About the Chatsworth Hotel

The Chatsworth Hotel is Worthing's oldest and largest hotel, family owned and run now for four generations.

The Hotel is a prominent landmark in Worthing, with a rich history that spans over 200 years, playing a key role in the development of the town as a seaside resort. Located a stones throw from Worthing beach with stunning views of the English Channel, the hotel has long been a place of relaxation and retreat for tourists, dignitaries and locals alike.

Steeped in history there has been a hotel on our site since 1807, and as such we are a Grade II listed building, with beautiful Georgian frontage.
