Guest Reviews

• Hans (8/5): - Ontbijt werd wat laat geserveerd en was alleen engels. Iets eerder het ontbijt serveren
• Sue (10/5): - It was very easy to arrange and the property matched the details on your site
• Tanya (8/5): A last minute find and it was a good place to stay. Location, staff and breakfast lovely. - The staff were exceptional, room size good, location was fab and the breakfast was lovely. Really enjoyed our stay at Selsey. I thought that the £25 charge for a dog was a bit steep especially as we didn't get anything for it as when we have stayed at places before for same additional charge we received a bowl, treats etc.

• Ian (10/5): A Fabulous Place to Stay to Explore the Local Area. I Loved it Here. - I loved everything about my short stay at The Selsey Arms. It is a lovely place. the Staff are Wonderful and the Breakfast and Evening Meals were Superb.
• Gary (7/5): A - Staff were very friendly and the breakfast was the. The WiFi did not work in the room (out of signal range). and the television was not working either.
• Daniel (4/5): Great location, but whole place needs attention, certainly not worth £130 per night - Good location, friendly, accommodating and helpful staff Quite grubby and very tired looking throughout establishment. In the pub light bulbs missing, all clocks were stopped or broken, table lamps on every table either not working or not charged and tables were sticky. Breakfast was disappointing
• Rob (10/5): A nice night away - Everything , staff were brilliant, food was amazing and the room was nice and comfy Nothing
• Jonathan (8/5): Great stay. - Lovely country pub and good accommodation
• PLL339 (9/5): -
• Alex (8/5): -
• jacqueline (9/5): Good friendly location ideal for access to Goodwood - Friendly welcome, my room was on the second floor, very cozy, excellent shower and lots of choices of drinks that I could make in the room. Very peaceful area, woke up to the sound of birds. I had a very tasty full English Breakfast with great coffee. Good location for Goodwood and easy to get an Uber Nothing
• Jo (8/5): Short stay but ver comfortable and staff very helpful. Brisket dinner was superb and highly recommended. - Great location for cycling / walking in the South Downs. Nothing really
• Tracy (8/5): - Friendly, helpful staff. Spacious accommodation. Food was very good
• Gillian (9/5): Overall a great stay with great people and a short taxi ride to our evening venue - The breakfast was good and catered for gluten free diet, all staff were very helpful , personable and accommodating. The fish and chip dinner was great and gluten free too! Good parking and a nice sunny space to sit outside . Overall great. Thank you. More milk in room we only had one sachet ,TV we couldnt get to work at all no matter how we tried to get a channel.The bathroom was a little tired.
• Matthew (9/5): -
• Jackie (9/5): - Quality & choice of food, lovely room & comfortable bed, excellent value for money especially as breakfast was included, countryside location & all managed exceptionally well by Jacob & his team who were very friendly & welcoming- nothing too much trouble. Great find!
• Samantha (10/5): Great stay - We stayed 2 nights here and ate in the restaurant both evenings. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast each morning was delicious, as were the evening meals, although these were a little too generous in size for our appetites. Good selection of gluten free dishes, chips cooked in dedicated gluten free fryer, great gluten free fish and chips! Jacob was an excellent and accommodating host.
• Needham (5/5): - Breakfast was very good Expensive for a very basic room
• Katrina (10/5): Pleasant - Breakfast superb,staff very helpful and friendly The price was a lot for one night
• Karen (4/5): Beautiful area, but will not be returning to this establishment - Loved the location. Very comfy bed. Liked own door to outside. Great to have a bath. Cleanliness was poor, almost asked for products to do it myself. Breakfast was disappointing, would have liked to be able to have hot drink and juice but only offered one or the other. No fruit offering, no yoghurts and only offered cereal or hot menu, not both. Staff where polite but seemed very inexperienced and somewhat clueless.... took 3 attempts at getting the correct key to the room we booked, and they only had 5.
• ANTHONY (8/5): Very comfortable and excellent food as expected - Food was excellent Complicated television operation
• David (8/5): A peaceful location within easy reach of many interesting places to visit. - Clean large room with good facilities. Very good and varied choice for breakfast.
• Aude (6/5): -
• Sophie (10/5): - Absolute perfect combination of wonderful staff, gorgeous food, luxury room set in a beautiful countryside... Which was visible when I had breakfast. I'd love to stay here again ❤️ Absolutely nothing.
• Anu (10/5): Great location, super food, best hospitality and comfortable rooms - Clean and well presented. It was a basic room with no frills but everything one wanted or might need was there. Tea/coffee facility, fan, heater, hair dryer, tv, etc. the bathrooms were nice. Overall a comfortable room, was great. The rural location added to the tranquil surroundings and we didn’t miss having the padded head boards or plush interiors. Nothing really wrong with the facilities.
• Emma (10/5): Amazing - The welcome and accommodation were fantastic. The breakfast was absolutely amazing! We will definitely be coming back again.
• Jobst (7/5): - Die Lage zu meinem Zielort war genial. Sehr steile Treppe zum Zimmer. Mit Tasche machbar, mit schwerem Koffer nicht. Alles sehr einfach, aber gut. Mit 200£ sehr teuer.
• Suzy (6/5): Was perfect for our trip - Perfect location and amazing breakfast Our room was boiling on arrival and difficult to cool down without propping the door open

