Hotel The Vestry
Southgate, Chichester, PO19 1ES, United Kingdom – Great location - show map
Breakfast had a nice selection of cooked meals and cereals. Location was not optimal but perfectly functional.
United KingdomThis is a historical building that has been made really comfortable for modern travel. It is within a few minutes walk from the railway station and only five minutes or so walk from the Cathedral and the central Market Cross. The room (No. 9 - John Arundel) was spacious, with character, and the breakfast was really excellent. Chichester itself is a lovely historical city to visit and The Vestry is where we would stay again. For those keen on books, Kim's bookshop just along the road is a wonderland.
United States of AmericaAll very satisfactory. Pleasant staff very accommodating breakfast very good too. Very central one draw back no lift.
United KingdomExcellent add-ons in the room, loads of tea, coffee, milk, bottle of water, biscuits, little chocolates, better than some higher starred hotels with excellent space in the room Breakfast was great and for a small place, a wide choice. Happy Hour between 4 and 8 was good and all the staff we encountered were extremely helpful.
MaltaReception and Bar staff very good. food good quality but see notes below
United KingdomThe room was huge, which was a nice surprise. We had been traveling around England, and most of the rooms were tiny with challenging bathrooms. This place had a beautiful and spacious room and a large bathroom. Breakfast was great, too. The attached restaurant is smokey, and as we went up to our room we were worried that the smoke would permeate all through the building, but our room was very far away from the restaurant, and we weren't bothered at all by smoke or noise. Chocolates on the pillow were a nice touch.
United States of AmericaStaff are good. The location is great and provides a good breakfast. The rooms are functional and it's a nightclub. I didn't mind that.
United KingdomThe location, cleanliness, breakfast and staff where excellent especially Bryony
United KingdomThe breakfast here is superb, only downside is that because of Covid it was from 9am, which was ok for us as just having a few days away, but you may have to ask before booking if it's possible before if you are travelling for work! The room was lovely with great big bathroom with bath and shower!! Didn't hear much from pub from where we were! This is in great location as very close to both bus station and train station for days out or work!! Right in among shops and short walk from Cathedral!
United KingdomBreakfast was pretty decent,and location was quite central.
