Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and tidy, though not very spacious, they had everything I needed for a short stay. The service was friendly and accommodating, which made my experience enjoyable. The location was great, close to Brighton's center and the beach, although the hotel could use some redecoration for a fresher look. The dining experience was good, with breakfast served in the room. Overall, a decent stay for the price paid.
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location was perfect, close to shopping spots and just a couple of minutes' walk from the seafront. The rooms were welcoming with fresh flowers, although the wash facilities were a bit compact for two people. The service was top-notch, with friendly and accommodating staff ensuring we had everything we needed. The dining experience was good, especially enjoying breakfast in bed, although having to pre-order was a minor inconvenience. Overall, a great value for money with a fantastic location and friendly service.
The hotel offers clean and nice rooms, but the service was a bit lacking. The location is excellent, close to the seaside, shops, and dining options. The dining experience was fantastic, with quality ingredients, but some restrictions apply. Overall, a good value for money option.
