契克斯旅館 (Chequers Inn)

Very convinient hotel to view everuthing in battle. Clean rooms and very friendly staff. About 7 mins walk to station and 7 mins to battle abbey. Easy access.

The location of the Chequers Inn was perfect while visiting relatives in Battle, but it is on the corner of a busy roundabout so tends to be a little noisy. Our room was quaint with its sloping floors and exposed beams, while the mishmash of circa 1970 furniture was quite quirky. The bed was modern and very comfortable! However, the room and bathroom were in need of some TLC in terms of replacements and repairs. While our room was serviced the first full day we were there, we were surprised on the second day to come back after a day out to find that other than placing a bottle of water in our room, no other service had been done. If it is their policy not to service rooms daily, we were not informed. Our room was adequate, but it was not luxury. The rooms are not wheelchair accessible and the stairs could present problems for some mobility impaired people. We were welcomed, but we rarely saw the same person twice. We walked through the bar to get to our room without bar staff questioning where we were going. Amazingly, there is no guest code or key to access the accommodation so anyone can wander up to the rooms without being noticed. We did not eat at Chequers Inn, but would probably have had breakfast if it had begun service before 9 a.m. which was not convenient for us.
