This was our first time staying at the hotel. The staff were friendly and very helpful. There was no issue when we needed to change our room, due to an unpleasant smell in our original room.

Good beachfront location but not the best stay.

Just one night. Beds were comfortable. No armchairs. TV very hard to get to channels from Guide which in itself took an age to achieve. Very convenient location. Overall not a bad choice of hotel but there was nothing that would drive us to stay there again.

Good location

Hotel was good, location was great and breakfast had a good variety. The hotel while nice is looking tired and could do with a lift. The pool could be cleaner and spa facilities should be updated. Staff are all great, very professional and friendly. Breakfast was good with excellent variety to suit all but the juices are either super sweet or so watered down that it doesn’t taste of juice. I wanted to treat wife to a spa treatment but website was not helpful in this regard. Not sure if it was this week’s receptionist or last week when my wife stayed but last week she stayed and order bathrobe with slipper and it was £5. This stay it was £15, don’t know why such difference and no explanation was offered. Other than that, it’s a lovely hotel with lots to offer and great location.

the hotel is a perfectly acceptable standard. It’s a little old here and there but the facilities are fine. The staff were excellent in all my interactions with them. Location was very good, for access to the lanes and the pier and waterfront. The beach front in general and the appearance of the hotel are a little shabby. Parking was very expensive but you get a very good discount through the hotel if you pay at reception.

All the staff at the hotel were very helpful and friendly, both the front desk staff and those behind the scenes. Jake, thank you for taking the time to reply to our pre-arrival messages and for looking after our two family bookings. We really enjoyed the vibe at the hotel, and the location is perfect for families. The pool was great for the kids at the end of the day, as well as before heading out for dinner. We will definitely be back.

The breakfast deal we had offered was £15 per day per person and kids (ours is 5) eat free. So we went to for. But this was subject to change, odvs this changed and the 5yr old was also full adult price. Price at the bar was ridiculous. The staff all friendly especially at the indoor heated pool which was the place we felt most welcomed. The family room was ok.

Excellent stay

Went with a friend for overnight stay in Brighton. The parking was easy (under the hotel); the staff were really friendly and helpful. The hotel is situated at the edge of the Lanes, lots of good restaurants nearby, it is on the sea front so lovely walks along the Promenade. The pier is just over the road. The swimming pool is small. Breakfast is really good - complete with someone cooking fresh pancakes and omelettes.
