Cheap Hotels in Chepstow, Monmouthshire, Wales

Chepstow sits on the River Wye at the Welsh end of the English border. This guide covers the hotels in Chepstow we could confirm from at least two sources, and we flag the places we could only find once. Chepstow Castle, the Wye Valley, and the start of Offa’s Dyke Path all sit close to town, so a short stay works well. We do not quote rates because they change daily. Check live prices and availability with each property before you book.

Where to Stay in Chepstow

Hotels in Chepstow We Could Confirm

Chepstow is a small town, so the list of hotels in Chepstow is short. Four properties passed our check. Two are full hotels, one is a pub with rooms, and one is a small guest hotel near the castle. Each entry below names the sources we used. Read the notes on pets and parking, because the sources do not always agree.

The Beaufort Hotel in Beaufort Square

The Beaufort Hotel stands in Beaufort Square, Chepstow, NP16 5EP. Call the hotel on 01291 622 497. The hotel’s own website lists 25 rooms. All rooms are en suite, and the choices run from single rooms to family rooms for three or four guests. Some rooms keep their original oak beams. Cots are available for a small extra charge, so ask when you book.

The website says dogs are welcome throughout the hotel, with a charge for each stay. Hotels.com lists dogs and cats as allowed. Confirm the pet policy by phone before you bring an animal.

Hotels.com gives check-in from 3 PM to 10 PM and check-out at 11 AM. Late arrival depends on availability, so call if your train runs late. The same listing mentions free on-site parking and an electric vehicle charging point. We found the parking detail in only one source, so confirm the detail with the hotel.

The hotel site shows a food and drink section with lunch, Sunday lunch, and table booking. Hotels.com lists two bars or lounges and a garden. The listings place Chepstow Castle, Chepstow Museum, and the railway station within walking distance. This is the best pick if you want to leave the car parked and explore on foot.

Delta Hotels by Marriott St Pierre Country Club

This is the largest of the hotels in Chepstow. The address is St Pierre Park, Chepstow, NP16 6YA, and the phone number is 01291 625261. Visit Monmouthshire describes a 14th-century manor house set in 400 acres of parkland in the Wye Valley. The grounds hold two championship golf courses.

Visit Monmouthshire lists a spa, a heated indoor pool, a fully equipped gym, and restaurants serving seasonal food and afternoon tea. Travelocity lists a hot tub, a sauna, a steam room, a driving range, and golf lessons. Both sources list free parking and free Wi-Fi. Travelocity says the property takes dogs, but confirm the policy and any fee with the hotel.

Travelocity lists check-in from 3 PM and check-out before noon. Late check-in and late check-out may carry a fee, so ask if you plan to arrive after dinner. The Travelocity listing gives 148 guest rooms, which makes this the best choice for groups, weddings, and golf trips.

The property sits outside the town centre. Travelocity lists the railway station a short drive away, so plan on a taxi or a car if you travel by train.

Two Rivers Lodge on Newport Road

Two Rivers Lodge is a pub with rooms on Newport Road, Chepstow, NP16 5PR. The pub is a Marston’s site built where the old Chepstow Hotel once stood. The CAMRA listing gives the pub phone as 01291 629159. Visit Monmouthshire lists The Two Rivers under guest accommodation, and the Trip.com listing shows 30 air-conditioned rooms with private bathrooms.

Trip.com gives check-in from 2 PM and check-out before 11 AM. The listing shows a bar and restaurant, room service, and breakfast each morning. The listing also shows free public parking, free Wi-Fi in public areas, and accessible rooms. Trip.com states pets are not allowed.

CAMRA describes a family area with a small play area and a garden. The CAMRA entry was last updated in 2019, so confirm the food and opening hours before you rely on them. The Trip.com listing places the castle and the railway station within a walk of town. This is a sensible choice for families who want a restaurant on site.

Sources: CAMRA, Visit Monmouthshire, and Trip.com.

Castle View Hotel on Bridge Street

Castle View Hotel stands at 16 Bridge Street, Chepstow, NP16 5EZ. Hotels.com and Expedia both list 11 rooms, a garden, and breakfast each morning. Both list check-in from 3 PM and check-out at 11 AM. Both list dogs and cats as welcome.

The location is the strongest selling point. Both listings place Chepstow Castle and Chepstow Museum a very short walk away. The railway station is also within walking distance.

Treat this entry with care. Hotels.com and Expedia share one data feed, so we count them as a single source. The listing page address also carries the old name Woodfield House. The sources disagree on parking. One says there is none on site, and a guest review mentions parking across the road. We found no official website, so call before you book to confirm the name, the room count, and parking.

