all very good quality social areas. Very open and plenty of options for seating. Room was lovely and spacious. Very comfortable and nicely decorated.
Good base for access to Chichester and Portsmouth.
We stayed at the Ropemaker for five nights and thoroughly enjoyed the hotel and its restaurant. We had a lovely king-size bed that was very comfortable. The room had a portable air conditioning unit that kept it very cool, which we appreciated. However, it is noisy at night. The outdoor bar area is super cute and has little cabanas that seat about 4 guests. We'll definitely stay here again.
A great place to stay for adults, children and dogs!

Not happy.
Boiling hot room, needs air con! Had to relax in room with door to corridor propped open. Room 33 above kitchen with bottles being emptied into recycling. Noisy! Hence free ear plugs in room?! Not exactly a ‘really comfy’ room! I’m guessing a room saved for people paying with a voucher. Even so, this room was £170 a night! Not happy at all.
As we made a last minute change to accommodate our dog we had a rather small room for two plus , but as only one night it was fine. The other family member with us had a lovely room so no complaints really
Second visit and the hotel coverall was very good. However, the weather was very warm and so was the room with no air conditioning. Unfortunately the windows could only be partly opened due to security cables. Only a duvet was provided but far too warm for use. A sheet would have been good but not provided. A fan was provided but not that useful. So overall sleep difficult.
Great room, great food. Busy road location but ok.. great staff! Nobody at checkout to complain about the loud TV noise I had to endure all night as not obvious where it was coming from! So I didn’t sleep great.
This place is a serious find, loved it from start to finish. Beautiful bar, restaurant and rooms, everything was perfect, I was massively impressed.
And to the person who checked us in (feel bad I didn’t get their name) and also served us in the restaurant was literally like Mary Poppins, big thank you.
We will most certainly return.
We went for the really fancy room as we were staying with our dog so wanted a bit more space, they provided a little dog package which was lovely but a bit expected due to the £20 charge which seemed a bit high. Unfortunately though this room was right by the door to the floor and so it took our dog quite a while to get used to the constant banging of this door of people in an out. The room itself was spacious and nicely styled but again unfortunately the room was at the front close to the road which was also a little noisy. All in all a nice stay for a quick stopover but not sure I’d stay longer than a night.
