Crouchers Hotel

Overall satisfying and comfortable and...

Liked: The staff are friendly and polite.The room layout worked, nice decor and good ventilation options. The bed and bedding were amazingly comfortable and clean, and the room was a good size and quiet enough. I slept well. The bathroom was a lovely size too with a good shower over a great bath (which was very comfortable to relax in) and the towels were a nice quality. Casual diner - bar meal option was offered as a late booker, was tasty, and the seating and table was nicely set up for me - thank you.Once you get to the Itchenor/West wittering areas walking is good.
Disliked: The room carpet was stained in several places and needed a general clean up. The location is great only if you have a car and avoid peak times, otherwise it is difficult to access unless you pay for an expensive taxi if you can get one! I couldn't as non were available so took the bus that stops near the Hotel but I found it not to be a good option because the walk from either the local bus stops is very dangerous. The road side verges are all overgrown or non existent and there are bends so you have to keep crossing the road to be seen in the stretch of road between the bus stops either side of the hotel. I was at least advised by the driver of the bus that dropped me off that the drivers often can't see you at the two nearest stops to the Hotel, so to take great care. It verge walk really was scary with a lot of wide large farm vehicles on that road who did not slow down as they passed by. Sadly you can't get to the various public country or waterways footpaths that head to the beaches without several points of the walk/cycle being on this or another busy road route, though there are several other lovely walks nearby.If you do arrive by car, note traffic jams occur commonly on the route to the hotel due to it being the beach and good walks run and in peak rush hours times.

Good.