Sources: Hotels.com and Expedia, which count as one source.

Other Places to Stay Near Chepstow

Visit Monmouthshire lists other places to stay in and around Chepstow. We found each of these in the one directory only, so we cannot confirm they are open today. Check each with a phone call or the owner’s site.

The First Hurdle Guest House is at 9-10 Upper Church Street, Chepstow, NP16 5EX. The Three Tuns is listed as guest accommodation at 32 Bridge Street, Chepstow, NP16 5EY. GreenMan Backpackers is listed as a hostel at 13 Beaufort Square, Chepstow, NP16 5EP.

The directory also lists self-catering cottages and glamping sites in the villages around Chepstow. These include Penhein Glamping at Llanvair Discoed and Hidden Valley Yurts and Lake House at Llanishen. Villages such as Itton and Devauden also appear. Expect to need a car for these stays.

Motels and Budget Options in Chepstow

We did not find a motel in Chepstow. British towns of this size rarely have motels in the American sense. Budget travellers should look at the pub with rooms, the guest houses, and the hostel listed above. We do not quote rates, so compare live prices on a booking site and then call the property to ask about direct rates.

Larger chains sit in nearby cities, including Newport and Bristol. We did not research those, so we do not list them here. Choose Chepstow itself if you want to walk to the castle and the river.

Old Listings We Dropped

The earlier version of this guide named The Old Mill and The Granary. We could not confirm either as a Chepstow lodging open for bookings. Searches for the Granary returned several unrelated holiday lets with the same name. We removed both rather than guess.

The earlier version also called The Beaufort Hotel a former coaching inn from the 17th century. We found no source for the date, so we dropped the claim. The earlier text also called Two Rivers Lodge a hotel with a play area in its bar. The CAMRA listing does describe a play area in the pub, but we cannot confirm the details today.

Things to Do Near Chepstow Castle

Chepstow Castle is the main sight in town. Cadw describes a clifftop fortress above the River Wye. Building began in 1067, which makes the castle one of the first Norman strongholds in Wales. The address is Bridge Street, Chepstow, NP16 5EY, and the Cadw phone number is 03000 252239.

Cadw lists winter hours of 10 AM to 4 PM from 1 November to 28 February, with last entry 30 minutes before closing. Hours are longer from March to October. The castle is closed on 24, 25, and 26 December and on 1 January. Extreme weather can close the site at short notice, so check Cadw before you go.

Cadw rates the terrain as moderate. The main path is a steep slope, and the site has uneven historic steps and several flights of stairs. Dogs on short leads may enter ground-floor areas only. A pay-and-display car park sits just below the entrance.

Tintern Abbey lies further up the Wye Valley. Cadw says Cistercian monks founded the abbey in 1131, and the roofless ruins stand on the river bank. The address is Tintern, NP16 6SE. Winter hours match the castle. Travelocity lists Tintern Abbey a short drive from the St Pierre hotel.

Walkers can start the Wales Coast Path and Offa’s Dyke Path at Chepstow. The Wales Coast Path site describes a circular walk of 5.3 miles from Chepstow railway station to Sedbury Cliffs and back. Sedbury Cliffs is the southern end of Offa’s Dyke Path. The route passes the Priory Church of St Mary and the Old Wye Bridge, which dates from 1816. The terrain includes steep, narrow paths and road sections, so wear sturdy shoes.

The national trail website says Offa’s Dyke Path runs 177 miles from Sedbury Cliffs to Prestatyn and takes about two weeks to walk. Chepstow is a natural place to sleep before the first day.

Getting to Chepstow and Choosing a Base

The Wales Coast Path site says trains run to Chepstow from Cardiff, Cheltenham Spa, and Birmingham. The same site says buses link Chepstow with Newport and Bristol. Check live timetables before you travel, because services change.

Pick the Beaufort Hotel or Castle View Hotel if you want to walk to the castle and the station. Pick Two Rivers Lodge for a family stay with a restaurant. Pick the St Pierre hotel for golf, a spa, and parkland. Book early for summer weekends and for race days at Chepstow Racecourse, which Hotels.com lists nearby.

Always ask about parking, pets, and breakfast when you call. The listings differ on all three.

What We Checked and What We Could Not

We checked each hotel against at least two sources, and we named those sources in each entry. We checked the Cadw pages for the castle and the abbey. We checked the Wales Coast Path and national trail pages for the walks.

We could not confirm current room rates, current availability, or breakfast terms. We could not confirm check-in times with the hotels directly. We did not find an official website for Castle View Hotel or Two Rivers Lodge. Call each property to confirm every detail before you travel.
