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!
