All, good at the property. Serving staff, were a little slow .. seem to be understaffed. On site parking bays are difficult to get into and out of .

Thank you for your comments.Unfortunately where we are such a small team if someone calls in ill, it does make it more difficult for us.Our car park, yes is rather quirky, but on street parking is available free on some of the High Street after 4pm

I stayed right at the top in a double with low ceilings, a view over rooftops to hills. En suite bathroom with bath no shower. The stairs are quite a few but you can pause half way up to look at antiques. There is no lift. Bed was very comfortable indeed. Would have liked a shower attachment in bath to wash hair. The snug bar at ground floor is very cosy. The receptionist was very helpful with advice and a phone charger for my sister. Arundel is a lovely but very steep town. Bring your walking shoes. Loved my room great nights sleep, interesting books in the room. Toiletries and hair dryer provided.

Thank you for your 5 out of 5 and we are delighted you enjoyed your stay in one of our comfort double rooms.Unfortunately, with the low ceilings and water pressure we are unable to attach shower hoses, which is why we leave the authentic jug for washing the hair..We do hope you will stay with us again next time you are in Arundel.

Great location. Comfortable room, however being a courtyard room it was subject to noisy industrial bins being moved around before 8am. Also woken by fire alarm that went off twice.

Thank you for your comments, and we are happy that you found the room comfortable. We can only apologise for the laundry bins being moved early morning, and have spoken to Housekeeping about this.When the fire alarm goes off we have to investigate the area where the alarm has gone off. This is for everyone's safety.We hope to see you again when you are next in Arundel.Kind RegardsSue

great location. lovely courtyard rooms.
the courtyard rooms are comfortable. the bed was very comfortable too. parking £6 a day in their car park. excellent location right in the centre of arundel and opposite restaurants and cafes. few mins walk to the castle and the river. the food was excellent if a bit pricy but we found all the restaurants were about the same price as the hotel. the courtyard could do with resurfacing. you do get noise from people sitting in the courtyard as the bedroom windows open on to the courtyard where people are chatting. we will definitely return.

Bit disappointed
I stay fairly frequently here and the service was great as always, the staff are super, we had dinner as well which is highly recommended. But, I stayed in a bath only room (27) and the hot tap just didn’t run, I mean it dribbled to a stop and that is not good enough. On checkout I was advised the pump was broken, but that being the case they should have called me and advised this, there are many places to stay in Arundel and I could have altered my stay, assuming they were fully booked. Like I will when I next book, ask the question are the taps for the bath working…..shame as I do like it at this hotel.
