Well located to shops, restaurants, bus, and walking distance to the train station, but room was pretty basic. Many eateries in the area which serve when the in house catering is closed (open 10:00-3:00). Building is old, so not surprised by some minor plumbing issues. Staff friendly and helpful.

I truly enjoyed my three nights stay at The Gothic House. It is lovely and dainty, clean with comfortable bed/pillows. Unlike one review I read, I did not experience any in-shower hot water issues after I inquired about it.

Perfect location for E Grinstead - right in the centre of town but set back off the road so not at all noisy. Rooms are cosy, clean, comfortable and well fitted out. Vastly preferable to a chain hotel. Highly recommended.

The building is about 500 yrs old so if you arelooking for a modern room look elsewhere also if you are a large person try another property it is a room above a pub. Very clean, comfy bed great tv and wifi service i loved ot and would return

The room is compact and basic. There is a door in the floor below that is constantly open and shut through the evening and started again at 5.30am this causes the building infrastructure and bed to vibrate and make a noise similar to weights being drops from a height! Very hard to sleep! Great location and ok for a 1 night. Goat kitchen adjacent for bar drinks and food in the town. Use church carpark for parking free 8pm to 8am so you need to buy a ticket AM if hanging around simple easy walk to get to and fro.

Generally a good experience, nice room etc.
Only criticism was finding it. A single door but entrance on the street but reception via the bar next door makes access confusing and difficult to spot from the road as you arrive in the car. There is no parking so it’s important to be able to see the place from the road before looking for parking that is close by.
