Loved by Harbour Hotel & Spa Chichester guests
"The bedroom was beautifully furnished with very comfortable beds."
"We'd booked a slot in the spa and had the place to ourselves for half an hour - just a small spa pool and steam room but a nice way to relax for a while."
"The location of this hotel is excellent, right in the heart of Chichester and only a 10 min walk from the Festival Theatre."

“This boutique hotel occupies a Grade II listed building, placing guests within steps of Chichester's cultural core. While some rooms may present space constraints, the overall experience is elevated by attentive service and a notable restaurant, The Ship, emphasizing locally sourced cuisine. I think its subterranean spa, although a surprising feature in such a historic structure, contributes to a well-rounded wellness offering.”

A Satisfactory Stay
excellent locationspacious bathroomice bucketspa facilities
The location was excellent. I was not far from the Cathedral. The hotel is well maintained. The bathroom was spacious and modern, I liked the bath and shower combination.
I was disappointed I asked for an ice bucket twice and did not receive it. I was also disappointed that I was not told about the spa facilities. I had to leave the hotel not long after arriving because there was a wedding on, so I went to the local park.

The hotel has a lift available needing assistance with stairs. The location IS excellent. It is perfect for exploring nearby streets. I appreciated the helpfulness of the bar staff during a late visit to the bar.
The bathroom WAS quite tiny, which proved to be a bit inconvenient. Street noise was noticeable in my room. Closing the window made it stuffy due to the lack of air conditioning. I found the car park situation less than ideal. There were only about ten spaces, and i had to pay extra elsewhere.
