An Absolute Gem!
Conveniently placed for exploring the city on foot with free parking. We were in room 4 which had a south facing verandah which was lovely as we had good weather. The full english breakfast was excellent - done exactly as it should be. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

Very friendly Inn tucked away down West Street. Very convenient for accessing the city with a good breakfast on offer. What would have made my stay even better if I had a blind and curtain that works for a bit of privacy.

Lovely gem!
My friend and I had a lovely stay here. Just a stones throw away from Chichester Cathedral where we were attending a Xmas concert. The staff were attentive, the room was comfortable and the bedding was gorgeous. Breakfast was absolutely delicious. Thank you for a lovely stay in this old building. We had a lovely time ❤️

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Our room had a little balcony that overlooked the pretty garden. Breakfast was excellent. We were very close to the cathedral and the location was perfect. It was within walking distance of the shops, pubs and restaurants. A lovely stay.

Great stay at the Chichester Inn
Great stay in Chichester it was only for one night. Hotel is close to Chichester town centre, added benefit with parking. Lovely room with Balcony bright and clean. Only one flight of stairs which was great. Very welcoming and a great breakfast to leave on would definitely recommend.

We stayed for one night as a visit to the area and were met by a building covered in scaffolding, we checked in and we're taken to our room via the back of the bar up a dirty rickety staircase.The room,bed and bathroom were all small and needed a refurb,and was dirty , with several ants walking around the shower tray . The shower itself had no pressure even though there was a switch for the power .Outside our 'balcony' was one chair and rickety old table with several dying plants. Breakfast was served in the bar area ,the cooked part was warm .Staff were friendly but it was not a pleasant stay.The Chichester Inn's only redeeming features are it's location and staff . We definitely won't be returning.

A lovely pub to stay in whilst in Chichester
A lovely place to stay, just a few minutes walk from town centre. Easy to find and with free car park just behind the pub. Pub has nice bar areas and garden. Friendly staff, lovely freshly cooked breakfast and comfy beds.

Good overnight stay
Excellent location and very useful to have a car park there. Staff were very helpful and breakfast lovely. The room was comfortable except for the very loud noise of the pub below. The only door between us and the noise was the one bedroom door. It did stop when the pub closed, but was not a relaxing experience until then.

Really enjoyed staying at the Chichester Inn. Great location, very friendly staff and excellent service - especially breakfast served in the lovely garden.
Room was OK - it had a brilliant sunny terrace which was great, room itself a bit basic but that's part of the inn character.

A delightful stopover in Chichester
Was welcomed by Anucshka, who was extremely amicable and pleasant in informing us about the facilities on offer at the hotel. Showed us to our room which was clean and tidy to an exceptionally high standard.While providing details of what was on offer around Chichester. Decided to have dinner at the venue and was not disappointed by the special that was on offer "liver & bacon" prepared by chef Alan, which was excellent! After a couple of real ales from a local brewery retired for the evening.
Beds were extremely comfortable and after a good nights sleep went for the full english breakfast option which again did not dissappoint!
Id like to thank Nick and his staff for making a night in Chichester a lovely stop over! Congratulations and keep up the good work and great service, i hope to return in the not too distant furture.
