Hotel is a Grade II listed Victorian property dating back to 1759, that has been recently refurbished. It combines traditional comforts with the facilities of a modern hotel, with a warm welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff, good freshly prepared home cooked food, fine Fullers real ales and a good selection of wines. The Swan has become the meeting place in the town for locals and visitors alike.
of Pebble Hotels, The White Swan has strived to create a contemporary edge to this traditional property with a blend of oak beams, open fires, bold fabrics and striking artwork.The beautiful bar and restaurant with its mix of rich and tranquil colours is a delightful space to enjoy our new menus and specials over a chilled glass of wine. We have created a new relaxing lounge area where diners and residential guests alike can unwind after a long day.We are delighted with our new look bedrooms! The light colour scheme in the rooms picks out the little extra touches such as the bright scatter cushions on the plush bed and the vibrate curtains that frame the landscape views. The bedrooms have clean lines with a modern feel, and all personal amenities, 24 hour room service, internet connection and tea and coffee making facilities. Be it for business or pleasure all in all they give our guests a beautiful space to unwind.And there?s more...The White Swan has three function rooms. The largest, the Sussex Suite, provides not only a great meeting room for business users but also an ideal space for dinner dances and weddings.We are open early in the morning so why not drop in for a chat with friends or a breakfast meeting over a Costa coffee and sticky danish? Business guests can also benefit from the free WiFi access in all of our public areas.The hotel is situated 5 minutes outside of Arundel and is perfectly located for easy travel to Chichester, Fontwell and Goodwood. We very much hope that you will visit us soon to experience all of this for yourself!
Advantages: Historical town with many attractions nestling in the midst of the South Downs. Disadvantages: Over run with tourists in the summer. Half the major attractions shut in winter.

It's a lovely place to have a wander around in at your own pace. A spring and summer visit will guarantee lots to see and do there, though you will pay the price as the town can often be over run with tourists, making car parking a bit of a nightmare.

If chain restaurants are your preference, then you've got the choice of a Pizza Express on the High Street or a Beefeater just over the river and up the hill in the nearby village of Crossbush.
If you prefer something a little spicier there's a very nice Indian restaurant (New Castle Tandoori in Mill Lane, just off the High Street), or you can try the unusual surroundings ...
