Good Points: We had a beautiful room with a balcony and sea view which we hadn't asked for. It was spotlessly clean and the bed was huge!!
Further Comments: We had a lovely time. The hotel was gorgeous. The only down side was the parking. There were no spaces in the hotel car park so we had to park in the public car park quite a way down the road which in heavy traffic wasn't much fun! Then we had to lug our bags etc to the hotel. The staff in the breakfast room left us standing by the check in area for some time. Several walked past but said nothing to us. It would have been so much better if they had simply acknowledged our presence and said ' someone will be with you in a minute'.

Good Points: As recently refurbished the rooms were very clean and new. The outside of the hotel still has the old victorian features as the fantastic staircase inside. Lovely old building.
Bad Points: When checking in a member of staff tried to make me pay ￃﾂￂﾣ60 more on my credit card in case of extras, she did not explain what she was doing and got very difficult when I queried it. One member of staff can make a big difference to the first impression, she needs lessons on good customer service!!!
Further Comments: Extremely good value, a lovely hotel with a lot of character and original features. A perfect New Year break, hope to be back again next New Year.

Good Points: Nice hotel which would be improved by appointing completely new staff.
Further Comments: Check-in a nightmare with no-one knowing what they were doing which led me to explain my booking to four different people in 24 hours. Breaskfast ltself nice but waiting staff inattentive. Overall, value for money but don't expect high service standards

Good Points: we were all really happy with our accommodation. The breakfast was absolutely lovely and the rooms were really clean. the fact that the patio doors from our room led to a courtyard where we could all meet was an added bonus.
Further Comments: i did contact the hotel direct to make sure that my accommodation was next door to my friends and was assured that this was in place. on arrival we were told that we were on totally different floors and nothing could be done about it. i proceeded to tell the receptionist that someone had not done their job properly and was still told nothing could be done. the manager was nearby and obviously overheard this conversation and the problem was quickly resolved.

Bad Points: I didnt like the fact I could not open my bedroom window, and that right outside my room was the fire escape, where staff or patrons were on this fire escape in the middle of the night making a lot of noise.
Further Comments: I didnt enjoy my stay at the hotel at all, I think it's absolutley outragous that you should pay such a price for such shoddy accomodation

Good Points: Very close to all amenities and opposite the beach, perfect location. Staff friendly and hotel very clean and modernised. Room cleaned daily with fresh towels.
Bad Points: Parking is limited (40 spaces) and if you do not manage to get a space then you have to park quite a few blocks away in a NCP carpark which is ￂﾣ25 a night!!!
Further Comments: I would recommend this hotel for anyone staying in Brighton who want a hotel close to pier, shops, bars and beach.
