Average at best, not the worst.
Well, it's one of them ok-ish reviews for the reasonable cost of the stay, here are the main points to be aware of/be happy about: Free parking, always good and in walking distance to town via the waters edge, a nice stroll. A nice pub opposite for a drink and a full menu if required, quite pricey but nice. The building and it's decor is tired at best. The cleanliness is below average, the shower area isn't great shall we say! The shower water was powerful and hot and the radiators did a good job on a cold day/night. The bed was clean sheeted and comfortable. Whichever staff member came into the building at 6am-ish and announced at the top of his voice 'Morning' to another staff member, clearly doesn't care about waking up the patrons on that same floor, very inconsiderate! In my mind that was the person in the kitchen who was funny about the breakfast! (See below, I could be mistaken). The breakfast is fine but they are tight on what you can have, for example, if you pass on the bacon and ask for both scrambled AND a fried egg, forget it! Seems to me that if you're at least a couple, say yes to everything you need in total and swap between yourselves, save the awkwardness! The young waiter and lady were nice and friendly at breakfast though. So, it's one of them, you kinda get what you pay for but would prefer you paid a bit more! Hope this honest review helps you consider if a stay here is for you or maybe not.

The hotel is a little dated the staff were friendly and helpful. When I came to check out reception was closed and is every morning, so getting a receipt even after messaging was impossible. Good parking. Not sure I would stay again.

We got there a little before 3 PM. There was NO reception. The whole thing was closed. We were lucky the nice maids helped us get our luggage in and let us use the restrooms. Management is TERRIBLE. Maids who also do the breakfast service were VERY helpful through all our stay. Breakfast was ok. Heating was terrible. It was 15 degrees outside and we barely got heating. Wifi was sketchy. We had to change rooms. We ended up in a room with just a tub. No shower.

Room a bit dated, however all clean and comfortable . This is a sister hotel to the Arundel 10 mins walk up the road. The reception has limited opening times but this wasn’t a problem as the staff at the Arundel were very accommodating especially as I was early for check in. All in all good.

Pretty poor experience.
The only thing that saved it from 1 star was friendly team of housekeepers who did what they could and a good breakfast. The hotel is owned and managed by Arundel house down the road and is due to be redeveloped and it shows . Highlights include being put in the top floor and being refused a move when we had a baby despite there being ground floor rooms available, a TV that didn't get signal for the majority of the channels, the overhead shower didn't work because of low water pressure, a management team that is only on premise 1pm-9pm in theory but they closed the reception early when I went to use them, a refusal for change the mugs in our room for clean ones during a 3 night stay. And pre check-in the reception team don't respond to messages in that hotel.com app (except from an attempt to charge 18gbp a day for parking when it's listed as free)
