\"HorseLocated just North of the Cheltenham city centre, the Cheltenham Racecourse<\/a> is located in the picturesque Gloucestershire countryside. If you plan on attending a horseracing event at the Racecourse, there are plenty of great places to stay in and around the racecourse with locations in Cheltenham Town Centre, Charlton Kings, Cleve Hill and further afield. Below is a list of accommodation options in Cheltenham sorted by hotels<\/a>, bed & breakfasts<\/a> and apartments<\/a> and their distances to the Cheltenham Racecourse. We also provide approximate walking times and driving times from each guest house to the racing venue.<\/p>\n

We strongly recommend booking your accommodation well in advance of your visit to the Cheltenham Racecourse, as the more popular race days, such as the Cheltenham Festival<\/a> (which attracts over 200,000 visitors a year) will book up rather quickly!<\/p>\n

Getting to the Racecourse<\/h3>\n

Getting to the racecourse from where you\u2019re staying in Cheltenham is easy whether you\u2019re an avid walker, prefer driving, getting a cab, taking the train or jumping on a bus. Some hotels, such as the 5-star Ellenborough Park Hotel even provide a complimentary shuttle for their guests to and from the Cheltenham Racecourse on race days. For those staying in the city centre, there are regular buses. Stagecoach service D, for example, runs every 10 minutes during the day and at least once an hour during the evenings. Service 527 also has a regular bus schedule. For local and up-to-date Stagecoach information, you can call 08706 082 608.<\/p>\n

During the Cheltenham Festival and the Open, there is an additional shuttle bus service that operates between the Cheltenham Spa Railway Station and outside of the WH Smith\u2019s in the centre of Cheltenham to the Racecourse. A single fare starts at \u00a32.50 and a return fair costs \u00a35.<\/p>\n