• Liz (8/5): A Friendly, comfortable pub with great food. - Friendly and comfortable. Our room was a good size. There was a very quiet fan which was useful as the room was very warm. The shower was powerful with loads of hot water. There was a great choice at breakfast and, like dinner which we had there both evening during our stay, the food was freshly cooked and hot. It was a great place to stay for visiting the Weald and Downland Living Museum and West Dean Gardens.
• Sue (9/5): -
• Neil (8/5): Lovely quiet pub. - We chose the Selsey Inn for it’s location adjacent the Centurion Way and because breakfast was included. The staff were very welcoming and the room was comfy. The food was excellent and the portions were generous. The pub itself was quiet, we were there Thursday and Friday. The only downside was the floor of the room above Room 3 was very creaky.
• Stewart (8/5): Friendly and well located pub - Pleasant two night stay at a comfortable and friendly pub. We only ate breakfast at the property but this was excellent and with friendly service. Very convenient for Chichester - 10 minute drive to the large car park by the Festival Theatre. Traffic noise from the road was not noticeable as the rooms are set back from the main road behind the main building. The pub is opposite the Centurion Way - a footpath along the old railway line between Chichester and Midhurst.
• George (8/5): -
• Gillian (9/5): Great bus stop outside the beer tables access to Chichester and Midhurst. Really felt like being on holiday. Superb lo - Relaxed. Great food. Friendly. Nothing

• Stefan (9/5): Perfect pitstop on our FOS trip. - Breakfast was great! The location is perfect if you are visiting an event in Goodwood! Staff very friendly! Room and furnishing in great order - seem recently refurbished or kept-up exceptionally well. An AC woudl have been good, but realise the weather is rearly so hot as it was during our stay, so maybe not justified ovwerall. Atleast the room had cross-ventilation so not as bad as the next night on the same trip in a different hotel.

• James (10/5): Friendly and warm lodging - Friendly staff, comfortable beds, and great food await you here. Ruby the dog too. My only complaint is minor. I wish the WiFi worked in the room. It only works in the pub. That of course forced me to enjoy a nice cider while in the pub.

Comfy bed, nice fluffy towels and the room had everything you could need. Plenty of parking and nice garden. The staff were welcoming, including Ruby the dog, and the breakfast was amazing! And very nice to have my gluten intolerance accommodated for at breakfast too. My only slight negative is the price but it was perfect location and only a 20 min walk to the venue (3 min drive).

Than - The beautiful characteristics within the whole building were stunning.
