Overlooking the historic market place of Wantage in Oxfordshire since the 16th century, The Bear Hotel has always been a staging point for weary travellers and today provides the perfect venue for a relaxing stop-over or longer break.

After paying in excess of £1.75 million for the hotel in 2006, Arkell's have proudly made The Bear their first purchase in the town.

The Bear has 37 en-suite bedrooms - all with the amenities you would expect from a hotel renowed for offering first class accommodation and comfort.

For food, The Bear excels as well. The Alexander's Restaurant is one of the outstanding features of the hotel, situated on the first floor with views over the market place and courtyard.

And for business meetings and conferences, the Ascot Suite is a purpose-built conference centre which is situated on the ground floor with direct sunlight.

The charm of the spacious Ascot Suite is also the perfect setting for weddings, anniversaries or special celebrations, with its own fully-equipped bar providing the opportunity to enjoy any special occasion in complete privacy.
