Find stays near Chepstow Racecourse on the map ↓Chepstow Racecourse is north of the town, so the hotel decision is about the evening and road journey as well as the meeting. Beaufort Square puts the stay among historic central streets; Newport Road offers a more parking-led hotel routine. Choose the Welsh Grand National, autumn festival or another fixture on its own terms, then match the ticket to the correct entrance. Premier and Grandstand access are not interchangeable simply because the hotel is in Chepstow.
FIND YOUR BASE
Beaufort Square gives a historic-town hotel evening, with streets and dining to enjoy before the meeting. It suits a stay that makes Chepstow itself part of the trip.
Good for: A town-centre meal and race break.
Before you choose: The course lies north of town. Confirm the road or pedestrian approach rather than treating a central hotel as racecourse-side.
Newport Road provides a more road-led hotel choice with parking, away from the older central streets. It suits visitors who put an uncomplicated vehicle arrival ahead of the historic setting.
Good for: A driving-based overnight with a family-room option.
Before you choose: The racecourse is still a separate journey and the town evening needs its own route. Parking at the hotel does not replace event directions.

Newport Road gives the parking-led alternative, with the specified family or accessible room to reserve.
Before you book: Request the accessible room specification if needed and confirm family beds. Plan any journey into the historic town centre separately from the Newport Road address.

FAMILY BREAKS
A family ticket does not guarantee a place to sit. Match the programme length and seating product with the youngest visitors, then reserve the actual bed arrangement.
ROMANTIC BREAKS
Beaufort Square suits dinner and a short historic-street wander. Newport Road is useful when parking and a straightforward hotel routine matter more than being among those streets.
A LITTLE ROOM TO EXPLORE
Arrive for Beaufort Square or Newport Road, give the Chepstow fixture the main day and keep the old bridge for a short departure stop.
Settle into the selected room and have dinner in the town or at the hotel. Check the ticket’s entrance and the next day’s course journey.
Use the Premier or Grandstand approach appropriate to the meeting. Allow for the outdoor day and limited unreserved seating.
For a later departure, add a short town-and-Wye stop near the old bridge. From Newport Road, include the separate journey into the historic centre or keep breakfast and depart.
Less time? For one night, keep the chosen hotel evening and race meeting. Omit the old-bridge stop when the onward journey leaves little time.
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
The course identifies a Premier-only entrance opposite the pedestrian crossing and Grandstand and Paddock turnstiles reached through the car-park underpass. Single-enclosure meetings have their own arrangement; follow the fixture’s instruction.
No. Unless a reserved seat, restaurant or hospitality product is included, seating is limited and mostly outdoors. Choose the ticket accordingly if sitting is essential to the day.
The current FAQ says ordinary child tickets are collected at the gate, with exceptions for festival fixtures and live-after-racing events. Check those exceptions for your actual meeting before booking the family room.
The operator says there are no cash machines. Bars and eateries take card or contactless payments, while betting has a separate cash option; bring what you need rather than relying on a withdrawal.
No. The operator lists different three-person arrangements and a separate four-person layout. Confirm the exact beds and floor, especially when comparing it with the Two Rivers family category.
