About The Bear Hotel
A Sunday roast worth mentioning is one of the small pleasures at The Bear Hotel, a High Street hotel in Esher, Surrey. The property pairs old-fashioned hospitality with practical extras, including free on-site parking, though this can be limited at busier times. Its restaurant and bar serve breakfast alongside more traditional meals, and the garden offers a quiet spot to sit outside.
Rooms come with en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning and free WiFi, with room service and drinks available for those who prefer not to leave their room. The hotel also functions as a wedding venue, and staff are noted for being helpful and easy to deal with throughout a stay.
Esher itself is close by, and the wider area offers a golf course, pubs, restaurants and entertainment within easy reach, with Ascot Racecourse also nearby for those after a day out. It's a straightforward base for exploring Surrey, whether for business, a wedding, or simply a comfortable night's stay.

I stayed at the Bear whilst working away from home. The staff, especially those on my first night, were super friendly which made my first hotel stay on my own less daunting and they really put me at ease. I used the bar a couple of evenings, which had a lovely cosy feel. Good food and drinks selection however a couple of meals I wanted were unavailable, which is to be expected. The third option I went for was tasty, a salad but the lettuce was definitely past its best - a minor criticism. The food did come quickly. All in all a great stay and I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again if I’m working that way again.

We chose to hold a business launch event at The Bear, with around 50 businesses attending, and everything from the initial planning through to the close of the event was executed perfectly. The team listened carefully to our requirements and had everything prepared exactly as requested. The room was set up perfectly, including AV equipment and a projector for the presentation, with the layout arranged to comfortably accommodate all attendees. The food was fresh, well prepared, and extremely popular with guests. It was served in intervals throughout the event, which helped maintain quality and meet demand. Overall, the service was exemplary and exceeded our expectations. The local business community will definitely continue to support The Bear for future events.

Surprisingly nice and comfy hotel although parking on site is limited. Entrance through pub, whilst reception and rooms up steep small staircase (not for big suitcases). Rooms comfy and well equipped with a old-fashion chic style. Rooms at front over main uunction suffer road noise until late-ish but quiet thereafter Friendly service in bar and restaurant although good other choices can be find in the town.
