Summary: Comfortable stay in lovely welcoming hotel. Vegan options at breakfast and breakfast pastries would have been welcome.

David Jun 27, 2025 11:16:43 PM

Summary: Visited Eastbourne for the tennis tournament and the hotel was nearby. The Towner gallery, good restaurants and the seafront were also round the corner. The layout of the hotel was labyrinthine, but our room was comfortable, clean and quiet, and the staff were very helpful.

Mary Jun 24, 2025 11:39:34 PM

Summary: The bed was so uncomfortable we couldn’t sleep. It also had a musty moldy smell like it had been very wet. Because we were on the top floor it got to be unbearably hot, which definitely made the smell worse.

S Jun 19, 2025 06:03:16 PM

Summary: This has to be one of the worst places I have stayed in a long time. The check in desk closes at 10pm, why did it not mention that when booking the hotel - I travelled 5 hours to get their and so had to reschedule meetings to get their in time. The breakfast does not start till 9am on a WEEK DAY! My first meeting was at 9am, I paid for breakfast but could not have it.

Arivoli May 28, 2025 09:39:08 PM

Summary: Okey

Katarzyna May 26, 2025 08:06:39 PM

Richard Oct 19, 2024 07:19:17 PM

Summary: The location to The Congress Theatre and good price, nice albeit small, breakfast so very pleased overall

Miss T Oct 14, 2024 10:38:34 PM

Summary: Nice clean sheets and towels but the carpet had some old hair ball, nothing major really, probably just not picked up by the hoover. However, all staff were super nice, smiley and helpful. Breakfast was very good and non-greasy. Would stay again as very quite street and literally by the sea front..

Arunas Oct 14, 2024 12:34:45 AM

Summary: Good

Leonard Oct 7, 2024 05:13:00 AM

Summary: Such a grand looking hotel & reception area & smiling staff when you arrive, such a shame it’s over priced especially due to the other bits I’ve mentioned in the review! Never have I paid that much for a few nights stay in a spa hotel that needs such repairs!
