Breakfast is the classic Premier Inn affair—all-you-can-eat, with hash browns that are dangerously addictive. But the real trick? The on-site Brewers Fayre pub is right next door. You can get a decent steak or a fish and chips without ever leaving the car park. Is it Michelin-star? No. Is it exactly what you want after a long drive? Absolutely.
And if you’re feeling fancy? The city centre is just a 15-minute walk away, with proper restaurants and cosy wine bars. You get the best of both worlds—budget-friendly convenience and the option to pretend you’re a food critic for one night.
PREMIER INN CHICHESTER SOUTH (GATE LEISURE PARK) HOTEL (INGLATERRA
Who Is This Place For, Really?
Honestly, this hotel is for everyone. It’s for the couple who want a quiet weekend away with a movie and a pizza. It’s for the family who needs easy access to both fun and sleep. It’s for the solo traveller who just wants a reliable base. Ever tried being a tourist and ended up stressed about parking? Not here—the leisure park has loads of it, free for hotel guests.
One thing to note: it can get busy on weekends, especially with families. But that’s not a flaw—it’s a sign that people love this spot. If you want absolute silence, just ask for a room overlooking the car park. Oh, and the staff? They’re genuinely friendly, not the fake “have a nice day” kind. They’ll tell you the best walking route to the cathedral without looking at their watch.
