hone”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2012

Having relocated to Pulborough on business I have been staying in Chequers for over three months. Throughout this time I have had a warm and hospitable welcome from Peter and his team. The rooms are spotless and a little quirky and the food is tasty and well presented. Often my colleagues and I have made suggestions as to how our stay can be improved and each time these were met and exceeded. Every request was accommodated and we were made to feel like very special guests. I will be delighted to return to this hotel as a leisure guest and thank each one of the staff for making me so welcome.

Thank you for your review following your visit. May I say how sorry I was to read your comments which were very suprising. Our Manager in Chequers is very popular with our guests and I am most suprised that he came across as rude as this is not his usual demeanour at all. If the bar is quiet then we do sometimes ask guests to take their drinks through into the sitting room while the restaurant is set up for breakfast but we would never ask guests to go to bed and they are more than welcome to stay in the sitting room as long as they wish as guests often do.

I am sorry if the managers comments were misunderstood and assure you that he would not mean to come across as rude.

“Disappointing”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 December 2011

We stayed for one night recently and were really looking forward to the weekend based upon how the hotel advertises itself as the 'best kept secret in Pulborough'. Our room was old, dingy and tacky with a very uncomfortable bed. We came down in the morning for breakfast and had to walk through a freezing sitting room. Very unwelcoming to say the least! A roaring fire in the sitting room fireplace on a cold December morning would have been nice. We ate dinner in the dining room the evening before. The food was good but there was a very distinct smell of damp in the restaurant which may the dining experience unpleasant. It was a very disappointing stay.

“Our second visit was even better!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 August 2011

Having stayed at The Chequers earlier this year we were eager to renew our acquaintance with this lovely hotel. It is so full of old-fashion charm we regard it as a "gem" in the heart of Sussex countryside.
We were so lucky to get our favourite room, number 2, which is so full of character. The ensuite was immaculate so top marks to the cleaning staff. The bedroom also was spotless. So no cause for complaint there.
We took all of our meals in the hotel restaurant as there is no reason to seek food elsewhere. Why? Because the chef is excellent. Peter introduced himself to us when checking if our food was ok. He gave us some history of his culinary experiences which all adds to the enjoyment of the meal.
Taking our morning coffee (they have an expresso macine!!) in the delightlful gardens was an added pleasure.
We understand that the hotel is currently for sale so lets hope that the new owners keep up the current excellent standards.

One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Warm and friendly service, very clean and comfortable rooms, great food and lovely garden. All set in a typical English village with beautiful views. I will definitely stay there again.
