A gem!
Pros:

The room was gorgeous, shower great, bed so comfy and staff were so helpful and friendly. We were even allowed to leave our bags there when we checked out as it was a nice day and we wanted to go back to Worthing seafront. Nothing negative to say about this place, just annoyed we didn’t opt for their roast on Sunday as when we returned, it smelt amazing! Will definitely head back there again.

Cons:

Nothing - it was all perfect!

Well appointed, clean facilities and friendly staff.
Pros:

The rooms were very clean and tidy, the facilities are well appointed. The family rooms are a good size and the bunk bed are perfect for the kids with the little lights for reading.

Cons:

There is no parking and we had to pay just under £20 in the council car park, would be better if there was a reduced rate for the hotel guests.

Perfect.
Pros:

The room was inviting and well-maintained, with tasteful color decor. The bed was comfortable, and both the sheets and pillows were clean and fresh. The shower also had excellent water pressure.

Cons:

Nothing in particular about the hotel itself. However, if you’re driving, be aware that there is no on-site parking. There is a nearby car park called Teville Gate, but it does not offer 24-hour parking and only allows stays until 8am.

Best food on Worthing with superb staff
Pros:

Back to our favourite restaurant. Food amazing, Molly and Eva superb hosts. Great at recommending dishes, wine and desert. So happy to say our favourite restaurant in worthing. Family and dog and rugby friendly, great food and staff and such a happy place. See you soon guys. Mothering in law from Paris came and my husbands boss from Marseille complimented how great the English food was and my parents are coming for bank holiday 😀

Immaculate, comfortable and quiet.

So quiet in our room on the ground floor even though the pub was really busy.
Lovely decor and nice touches like the movement sensor light in the bathroom for night visits.
Great if you don’t want to bring your car as opposite Worthing railway station.
