Top South Downs Planetarium and Science Centre Hotel Reviews

The Vestry

8/10 Good

"Located in the historic centre of Chichester, the location is hard to beat. The staff were friendly and helpful. The check-in desk is in the pub, which has a limited evening menu, but there are plenty of eateries within short-walking distance. The rooms are quite large and charmingly named after past cathedral bishops. The pub can be noisy to the early hours as it also functions as a night club. If you're noise sensitive, another venue would be a better choice. If you're into clubbing, then it's a short walk to your room!"

The Nags Head

8/10 Good

"Good Busy Hotel. Stairs to rooms a bit tired and windows in the room need a good clean but it's fine and the Staff were helpful and nice Breakfast"

The Chichester Inn

8/10 Good

"Whole stay was good value for money. Room was clean and tidy with a good breakfast. Staff polite and helpful. The only one thing was a little disappointed about was I was told they close at 11pm to find when I got back from Ocltoberfest at 10:35 they had closed the bar and I could not get a last drink before bed."

Travelodge Chichester Central

8/10 Good

"It was in an excellent position in the centre of the town."

The George & Dragon Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Great value for money very central in Chichester. Perfect for our overnight stay."

Whyke Haven * Modern Apartment w/Private Parking

8/10 Good

"Very clean property with virtually every facility you could need for a short stay. Parking is a nice extra but the garage is on the tight side (anything much bigger than a VW Golf will struggle to fit). The location is around a 25min walk to the centre of Chichester and there’s a small shop nearby for milk etc. the fish and chip shop is very good but be aware it’s cash only. The only minor issue we had (not the owners fault!) is that we left an item behind which we were hoping to recover via their lost property, unfortunately it wasn’t found. Highly recommended."

A cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for two nights to enjoy Goodwood Revival. The hosts left a nice assortment of snacks and refreshments for us and the check in/out process was trouble free. The building is historic, so ceilings are a bit low for taller people. I would stay here again. Thanks!"

St Cyriacs - 3 bedroom home in the middle of Chichester town centre

10/10 Excellent

"The house was very nice and even better than the photos. The living area in particular is lovely. It's in a great quiet location hidden away behind the high street. The hosts were also very accommodating when i needed to contact them."

Little Orchard Bed and Breakfast Chichester

8/10 Good

"This property is in an excellent location for Chichester centre and for Goodwood Racecourse. The owner was lovely. Friendly and approachable. Cleanliness is a priority for us and this accommodation was first class. Breakfast options were varied to suit all tastes and we loved the fresh fruit (not always the case in many places we have visited). It was a relaxing environment to start the day, especially chatting about Art. We have learned so much about Sculpture and certain Sculptors after our visit! 😂. The only thing to mention for future visitors is the lack of a fan in the room (we had a spacious luxury room overlooking the back garden). Due to the heatwave, it was quite unbearable during our 4 night stay despite having taken our own small fan. We would never book anywhere abroad without air conditioning and sadly, Uk is now facing such extreme temps."
