Staff friendly & very helpful. Plenty of parking.Spacious room Comfortable bed. The housekeeping let everyone down. Dirty tea stained teaspoons. Dubious spots on the duvet cover, and footend runner which had never been ironed. It rained that night and the rain- gutter outside the window of room 4 is obviously bocked so the resulting noise of overflow made for a disturbed nights sleep
Unironed bed runner.

Comfortable stay

Great location for Arundel. Wide choice of options for breakfast. All cooked food was excellent. Staff, particularly reception, were friendly and helpful. Only downside to our stay and the hotel was the abysmal WiFi. It was continually dropping out. We did query this with the hotel but no solution was found.

My friend and I were looking for a base to explore the historic towns, houses and gardens of this area, and struck lucky with this hotel. We were impressed by the pleasantly relaxed atmosphere, the quality of the food, the variety of dining and bar areas and the comfortable, well-maintained and quiet rooms (no audible traffic noise). Staff were friendly and helpful. Recommended.

Very friendly, helpful and efficient staff. A great location for visiting Arundel with the advantage of an off-road walk into the town via a bridleway at the back of the inn. The room was clean and tidy but a little tired. Overall good value for money and would definitely come back again.

The Staff made our stay

I have driven past this Pub/Hotel many many times, and always womdered what it was like. It always looks busy and is an attractive looking place. So, rather than drive past I decided we should book a room, have diner and stay over. Many reviews often comment on the staff, well I'm going to join those reviewers! The staff at The White Swan were amazing, thank you. Had a great chat with the Bar Manager, the waiter at diner was very helpful and responsive.At Breakfast the lady that served us was very pleasant and finally the receptionist was mega helpful. She had noticed that there was an issue with payment and resolved it straight away. Also after we left the house keeper found one of our belongings left in the room, reported it to reception and we got a phone call before we were to far away. So, the team at The White Swan were excellent, we can'y thank you enough. Oh, and the pub is mega dog friend.
