For 900 years, Amberley Castle has enjoyed a quiet existence near the picturesque village of Amberley in Englandâ€(TM)s West Sussex countryside. Today, it remains a prime example of medieval architectureâ€"complete with moatâ€"while serving as a lavish small hotel. This member of the prestigious Relais & Chateaux collection boasts just 19 bedrooms and suites, each individually transformed to complement the architecture. Every day here is a keepsake, ending with the spectacle of the awesome, two-ton oak portcullis being lowered for the night.

We had a warm welcome, help with our luggage and valet parking. Our room was beautiful. Extremely comfortable bed and as requested, it had a large walk in shower. We enjoyed a delicious lunch, dinner and breakfast in a relaxed atmosphere. We like staying in hotels with an interesting history, good food and comfortable beds and Amberley Castle hotel ticked all the boxes!

We only booked on the morning of arrival via phone call, not the most assuring of calls, didn’t get a confirmation email until well after we arrived! The welcome wasn’t great, we were shown to our room, which we were surprisingly upgraded to the four poster room (Chichester room) initially reaction was ‘wow’ but………room was freezing, 2 oil filled radiators were on but not much effect, (one with a missing wheel which we stabilised with 2 books)! there is a gas fire which we feel should have been lit, prior to arrival, Tea coffee etc supplied, only teacups, no mugs and…….no milk of any kind, also no fridge, we called down 2 times for some and eventually arrived almost an hour later! We had also called down regarding the fire which we were told to go ahead and light ourselves, we tried several times but didn’t seem safe, the guy who bought our milk did light it and we are glad he did it as it wasn’t easy! Bathroom was lovely but not in keeping with the room, too modern, the bath tap was broken, bath mat had black marks on it, toilet lights didn’t work and shower was very average, also there were ‘wee’ marks in front of toilet on the floor (not mopped) the two robes were not good quality, one had no loops for belt and holes where they were originally, no hooks by shower or sinks for towels. Meal was ok nothing to get excited by. Staff were good, and we did get some money off the bill due to an unexpected power cut.

We left a Google review about this wonderful castle hotel last night but wanted to add an extra thank you to Bothi who served our spectacular breakfast this morning too. Calm, patient and polite, Bothi was happy to help us with our extra requirements and also told us some interesting stories too. He was diligent and understanding and helped to make our final morning at Amberley as memorable as our wonderful dinner experience last night. Thank you, Bothi. Thank you, Amberley.

We had a wonderful two nights here for our wedding anniversary. When we arrived we had a room up grade which was lovely but sadly there was no bath and I was really wanting a relaxing bath so we switched back to our original room which was no bother . The roommate lovely and clean. No milk kept in the room ask reception. Unfortunately our phone didn’t work so hubby had to keep walking down for the milk! Breakfast was included and very nice, we had the tasting menu meal on our second night and it was lovely but probably wouldn’t choose to do it again it was all a little bland and lacked taste. Looked impressive but not for us. We would however eat here again and definitely return to stay

Incredibly overpriced for the shabby interiors, broken TV, broken fold out bed for the kids, and very disappointing service. At best, the staff were polite but looked miserable and at worst, downright rude for no reason. The food was okay but also not worth it. The area is so beautiful, we’ll be coming back here to see more but never back to this hotel unless they make big changes.
