In the heart of Arundel's conservation area is the Norfolk Arms Hotel, a former Georgian coaching inn, completed in 1780. Unspoilt, the hotel combines the period features of the Georgian era with the requirements of today's visitors.

Within the hotel are log fires, bars serving real ales and for entertaining on a greater scale, the magnificent mirrored ballroom. Most of our rooms, which vary in size and character, are situated in the main house, whilst ground floor rooms are available in our courtyard.

The car park is to rear of the hotel and offers both open and covered parking.

The Norfolk Arms hotel has a wealth of history and heritage. It's a charming Georgian Coaching Inn, built over 200 years ago by the 10th Duke of Norfolk. It soon became the local meeting place and a popular resting spot for weary travellers. To this day the Arundel Society for the Prosecution of Thieves and Felons still hold their annual Dinner at this Arundel Hotel - a tradition which dates back to the 18th century.

The Norfolk Arms hotel is set under the battlements of Arundel Castle and has an atmosphere of traditional permanence, the kind that prevails in all the gracious buildings that make up Britain's colourful heritage.

The Arun Restaurant offers an extensive a la carte menu together with an excellent and imaginative wine list. Alternatively the two very pleasant bars serve local ales and a mouth-watering selection of light meals and snacks. Spend a relaxing afternoon in the comfortable lounge with a Forestdale cream tea or perhaps a drink from the bar.

The facilities available in each bedroom include:

* Free WiFi
* Flat screen TV
* Direct dial telephone
* Hairdryer
* Tea and coffee making facilities

The hotel has 34 individually decorated en-suite bedrooms including standard and feature rooms, both in the main hotel and in the Courtyard.
