The Kings Head, hotel in Dorking

Located in Dorking, 10 miles from Box Hill, The Kings Head provides accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a terrace and a restaurant.

Amazing breakfast made by the hostess Janet! She had been so warm and friendly to me throughout my stay. I highly recommend staying here for a quick English getaway especially if you are visiting the nearby Shere and the quaint surrounding Surrey forests. Lovely homemade English biscuit she made for me too! Thank you so much Janet!

The Bear Esher, hotel in Dorking

This Grade II heritage-listed traveler's inn features free private parking and is a 10-minute walk from Sandown Racecourse.

The hotel was perfect and the staff was wonderful, especially the manager Jacob! We booked last minute after flying from the US and they had our room ready in less than an hour so we were able to get some much needed sleep. The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was amazing. We will definitely stay here again if we ever get the chance!

José Pizarro The Swan Inn, hotel in Dorking

The critically acclaimed Spanish chef José Pizarro opens the doors of his fourth venue to welcome guests in the beautiful town of Esher.

Our first time to England and the Swan Inn was exceptional! It was everything we wanted, to be in the history and culture of England! We enjoyed the small town down the road and the train station was very close.

    The room was really nice, clean and smelled good. There was a smart TV in the room. We had dinner and breakfast in the pub downstairs where there were some toys and games for the littles ones and the possibility to order a smaller fish and chips. Very friendly staff.

    This is a lovely hotel in a beautiful setting - rolling lawns, mature trees and great views in all directions. And just 20 minutes from home, yet we only just heard of it. Faultless - comfortable bed and room, excellent dinner and breakfast and helpful and friendly staff. We hope to be regulars.

    It was one of our best stays! The attention to detail, the cleanliness, the friendliness of the staff and the location was absolutely outstanding! When we entered the room, classical music was playing, it was a winner for us. We felt spoiled and like in a fairytale. Highly recommend the Hotel!

    Well presented hotel with nice public areas and rooms. Pleasant staff. Really nice restaurant area and a well priced dinner menu. Overall a great 1 night stay for couples exploring that area of Surrey with good access to NT properties in the area.
