hi from London, I'm a native speaker of British English

We usually don't use AT when we say arrive+ home. This is an exception to the usual rule: we say arrive at my office, arrive at work, arrive at school, arrive at the supermarket, but we say arrive home.

Good Luck

Usually arrived is used for "moving here to there." "Yesterday, I arrived at the hotel at 7 am." So even though both are technically correct, it might be better to use "came" because that is used as "move from there to here." So "Yesterday, I came home at 7 am."

Either one works.

'Yesterday I arrived home at 07:00 am'

Sounds less redundant (less like a Robot) and more human. But both send the message well.

I've said both for no particular reason one way or the other.

Neither they don't really make sense, you would say "yesterday I got home at 7am" :)
參考: I'm English!
