Perfect Stay

Absolutely wonderful stay. Room was beautiful, with added bonus of sofa and reclining chair making the room a home from home. Excellent position 5 mins from seafront and Congress Theatre. Wonderful breakfast, lovely bar area for a night cap if needed, Chris & Caroline are perfect hosts, warm and friendly. Can not recommend highly enough.

Had a great stay here! Chris and Caroline were very well informed about the area, Chris' tip about the bus for the seven sisters really helped out! The place is clean, breakfast has something for everyone and they're willing to make changes if needed. Everything was great, no faults!

A gem of a hotel

Another lovely stay at this charming hotel. Chris & Caroline are the perfect hosts, and go out of their way to make you feel at home. The rooms are immaculately clean and comfortable. Breakfast is delicious, and beautifully presented. The location is perfect for access to the seafront, shops, theatres, restaurants/cafes and walks up to Beachy Head and beyond. Definitely recommended.

This is our second stay at The Ravilious and we were not disappointed.This gorgeous B & B stands out from all the rest. The owners Chris and Caroline were extremely welcoming and informative. The rooms and communal areas are tastefully decorated and exceptionally clean. The breakfast is tasty and freshly cooked, two of our party had full breakfast which they enjoyed , someone else had scrambled egg which they raved about, and I myself had omelette both mornings and it was delicious. The property is in a fantastic location for a flat walk to the beach & pier & town centre. Please do not hesitate to book your stay, you will not be disappointed.,

Superb friendly hotel.

What a lovely hotel run by a really lovely couple. We have never felt so welcome in a hotel. The rooms were to a high standard and the breakfasts were exceptionally tasty. The beds were very comfortable. The hotel is a very quiet area of Eastbourne from where you can access a number of excellent restaurants.
