Lovely location with beautiful decor in the main building. The leisure facilities are fantastic, very modern and well maintained. The hotel bed was incredibly comfortable and the breakfast was the most delicious hotel breakfast we’ve ever had.

I was placed in the new building and could hear the bins being emptied each morning and so after the second morning I complained about being awoken at 5am and the room was changed.
However, we ordered takeaway and had it in the room. The cleaners returned, topped up the towels, the beverages, made the bed and left all the rubbish. There was a smell in the room when we returned....and yes, we did place the card outside the door asking for a clean (room 3105). Unsurprisingly, upon our return we were also greeted by the smell of the food which was sat in the room all day.

The food is excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful. Sandbach is lovely place to visit with lots of different historical places to visit. It’s also near Manchester and Liverpool Airports

The View is in a very central location of Sandbach, easy access to everywhere.
The town is well kept, pretty, with some oldie worldly buildings and cobbles in main street and square. Flower boxes everywhere. Plenty of character in the heart of Sandbach.

We have stayed at Bears Head a few times and overall it has been a pleasant stay and the breakfast was very good. The walkways are grimy and the rooms need some TLC, They were to be refurbished. Delayed for various reasons but now planned for September 2023.
However this stay 23 August 23, the cleanliness was rock bottom with the pillows ( no pillow protectors) just yellow stains all over the pillows and they smelt horrible and the two chairs hadn't been cleaned in years

Have stayed at this hotel 3 times now.
Have stayed at this hotel 3 times now. A good location for access to places of interest. As well as Sandbach there are other attractive small towns locally. Very good Farm activity child friendly attractions nearby, Wheelock Hall farm was excellent. Jodrell Bank observatory is great for a good family day out. Hotel is within easy reach of Knutsford and Tatton Park. There’s a train station with parking in Holmes Chapel to get into Manchester easily. Overall a very good location.

We got there just before they closed due to a late running of a ferry from the Isle of Man, so sadly we could not sample their food and as we did not have breakfast either we couldn't sample that either. The beds, though, were excellent and we both 'slept like a log' !! The staff, too, were really helpful and did an excellent job - WELL DONE to them as well!!
Disliked · Other people staying at the hotel could have been told to be quieter when moving about in the early morning as they woke me up when I was still very tired. Other than that, everything was great.

The accommodation is just right if you’re using it as a base from which to explore the area or visit family, as I was. Very peaceful at night, the bed was very comfortable and linen spotlessly clean; I slept so well!! Then I had a gorgeous hot power shower in the morning to wake me up! Car parking is excellent as is the night access if you’re having a late night as I did!! Breakfast is not included but is inexpensive and was very substantial - I didn’t need lunch! The friendly and caring bar & cleaning staff all deserve a mention too, thank you all of you.
The house was decorated lovely and very clean. Plenty of space and perfect to walk into sandbach. Thought of everything. Double bed is extra large and very comfy. Great bath and powerful shower. Sofa Bed was made up for us on arrival in lounge. It is literally 3 mins walk into the lovely village which is beautiful with lots of pubs and shops. Our stay was visiting family who live in alsager. We will definitely come and stay again.
Another really enjoyable stay at the Bears Head. It is ideally located for the M8 and its proximity to Holmes Chapel means that you have a range of dinging options for a longer stay. That said, the hotel has a great restaurant and is well utilized by both locals and residents. Staff are really friendly, accommodating and helpful and staying there is a real pleasure.
See you again soon.
Staff were friendly and attentive even with the extra Covid difficulties and running around for us.. Room was clean and comfortable. Location was central and easy to find. Car park is not at the side of the hotel but at the back, ( needs better signs) but when we found it there was enough space for us , and a free car park in a hotel is rare so a good point for travellers.
Lovely apartment. Clean, spacious and very well presented! Great location - would definitely stay again when we’re back in Sandbach visiting family! Only one thing was missing for me personally and that was a hair dryer (but I guess you can pack your own) but not always ideal when trying to pick light for a weekend trip.
We were prepared for a Continental breakfast and it was very good, including a warmed Croissant. It was quiet at night and the bed comfortable. We were unable to explore Sandbach, an enchanting little place, this time but did find the Fish and Chip shop at the Top of the Hill easy to get to and very good, price and food.
The set up appears strange as 2 business interact, in the same building.
However it works very well, unlike other hotels with a pub nearby ( you know the ones) that you wander out for breakfast.
All was very good, breakfast was stunning and have information on your other places to stay.
Thank you
Beautiful hotel with restaurant. lovely outdoor seating area at the back close to the carpark. Lovely large room with bathtub and shower. beautifully decorated. Staff were super lovely with great personalities a great attribute to the company. The breakfast was well made and very delicious.
There are lots of choices for foods and drinks. We found their foods not only delicious but also of "American" sizes! Compared with the lunch we had at the Italian restaurant on the other side of the street, the dinner in the hotel is much better for money! We will definitely return!
Perfectly, located hotel. Very close to motorway and the town of Sandbach. Whilst being close to the motorway you do not hear any traffic noise at all. The staff were polite and friendly. They were also very helpful and were happy to arrange anything that was needed.
Helpful staff, a couple of minor things went wrong (eg room key failed on second day coffee machine didn't work at first) but they fix them attentively and quickly which is always a sign of a good hotel. Food was, as usual, of a very high standard.
We loved how perfect this place was for our family: the toys and books for the kids and the garden were ideal. The location is gorgeous, beside the fishing lakes. Peaceful, but also ideally located for lots of Cheshire attractions.
Did not stop for breakfast as i left early next morning, The accommodation was ideal for me as i was meeting some friends in Sandbach, I would stay there again if in that area
Great venue, great rooms, very clean, great beds, good food, friendly staff. Highly recommended if you like traditional pub/Hotel buildings. Will go back when next in area.
