Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice overall, but the ventilation system caused some noise and inconvenience, especially with kitchen fumes. Additionally, the bathroom lacked adequate privacy. The service was impressive with attentive staff, although there were some hiccups with dinner reservations. The location, though marred by nearby roadworks, still offered good value and decent amenities. The dining experience was a hit and miss with exceptional food quality but occasional mishaps. Overall, a decent stay with room for improvement.
I had a bit of a mixed experience with this hotel. The rooms, although clean and comfortable, had a view of a flat roof at the back. The staff were fantastic and helpful but had a couple of hiccups with our bookings. The location is good, but the ongoing roadworks outside were a bit of a nuisance. The dining options were overpriced, but the service made up for it. Overall, a decent stay with a few ups and downs.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were very clean and really good, nicely decorated with everything you need, and even a great breakfast to finish our stay. The hotel was ready for check-in at 2 pm, which was convenient. The service was top-notch, from organizing taxis to the reception staff and maintenance team. The housekeeping was impeccable, and the welcome drinks were a nice touch. The location was fantastic, within close proximity to the lovely town of Chichester and easy to reach other nearby areas. The dining experience was also very good, with freshly cooked meals to order. Overall, a relaxing and pleasant stay.
