Lovely hotel with stunning views
Our first visit to this hotel, but hopefully not our last! The hotel oozes old-time elegance and service. We had a sea view room, and had a stunning view of the sunrise each morning. We were travelling with our dog, so were unable to visit the restaurant, but were able to order from the restaurant menu to be delivered to our room, for both dinner and breakfast. The bed was so comfortable! With the exception of the lady who checked us in (who rushed and was very abrupt), the staff were warm and friendly, and very helpful. The bathroom was very tight for size, but not a lot that can be done about that. Parking was easy on the road outside the front door, so we didn't investigate the car park. I would stay here again without hesitation when in Eastbourne!

This was like stepping back in time and I loved it. My daughter in law and I shared a twin room with a sea view and were very happy with the selection of hot drinks, biscuits and water provided everyday - and we had a ‘fridge! Breakfast was served on tables set with white tablecloths, the staff were lovely, the lift quirky - and I need another stay soon. There is a small carpark for the hotel at the rear but not a pleasant walk in the dark in the rain, however roadside parking is usually available, but might prove a little difficult in the summer months!

The hotel setting was superb. We had a sea view and it was very convenient for walking into the town. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were friendly.

A large Victorian hotel. Bedroom decor was modern and fresh. Breakfast was good but service was a bit slower than we would have liked. We did not use the restaurant otherwise on this occasion. A gym would be a good addition to facilities.
