Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Worthing
London Gatwick Airport (LGW), located 39.66 km away, is by far the most convenient and cost-effective gateway to Worthing, offering direct train connections in as little as 45 minutes. International travelers arriving at London Heathrow Airport (LHR) face a longer, more complex journey, typically requiring a connection through central London, which takes over two hours. London City Airport (LCY) is an alternative for business travelers, providing decent rail links via London termini, though it remains more expensive than Gatwick. Both London Stansted Airport (STN) and London Luton Airport (LTN) are significantly further afield, often exceeding 120 km in distance and requiring lengthy, multi-stage coach or rail journeys that are less practical for direct access. For those prioritizing speed and budget, a train from LGW remains the gold standard. When traveling from other airports, ensure your ticket includes the cross-London transfer and check service schedules for weekend engineering works, as these frequently impact rail reliability on the route to the West Sussex coast.

First time stay , and was very successful the room, bed , shower / bathroom were all on point.
We ate in the pub downstairs as well , food was average , fish & chips . Was all slightly over cooked, which was disappointing, but not a surprise. Food is only as good as the person cooking it, so be it frozen , fresh the attention to detail is on the chef/ cook .
Didn't take away from the room though or the stay .FromUS$98

Basic and no frills hotel in a prime location on Worthing seafront. I chose as it’s great value and the location could not be better. The place really could do with a refurb, that said, the staff are just fantastic. Such a warm welcome and everyone I encountered is so happy, helpful and engaging. So lovely, especially when travelling alone. Great budget stay and the people made all the difference.FromUS$65

Lovely staff but very disapointed at no soft close on room doors so lots of loud banging from about 06.00 Hot water tap in the sink didn't work - video proof if needed - and loud commercial vehicles outside reversing til very late and early morning. The windows were truly filthy. Lastly, despite complimentary breakfast they can't cater for Gluten Free medical needs and I couldn't purchase alternative.FromUS$61

Arrived to be told that £30 extra taken from my account due to 3 people and small dog visiting. This was detailed on my search when booking and as you can see from your request for a review it it addressed to Andrew, Kat and Anabel (2 parents and nine year old daughter), hence us booking a family room.
On arrival we were also informed of a party taking place in the building adjoining our room. Very noisy and little sleep for my wife's birthday night away. Nice farm in good location. Awaiting refund for my daughter who was always visiting the family room.FromUS$109

This was our first time at The Ardington Hotel, it is ideally situated in the centre of Worthing, close to the sea and all amenities.
The bedroom was very clean and the large bed was very comfortable. The bathroom although dated was very clean and the shower worked well.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and the little cupboard by reception with toiletries in it for guests to access if they had forgotten anything was great.
The breakfast selection was excellent and the two breakfasts I had at the property were delicious.
The hotel bar was a lovely environment to sit and have a drink in prior to going out for the evening.
I would highly recommend The Arrington to other travellers.FromUS$104

We stopped off at the Coach and Horses with some friends for a one night stay whilst on a short road trip. We had visited Bognor Regis earlier in the day and so arrived at the hotel late afternoon. The hotel is part of the Coach and Horses public house and is easy to find located on the A27. We drove here and there was plenty of (free) parking for patrons. We checked in, in the bar area of the public house and met the owner who seemed very friendly and helpful and after being allocated our rooms we moved to the adjacent (separate) accommodation building which is of much newer construction. Entrance to this building requires a room pass key giving a good level of security. The interior is very clean and contemporary in its decoration, our rooms were located on the first floor and this is reached by a flight of stairs. Our room was a good size, very clean and decorated with light brown walls with a darker brown feature wall behind the bed and a shining white ceiling and windows looking out over the green fields at the rear of the property. The room was furnished with an ornate wooden double bed with bedside cabinets, a table and two chairs, a dressing table with mirror, wardrobe and flat screen TV. A small chest of drawers was also available and complimentary tea and coffee facilities were provided. The room had free Wifi. The bathroom was all tiled and had a bath and shower, basin and toilet and ‘built in’ hair dryer. There was a ledge above the sink giving lots of space for our own toiletries and a heated towel rail, which is always welcome. An electric shaver socket was provided and a small collection of complimentary toiletries were also provided. Everything about the room looked relatively new being both clean and well maintained, it was very welcoming. Being at the rear of the property, there was minimal road noise from the busy A27 and we slept well that night with the windows ajar. Our host was welcoming enough, quite friendly and helpful really and later that evening we dined in the public house (subject of another review), after having an early evening walk along Worthing seafront. We thoroughly enjoyed our (short) stay at the Coach & Horses and would most certainly consider a return visit if we were in need of accommodation in this area. We would not hesitate to recommend this to others.FromUS$108
