We loved the relaxed beautiful interior of the Inn. The staff were so kind, friendly polite. I would like to thank a Caroline who asked the kitchen to put 2 Sunday rost aside for us and as she left at the end of her shift on reception came into the sitting to tell us she had made sure we would have a rosy dinner that evening

We requested and received ground floor rooms as there is no elevator on the property. Check in was quick and easy and our room clean and well equipped with coffee/tea, iron, hair drier etc. Dining was not inexpensive but good qualty and plentiful. The location is very central and a very short walk to restaurants and Arundel Castle.

Beautiful old hotel in the heart of arundel. We loved the quirkiness of the rooms, the fact that you was right in the high street with all restaurants shops sights within walking distance. Such a great town to explore. Would highly recommend this hotel and the town.

Anniversary Stay

We enjoy coming to Arundel for the China Palace restaurant and this is our preferred hotel. They have been steadily improving and upgrading the hotel without spoiling its charm. Lovely place to stay and recommend it for a visit to Arundel.

This may sound silly but the room we got did not match the picture. I was looking forward to the cute photo room and instead we were in the auxiliary section which was far more utilitarian. The place was clean and tidy and staff helpful for depositing our bags when we arrived early. The roast beef sunday dinner was plentiful and tasty. Not sure about the yorkshire pudding thing, would have preferred a roll.

Old hotel so did not expect a lot of modern amenities. However, rooms were clean and comfortable, nice little bar. Unfortunately, restaurant closed at 5:00. No big deal as there were a lot of small restaurants very close by.
