Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers a lovely stay with views over Epsom Racecourse and great cafe-style breakfast. The rooms provide good views across the downs, but some additional toiletries would have been appreciated. The service, while responsive, lacked a personal touch at times. The location is ideal for racecourse enthusiasts and nature lovers alike. The dining experience was satisfactory with a focus on serving Heinz baked beans. Overall, the hotel provides a comfortable and convenient stay with some room for improvements.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious, with a comfortable bed and fabulous views over Epsom Racecourse. The service was attentive, although a bit distracted at times. The location was perfect, right on the racecourse, and the dining options were satisfactory. The facilities offered added to the overall experience.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with stunning views over Epsom Racecourse and spacious rooms. The service was attentive, but there were moments where personal attention was lacking. The location right on the racecourse was convenient, and I enjoyed the dining experience at The Rubbing House. However, the facilities could use some improvements.
