Reviews and Ratings
The hotel had pros and cons worth considering. The rooms were very small and not as advertised, which was disappointing for security reasons, especially with a broken window catch leading to a fire escape. However, the room met our family's needs and could use urgent refurbishment. The service was great overall but lacked attentiveness during breakfast. The location was excellent for both business and leisure, offering a seaside setting near attractions and shopping. The dining experience varied from well-cooked to sub-par dishes. The facilities need improvement but are adequate.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room upgrade from a small single to a king room was fantastic, but the noise at reception kept me up all night. The service was a hit or miss with some lovely staff and others who were miserable. The location by the seafront was a bonus, but being charged extra for dogs was a downside. The dining experience was decent but not exceptional, and the facilities were just okay.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, while spacious, felt like they were hidden deep within the hotel and were quite stuffy even with the fan provided. On a positive note, the check-in and check-out process was quick for a short stay.
The hotel didn't quite match the pictures and felt a bit unnecessary. The room was small, poorly decorated, and had a small bed located at the back of the hotel. Despite this, the service throughout our wedding weekend was excellent, with helpful and friendly staff. The location was very convenient, facing the room for easy access to activities like Christmas shopping or event attendance at the Brighton Centre. Dining could have been better, although the options provided were good. The hotel's facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel may have some room issues, but it's still a nice surprise with friendly staff. The location is good, with a comfortable atmosphere, but breakfast could be hit or miss.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, but the TV was too small for the room size, and the cleanliness was lacking. The building was under renovation during my stay, which affected the overall view. The hotel is quite pricey for what it offers.
The hotel had some ups and downs. The rooms, although big and lovely with a partial sea view, were fitted out with two single beds, making it not appropriate for my stay. The rooms seemed a bit wonky, which led to a bad night's sleep. Despite being busy and possibly requiring a wait at busy times, the room did offer a partial sea view, adding some charm.
The hotel is in a great location on Brighton seafront, just a stone's throw from the beach. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but a bit in need of a refresh. The service was outstanding, with very helpful staff. The dining options were adequate, although portions were small. The facilities are well-maintained overall.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were large, spacious, and comfortable with a wonderful view of the beach, but they felt really old and somewhat like a prison cell. The service was very pleasing and helpful, with friendly and pleasant staff, especially on weekends. The location was great, very close to the pier and shops, but the parking situation was a bit challenging. The dining experience was just okay, and the Korean food was not to my taste. The facilities were adequate overall.
The hotel is in a convenient location, close to the city buzz and just a short walk to the beach. The service was exceptional with helpful and friendly staff. The dining experience, however, was lacking in variety and quality. The rooms, though small, were adequate for a short stay. The unexpected scaffolding was a downside to the overall experience.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were in very poor condition with torn wallpaper and stained carpet, but once inside, it was wonderful. The service, especially from Gisella, was very helpful. The location was excellent, just minutes away from shops and facing the sea. The dining options were good value for money. The outside of the building was not impressive, but improvements were visible.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was comfortable and spacious with a great sea view, but the wonky bed made for a bad night's sleep. The service was very poor, with unfriendly and unapologetic staff who even tried to charge extra for parking. The location was excellent, right on the seafront and near everything in Brighton. The dining experience was disappointing, especially with staff ignoring guests waiting to be seated and getting orders wrong.
The hotel offers a mix of experiences with a great location for exploring the area, clean rooms, and friendly staff. However, some rooms, especially in the basement, were disappointing and not as advertised at a higher price.
Waking up to a stunning sea view was fantastic, but the room was too hot to sleep comfortably. The hotel is well-located at the seafront, but the room had a damp smell that was off-putting.
