Excellent

The staff were nice. The room was nice however I would say the food is good but overpriced and the bar prices are extremely expensive for a rural bed-and-breakfast, almost 8 pounds for a pint of lager seems excessive.
£14 for a full English breakfast with one egg, one rasher of bacon, and one sausage
But overall, a nice location and a nice little hotel
Very enjoyable stay. Walks on the Downs and the old quaint town sheds ambiance. Breakfast was spectacular and the staff was very good. I would highly recommend this place.

Staff very good especially Alex who sorted my problem with hotels .com
We have stayed here a couple of times in the past. They have just finished a refurb and were also filming an episode of "The Hotel Inspector" so there were some restrictions but as ever the staff were great and the welcome was warm. The food was as good as on previous visits. However it was a little noisy at times and a few distractions for the staff. We will visit again, I'm sure
The beer garden was really nice a lovely place to eat or drink, inside was clean and tidy with well trained staff, all this contributed to a really good 2 night stay.
Highly recommend staying at The Castle Inn... rooms are modern & spotless... good choice of food (Restaurant or Bar)... staff very friendly & welcoming... will definitely be staying again

Small and cosy place
I have stayed here before and it is located in a small English village on the country side.
Hiking paths close by and the real feel of a true English village.
The hotel is small, but the staff very friendly and welcoming.
Rooms are mostly in an annex.
Small rooms, but adequate space. Quiet and relaxing atmosphere.
The restaurant is great and the full English breakfast gives a good start of the day.
There is parking space on the back of the hotel if you come by car.
The Castle Inn was very clean. Ample free parking. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was freshly cooked and lovely, with plenty of choice. Room was large, with a huge bed, separate bath and shower
Enjoyable stay for a couple of nights. Great food, both dinner and breakfast. Friendly, helpful staff. There isn't a single right angle or level floor in the inn but that just adds to its charm. Hot water takes an age to come through in the bathroom but there is sign to that effect. Would stay again.
We stayed in one of the cottage rooms at the back of the property and found it clean, modern, airy and comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were pleasant. A good stop while walking the South Downs Way.

Nice hotel at a reasonable price in a lovely village overlooked by the remains of a castle. Friendly staff, decent pub grub for dinner at slightly over-inflated prices and an OK breakfast (improve the bacon please). Rooms are reasonable for the price.
The place was as advertised. In a quaint village. We had dinner and breakfast, both meals were great. The bar and meal areas are inviting. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable.
Very Nice Inn Hotel in a lovely location. The Room a little small but clean and comfortable. Food in the restaurant was of a high standard. The breakfast was freshly cook good quality. Staff friendly and helpful
