The White Swan - 4-Star Hotel in Arundel

The White Swan offers flexible event spaces for both small intimate gatherings and larger group celebrations. Dedicated wedding planning services provide personalized attention for ceremonies and receptions. The property includes a terrace with a gazebo for al fresco dining, plus meeting and banquet facilities and free parking for all guests.

All ensuite bedrooms are located to the rear of the property, with many offering views over adjacent fields and horses. Rooms include standard twin and double configurations with super king-size beds, quality bed linen, and large towels. Each room provides tea and coffee facilities with proper-size mugs, bottled water, and extra pillows in the wardrobe.

The restaurant sources a lot of the menu locally, using seasonal produce for dishes like the Sunday carvery and specials board items such as Thai chicken and beef bourguignon. Breakfast is cooked to order with options including full English and American-style, plus continental choices with fresh pastries. The bar serves a range of local craft and cask beers, and guests can dine on the terrace in the outdoor seating area.

The White Swan is situated on the A27 just outside Arundel, within the South Downs National Park and close to Chichester Harbour. A pleasant 15-20 minute walk through woods and fields leads directly to Arundel town centre, its historic castle, and the River Arun. The hotel is also a short drive from Goodwood, Bognor Regis, Littlehampton, and Brighton seafront.

The hotel accommodates families with children, offering a kids' menu and high chairs in the restaurant. Dogs are welcome for a nominal fee, with staff treating pets as part of the family. The property has ample parking and a garden at the front and back where children and dogs can play.
