The Norfolk Arms is a charming Georgian Coaching Inn built over 200 years ago by the 10th Duke of Norfolk. It soon became the local meeting place and a popular resting spot for weary travellers and to this day the Arundel Society for the Prosecution of Thieves and Felons hold their annual dinner at the Hotel - a tradition which dates back to the 18th century. The hotel is set under the battlements of Arundel Castle and has an atmosphere of traditional permanence - the kind that prevails in all the gracious buildings that make up the colourful heritage of Britain. The Norfolk Arms Hotel combines traditional elegance with modern comforts and offers 34 comfortable ensuite bedrooms - 2 bars - a restaurant and a magnificent mirrored ballroom for private parties and corporate events. Also available is WiFi access in the bedrooms - conference rooms and public areas. Arundel is the ideal base from which to explore the beautiful countryside and places of interest in West Sussex. Along with three designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty - Chichester Harbour - the Sussex Downs and the High Weald - this area offers many acres of Gardens open to the public with unique collections of rare trees and flowering shrubs. Historic buildings include Arundel Castle - Chichester Cathedral - Goodwood House - Parham House and the Roman Villa at Bignor. National Trust properties in the area include the Petworth House and Park - famous for its beautiful deer park and fine collection of paintings - many by Turner and Van Dyck. The area also boasts museums to suit all the family - vineyards - windmills and watermills - steam railways - amusement parks and arts and craft centres. From 1st July all Forestdale Hotels - including the bedrooms - will become completely no smoking when the Smokefree England legislation comes into force. We believe that providing a smoke-free environment will enhance the well-being and comfort of our guests and employees.
