About the Hotel
Notice: Children 3+ must be entered as adults as they incur an additional charge.
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.

Reviews for Amberley Castle
Absolutely worth the splurge
The castle is really interesting. I wish we had been able to stay two nights to have had time to explore the grounds. It was so quiet even with a wedding event happening. We stayed in a wonderful room actually IN the walls of the castle; we overlooked the moat on one side and the inner area of the walls on the other. The original residence sits inside the walls with has the reception, dining, and lounge areas. There is a lovely garden to relax outside. Buildings were built to retain heat, and it is not air conditioned, so nights were quite warm for sleeping, but there was a fan to help out. It's just a fact everywhere, so we understood. Breakfast was absolutely magnificent even though it was the same food we had everywhere. Here though, everything was elevated and had such an exquisite flavor. We wished we had eaten the dinner the night before but we just didn't think we were hungry enough for 5 courses. I bet it would have been fabulous. We drove the short distance into Amberley village twice which was so lovely. We went in for cream tea then went back later for dinner. It is walkable from the castle but the weather was windy and rainy. There is a parking lot at the start of the village, so park there and walk around.

Afternoon tea
Having had a lovely afternoon tea today. It was extremely disappointing that the staff found it difficult to smile. It was as though we were at a wake

Wonderful experience
Wonderful experience above expectations. The welcome smile from Holly and team, through to the silver service from Florrin, Gio and team made my wifes birthday overnight celebration so special. The room, grounds and taster menu are exceptional and the walk into the village via the secret church door fabulous. ive never seen so many thatched cottages in one street. The village pub The Black Horse offered a great opportunity for a drink before the hotel 5 course dinner where each course was beautifully created and served. We were so well looked after we can't wait to return. Thank you SO much!
