The chessington hotel is one of our favourite places to stay! You don't need to splash out on the themed rooms the basic ones are all you need. Chessington World of Adventures is perfect for children over 0.9 and up to around 10 years old, or those who don't like crazy rollercoasters.

Reviews Summary

The Chessington Oak is generally praised for its family-friendly atmosphere, good value, and excellent accommodation of dietary needs, particularly for gluten-free, dairy-free, and vegetarian options. However, some diners have experienced significant wait times and issues with food quality, such as burnt buns or cold meals, leading to disappointment.

"Lovely meal, very welcoming staff. Able to eat being gluten free, dairy free AND vegetarian! Not just ‘eat’ but it was very tasty. Good prices. Were helpful putting a candle in my daughters’ pudding for her birthday. My free from pudding was gorgeous. Lovely generous helpings in the sundaes. Perfect for after a day in the theme park too before the journey home and skip the traffic."

Deana Romaine

"The burger... oh my God... an hour wait in a deserted pub for a burnt bun charred and disgusting. Yet the chips stone cold. No check back. No one could care less.
A table of 9 people adds 1 to 1.5 hour delay to a simple chicken burger.
Told the guy it was burnt and hideous - but he laughed and walked off saying "yeah I'll let the chef know"!!

Place is empty as can see in photos, imagine the delay if 2 or 3 tables turned up!
No one checked if food was good, but even if complain are dismissive.

Recommendation: Save your money, do not visit. Not worth it."

Chris

"Very nice place. Good value for money. Staff friendly and attentive. Food was good quality. 6+ meal was a fraction small but not anything to complain about. Would highly recommend."
