Good Points: The very personal sevice provided by the staff made a nice change to the robotic functioning you sometimes get at larger hotels. The bed was ultra comfy and accompanied by a good central heating system. The shower was very nice and everything in the room worked!
Bad Points: The windows were old and needed wedging on the second night when it was very windy but it wasn't a problem.
Further Comments: Not much else to say apart from keep up the good service. You made my birthday weekend in Brighton very special. At my request you provided champagne and chocolates for our arrival. There was no pressure on checking out dead on 12. The breakfast and papers were brought into the room by two cheerful young ladies which was really nice. The breakfast, by the way, was delicious! If I had to be critical about anything it would be the banging old windows, but they were easily dealt with (a magazine wedged in the side).

Good Points: The whole experience was a pleasure! The hotel was very well located, within walking distance of the sea front, pier and shopping centre. The room was full of all home comforts and bed was very comfy!!!
Bad Points: Nothing really, Parking was a problem due to its central location but we did find pay to park on the surrounding roads.
Further Comments: From the moment we arrived at the hotel, you could sense the welcoming and inviting environment! The staff were all very pleasant and helpful. The rooms are located over 5 floors, two on each, which makes it very cosy but as we were on the 5th floor it was a real treak up all those stairs, especially after a night out!! Well worth it though as you could see the sea and pier from our rooms windows, a beautiful sight at night with all the lights! There isn't a lift so isn't really suitable for less able people. A wonderful and filling breakfast was served in our room, you chose your menu the night before and get fantastic homecooked food at a time you request. Check out was smooth even though we didn't want to go!!

Good Points: DVD in room, nice big TV, small sofa. Breakfast in room.
Bad Points: All good!
Further Comments: I was very impressed by the hotel, I would the room was good value for money. It is right by the pier in Brighton so location is great. Room has big TV, DVD, Sofa so you can really chill out the morning after the night before! Having breakfast in your room is great. A sheet was given so we could choose what we wanted for breakfast inc quantity of sausages, bacon, etc - Everything was of a very good quality, you can tell the hotel prides itself on using quality products and preparing it well. I would recommend the Amherst Hotel to friends, family. Rooms can be found about ￂﾣ50 cheaper on the same street but having stayed in cheaper places before I can say sometimes paying a little extra and having a more relaxing time is worth it!!
