The Bent Arms

The room was clean and functional, although a bit tired. The bed is comfortable with clean linen. Staff are friendly and helpful. Food very good with a decent sized portion. Really enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding.! A good selection of beers that are well kept. Looking forward to our next stay.

The Bent Arms was an ideal hotel for a reunion of three university friends. It is not luxury accommodation but does not pretend to be. Its clean and comfortable and the staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is good and the set course evening meal tasty, satisfying and exceptional value. There is plenty going on in Lindfield and the surrounding are for a long weekend.

The staff were very friendly, and the village was lovely- close to 3 National Trust properties, which was our reason for going. The room was roadside. The road was very busy and that made the room noisy. The website states cooked or continental breakfast. There was not a continental breakfast, and even cereal was not readily offered as an alternative.

My stay was good. All things were comfortable. The only thing that could have been better was the shower head kept falling down & wouldn't hold up properly. The room was comfortable, with enough room. The decorations was basic, but for the price the room was fine.

Lovely stay, staff were very friendly and went out of their way to make me a pack lunch because I had to leave early and miss breakfast.

Room bit tired . Breakfast excellent

Excellent staff, rooms are getting tired especially the bathroom which need an update

The staff here are so incredible friendly and helpful. The pub is gorgeous and our room was comfortable. Its on a great location.

The staff were lovely, and the food was fine. But the room was terrible. Tatty and dirty. The loo didn’t flush properly and the bed was really cheap. The corridors on the upper floors were full of old furniture, laundry bags and dirty dishes. As an added bonus, the room had a psychotic television- which turned itself on at 2am, and cycled through all the channels at full volume. (It did this twice!) We left early, and no one asked why- which doesn’t surprise me.

Whilst the pub and staff are lovely the accommodation is pretty dreadful. There is no air con and no fan. The window does not stay up easily and is dirty and rotting. The beds and pillows are too soft meaning on hot nights it is so uncomfortable. The bed is also too short (I am 6 foot) meaning you cannot stretch out easily without bashing the iron bed end. The shower curtain had mould growing on the inside (room 9). The corridor to the rooms on arrival was full of half empty pints of drink. Also laundry bags lay around in the corridor. The Wi-Fi does not work in the bedrooms. Overall it’s clear the owners do not think about the customers experience when staying as it shows very little investment in the rooms as they could be straight out of the 1980’s. It’s sad especially as the pub and staff are nice. Invest in the rooms and charge more would be my recommendation.
