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.

Nice place and location but no internet or cell service (O2). Problem caused by burned out routers from a lightning strike one month before. Other business repaired their routers and we had to go there to get service.

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.

Norfolk Arms Hotel, Arundel, West Sussex Stay: August Bank Holiday, 2025 Rating: 4.5/5 Stars I stayed at the Norfolk Arms Hotel in Arundel as a solo traveler over the August Bank Holiday, 2025, to visit friends and enjoy the vibrant Arundel Festival. The hotel’s communication before my arrival was excellent—both Expedia and the hotel responded promptly to my parking inquiries with clear details, which made planning a breeze. Check-in was a highlight; I arrived early, but the friendly receptionist stored my bags and encouraged me to explore the festival, letting me know I could return after 3pm. The warm welcome set a great tone. My room had a cozy small double bed that was very comfortable, with thoughtful touches like tea/coffee facilities, a hairdryer, and delicious biscuits. The bathroom suite, though older, was recently refreshed and spotlessly clean. I loved the natural hand wash, shower gel, shampoo, and body cream provided—such a nice touch! I opted for breakfast across the road at the Motte & Bailey, which was fantastic, so I can’t comment on the hotel’s dining. The Norfolk Arms’ central location was perfect for festival events and visiting friends. Overall, the Norfolk Arms offered a welcoming and comfortable stay, ideal for solo travelers or festival-goers. The attentive service and little extras made it memorable. I’d happily return and recommend it to anyone visiting Arundel!

Great stay

Great location and parking available. Helpful and friendly staff. Old hotel but well maintained and has lots of character. Lovely cosy room with a view of the castle. Limited selection of drinks at the bar but the lounge was comfortable with a relaxing atmosphere. Would stay again!

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.
