環島酒店(The Roundabout Hotel)

Booked this as a mini break over the weekend at the half way point of walking the South Downs Way. It lies about 3 miles off the track and walking some narrow roads to get to it. I had Room 1 and found it perfect. Full Bathroom with Good heated towel rail. Spacious Bedroom with very comfortable Bed. Breakfast is complimentary with great variety of options making the cooked breakfast supplemental charge unnecessary. A great option at a reasonable price.

A comfortable, warm, friendly and welcoming hotel. The meals we had in the evening were delicious and excellent value, the continental breakfast was second to none and with so much choice on offer, enough to fill you for the day. We can honestly say this is a delightful hotel and we would recommend it to anyone. Thank you.

Lovely staff, lovely cleanliness of the room- smells divine. Food absolutely delicious all fresh! Ice cream is worth the calories! Cosy a**osphere and absolutely beautiful. Will definitely come again. Bread served whilst waiting for food at dinner time- lamb was scrumptious.

We have become regulars for morning coffee. The staff are very welcoming – top marks - and the building/ surroundings full of character. Subtle background music and even “no music” options in selected areas for meetings and relaxing. Can't wait 'till summer when we can chill with a bottle of Bolly in the gardens!!

My wife and I stayed with you Saturday night (1 night), we thoughally enjoyed our night away. Interesting decor and history. The room was very comfortable and staff pleasant. We ate in the restaurant and enjoyed the evening, although there was plenty of fat on the steak almost 40% fat, not soo appealing given the cost of our meal overall ! Our review is predominantly possative and enjoyed the night away, what an idyllic location. Kind regards Warren Stembridge

Ah, the Roundabout hotel, a place where chaos reigns supreme and the guests are left questioning their decision to stay. Upon arrival, we were greeted by a server who seemed to have no knowledge of the menu or the concept of basic customer service. When we inquired about the roast beef, she simply shrugged her shoulders and mumbled something about it being "tougher than a retired drill sergeant." (Well maybe she was thinking that, as it turned out it was tough). The roast beef was changed without argument for the chicken... oh but we have no more chicken so it will have to be the gammon.... And don't even get me started on the chef. Instead of being in the kitchen, creating delicious meals for the guests, we found him sitting in an office chair at reception, watching footbal loudly and ignoring the chaos that was unfolding in the dining room. Needless to say, the lack of attention to detail was apparent in every aspect of our dining experience. But it's not all doom and gloom at the Roundabout hotel. The decor may be outdated and the service may be subpar, but the entertainment value is truly unmatched. From the wacky interactions between the staff to the never-ending mishaps that occur on a daily basis, you can't help but laugh at the absurdity of it all. So if you're in the mood for a good laugh and don't mind sacrificing a bit of quality in exchange for entertainment, then the Roundabout hotel is the place for you. Just make sure to bring your own dinner rolls, because the roast beef is definitely a no-go.

Restaurant and food was lovely but the rooms need abit of TLC broken hose on hairdyer ,valve on radiator in bathroom is broken glass shelf fitting in bathroom doesnt look nice ,bin wasnt emptyed and tea and sugar wasnt replemished

I am writing this review because I was shocked by some of the negative comments in the (minority) of poor reviews. We stayed at the Roundabout on a Sunday night in January - arrived 5.30 pm, ate an evening meal, had a good night's sleep, and ate a good breakfast. It was an overnight stop on a two day walking trip, and was exactly what we needed. Very few hotels/pubs/restaurants in the area serve meals on Sunday evenings - the Roundabout suited us well.
