Goodwood Revival Weekend, UK/Arundel UK

No, this is not a religious event. It's a weekend of classic sportscar racing near Chichester. Has anyone been to this event? I can't get a room in Chichester and am considering the Swan Hotel in Arundel. Has anyone been to Arundel? Can you tell me anything about it?

Arundel is quite pleasant - nice castle worth seeing.

Arundel is a nice little town dominated by a huge castle. I have stayed at the Swan Hotel there...rooms are small, but it's clean & has a good breakfast. Goodwood actually has a Marriott hotel right on the property....check Marriott's website for availability. Rates there are very reasonable.

Mark, the Marriott Goodwood is sold out for the Revival weekend. Any other recommendations for Arundel beside the Swan?

The Swan is the only one I've stayed at in Arundel. A guidebook had recommended the Norfolk Arms there, but the lobby reeked so much of cigar smoke I opted not to stay there. If you're not with a car, try a town nearby, like Worthing, where the train connects to Chichester.Best website with a lot of hotels to choose from is the auto club's there, "www.theaa.co.uk"
