What guests think

Across recent reviews, Ardington Hotel stands out for exceptionally friendly, hands-on service and a consistently praised breakfast, alongside a central location near the seafront, while rooms are generally comfortable though some are compact and traditional in style.

Repeated downsides include dated decor, small or tired bathrooms, and lack of a lift; parking is on-street and can be limited or paid. Several guests mentioned warm rooms and occasional street noise, though others found rooms quiet and upgrades or room changes were handled helpfully. Expect a friendly, classic stay in a walkable location.

Cozy hotel with very sympathetic and welcoming staff. It feels very much like home. The rooms are fine and clean. Their restaurant has a menu with good options for lunch and dinner. It does not have a lift, so, if carrying heavy luggage, it might be a little effort. The curtains in the bathroom could be a little thicker to make the shower experience more pleasant. Otherwise, I only have compliments on the quality of the premises, the service and the personnel.

Great hotel in a great location near the sea front. Very helpful and friendly staff. The room was a good size with everything you need. Really nice menu in the restaurant for our evening meal and good quality breakfast. Parking is on the road and free after 6pm but this was full. There is a multi storey just round the corner which cost around £7 overnight which was easier than driving round trying to find a roadside spot.

Our room was comfortable but the bed was a little soft. The breakfast was a plentiful buffet of hot items with alternative egg types on request. There were a number of cereal options plus fruit cocktail and prunes. We didn’t have an evening meal in their restaurant. Note there's no lift but they will take your bags to your room.

Excellent location close to the sea front, friendly staff and attentive service. The room was comfortable with all amenities provided. Restaurant food was very good with plenty of choice from the menu. The only negative comment was the restaurant was closed for two nights during our stay, although a limited food menu was available from the bar. I would recommend this hotel to others.

Very nice position on one side of Steyne Gardens in Worthing, a few minutes walk from the seafront. Restaurant very welcoming, breakfast was fast, efficient and great choice with extremely pleasant staff on hand. Overall the bedroom presented well, however the bathroom ceiling was heavy with black mould, I suspect from a leak above and obviously been there some time and a bit worrying that it hadn't been attended to. Odd lock on the bedroom door that was difficult to fathom and a slightly musty smell throughout the ground floor areas. I would use again but if there's any hint of poor maintenance it will be off my list.

It was a lovely hotel. Very good for a couple of nights stay. Staff were friendly and a couple in-particular stood out (Reception and Evening waitress). Clean bed, clean towels. Not good for wheelchair access to rooms. Does what it sais on the tin...would stay again. Mirrors and plastic flowers on way into dining room need a wipe!

We didn't like our 1st room,we had as it was very small and not what we expected. Reception was very kind allowed us to chose another room; which we did and it was much better. it was one we had chosen, we were only changed as it was thought we couldn't manage the stairs or the shower in the bath. everyone helped us change rooms and carried our luggage downstairs when we left.

Our room was overlooking the main street Steyne Garden which was very busy until late night/early morning. The room was hot so we had window open so plenty of traffic noise. The queen bed was small and uncomfortable. We got hardly any sleep first night. Second night was cooler and better. The hotel dining at Indigo was excellent with a good range of food excellently cooked and presented with very helpful staff.

Walk in shower quite small with shower curtain constantly getting in the way. Reception staff were friendly. Full English breakfast was fantastic with nice coffee & toast. Breakfast staff were friendly. Location was central close to the beachfront, pier, shops & restaurants. 700 bus stop very close by. Yes I would consider staying in this hotel again.

The location was fabulous and they had wonderful different pamphlets and maps to help me as I was a tourist who had never been to this location before.

The hotel itself is good, the lack of parking, is no parking / just the street for which you pay is not good .. it was a very hot time , the room was unbearably hot, I asked for a fan and was told there’s air con .. why then given the heat wave did they care more about the bill than those that chose and gave patronage them that hotel to stay there ??! Also the air con did cool , but only just …breakfast was excellent.. really good . The very worst thing was the simply awful attitude and countenance of the older man as you check in .. the owner presumably… just plain unwelcoming, stropy , no smiles , gruff, miserable , unhelpful verging on nasty .. this is what / who you are greeting with as your first encounter at the hotel …room was upstairs , asked if lift , “ no , use the stairs”…no offer of help whatsoever…stairs are also narrow and multi level., not what you need after encountering’him’ then that after a king journey followed by a sweltering room …
