Our visit started off with a bit of a bumpy start with a room that was cramped, non functioning toilet and lacked a shower. The other challenge could be the lack of lifts to various floors leading to issues with baggage. However, the staff quickly assisted us with better accommodations for our 2 week stay. We enjoyed both breakfast and evening dining options at Arundel as well as nearby restaurants along Bridge street. We walked everywhere but taxi service was promptly arranged when requested. Internet access was consistent around the property and freely available. Coming from a Caribbean island based on tourism we appreciated the friendliness, courtesy and readiness of staff to assist when approached.

We loved our stay here. Very reasonable but still a lovely hotel and the staff were all very friendly and efficient. An easy walk into the city, just over the bridge and through the park. I would highly recommend here to anyone.

Hotel is extremely run down and it feels dirty and grotty. The whole place needs doing up. The staff although friendly could barely speak English and some were not helpful. Our room was in the gods and we could not get hot water. We did eat in the restaurant and the steak we had was beautiful.

Hotel handily placed for amenities - park, river, access to city centre, pubs shops etc. continental breakfast had good and varied selection. Food and beverages were fresh. Staff were friendly and helpful. Third floor corridor has a step down which is almost invisible when carrying luggage due to patterned carpet. A sign or visible strip would be a good safety feature.

Arundel House is located right on the River and across from beautiful Jesus Green. Everything is within easy walk-able distance, but you're just outside the crowded center. The hotel is a little down at the heels but has a lot of old fashion charm. The only real draw back was that both wifi and (for us) cellular were poor in our room. Still, we would stay again, the location was great.

The bed is a small double, TV is small and not to see where it was placed. Only one plug to use so could not use for multiple items. The room had no air conditioning. Request for a took about 30 minutes to resolve after 2 phone calls. Had to pay an additional £18 for parking for not booking directly with the hotel and an extra £25 for 2 cooked breakfast. Not a satisfactory stay and not a value for money stay either.

Desperate for new mattresses

Arundel House has many things to recommend it - location along the canal and park, secure parking, onsite restaurant. The staff was professional and efficient. Unfortunately, they also had possibly the worst sleeping comfort I've ever encountered at a hotel. Wafer thin pillows and mattresses that were so worn out they simply collapsed into an asymmetrical crater beneath you. In fairness, given the overall rating, I suspect we simply got a room very much in need of updating. But it will.prevent me from staying there again. Other aspects of the hotel were very nice, but it's also good to be aware there is quite a lot of late night street noise at weekends from students in the park.

Although the hotel is a nice location, walking distance to most things and yet still quiet on the evening, there were many elements that was not so go The room was recording 29 degrees when we entered it and there was no Air Con or fan, and the windows had been kept closed - it took several hours for it to cool The bar closed at 10, so there was no ability to have a drink in the evening when returning The car park is £18 for the night if you dont book direct, but this expires at 11:30 the following morning and then its £2.50 per hour I just felt that they could have done more and be more accomodating

Great location, opposite Jesus Green though on a busy road which meant road noise. We booked a large twin. I’m not convinced we got this as our room did not look like the pictures and was more of a small twin, even though I checked with reception. Hmmm! Very clean and nice fluffy towels. Hot day and we were on the top floor - it was almost unbearably hot.
