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!

The property itself has clearly had some work done on it. The room was clean and well presented. Customer service could be improved upon. Breakfast was okay however, the gentleman taking orders was in his outdoor coat and on occasion not all breakfast was delivered to the table clearly forgotten about.

A very good hotel. Excellent position with the sea front and town centre within easy walking distance. The Hotel is clean and well-presented and has undergone significant redecoration since reopening in May 2024. We found the staff to be very welcoming and always helpful. We stayed in a superior room which was well furnished and comfortable. We found the breakfast to be very good including hot and cold options all using quality produce, anything that was not right was willingly replaced. we had read previous negative reviews and were worried about what we might find but based on our experience we have no complaints about the hotel. Being regular travellers to Eastbourne we will have no hesitation in staying at this hotel again.

It's well situated fot the Theatre, easy walking distance, close to the sea front, the hotel was reasonably priced, it was more than adequate for one night, bathroom clean and tidy, the bed comfortable, everything was to hand. I have paid a lot more for far worse. Would i stay again, a big fat YES.

I have to say the hotel is very dirty. Black mould in the bathrooms. Water stains on the ceilings. Curtains torn and falling off the windows. Toilet seat broken. Shower and taps a very dirty. Walls have marks all over the place. Wall paper is coming off. None of the photos on the website is accurate at all.
