A pleasant stay
Pros:

Very nice features. The food was very good and the service was good also. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bedroom was a good size and comfortable.

Cons:

We were told that if we arrived early we would be able to get a snack in the bar. What they didn’t mention was that we would have to wait 30 to 45 minutes because they were busy. I also didn’t like that guests had to pass through the restaurant with their bags and cases to get to the car park.

Lovely return stay at The Spread Eagle Hotel and Spa - this time with my children and our dog too, all beautifully looked after by the staff team. A lovely staycation with great guest experiences, delicious food and great spa area too.

Great Spa. Food? not so much.
Pros:

My partner & her pal went last week with a voucher I bought her. They had a super time in the Spa + treatments & the staff were excellent as always.
Not for the first time tho, the restaurant let them down. The food was bland, undercooked & overpriced. She'd said before that the portions were small so I got an extra £25 voucher for her to top up with extras.
How do you mess up a vegetarian dish ? Two florets of cauliflower with some pomegranate seeds on top in a "sauce" was the only non-meat option. So they ordered 2 portions of tasteless / weird-textured chips to go-with (£13) & some bread (£6.50) only 6 others in the restaurant on a Friday Lunchtime. not hugely surprising. I did e-mail them last Friday to give them a right to respond first, but only got a reply advising that my e-mail had been forwarded to Management.
Partner does want to come again for the excellent spa &pool but they'll be eating elsewhere next time.

Spa and therapist utterly fabulous - Restaurant staff very unwelcoming
Pros:

The spa staff and whole experience was fabulous, loved it. Sadly ruined by the very unwelcoming restaurant staff who behaved like we were a nuance in deciding to have afternoon tea or asking for a menu to have a glass of fizz as we were a little early for 3pm tea.

Would have 5 star if not for the restaurant staff.

A wonderfully quirky hotel with a long history
Pros:

The hotel is wonderfully quirky with a long history, situated just on the edge of the medieval and Georgian town of Midhurst. The hotel has been renovated to a high standard without sacrificing the essential character of its medieval and Jacobean heritage. The dining experience is superb with no ghastly Muzak, just the hum of conversation over widely spaced tables. Good food and wine complement the friendly and welcoming service.
It’s a rare find and one to be enjoyed at leisure.

Beautiful, relaxing, super comfortable hotel
Pros:

This is a really lovely hotel. We booked five night stay which was great value and fantastic relaxing break. The rooms are charming- we had the courtyard suite which was a generous sized room with window seats overlooking the front of the hotel and and space for comfortable armchairs - great for watching TV; A lovely big bathroom with seperate bath and shower. Super comfortable beds.
The Hotel itself has lots of space to relax in , bars and lounges and a garden area ,conservatory and terrace . Very dog friendly ( only the restaurant was dog free ) . Breakfast cooked to order and homemade Bircher, pastries and stewed fruits. Midhurst is a great place to visit -lots of
lovely walks around the area including the Cowdray estate.
A special mention to the staff who were so helpful and really made our trip such a relaxing break .
This is probably our new favourite Sussex Hotel

Pros:

De openbare ruimtes en de spa.

Cons:

De kamer, 'nieuwe' kamer best klein en snikheet! Geen airconditioning, klein raampje open en een ventilator. Niet om over naar huis te schrijven.
