Good Points: The Hotel did all that it said it would on the packet and more! The staff were very polite and very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The hotel is very clean and also very unique.
Bad Points: Nothing really. Bath was a wee bit small but had to be due to the nature of the building. Still nice to have a jacuzzi, with, I might add, hot water late at night!
Further Comments: Our stay was really lovely, the staff were great, the hotel spotlessly clean, comfy bed in a lovely warm room but not stuffy. We stayed in the Chinois Room which was quite exquisite, a great view of the square and the sea. Location was great too, easy walking distance to the centre of Brighton. Breakfast was at a reasonable time not the crack of dawn and also a very reasonable check out time. We will be returning to try out the other rooms and will definately recommend The Royal Pavillion House Hotel to friends, even though we live not far from here ourselves!! It really was a breath of fresh air and renewed our faith in privately owned hotels after reading some of the reviews of others, we were nearly all set to go to a 'chain' hotel. Glad we didn't. Many thanks to our Host.

Good Points: The actual hotel was very interesting and individual. I like the idea of the all the rooms being seperately themed
Further Comments: The hotel was looking slightly tired but bearing the owners had only moved in two days previous I am sure this will soon be rectified. One slight issue,the breakfast times need to be earlier for business travellers as I was informed it didn't start until 08:30

Good Points: Room was fantastic, excellent service and friendly staff
Bad Points: Only fault would be no lift in the hotel
Further Comments: Stayed one night in Brighton to visit relatives. Hotel was a family run hotel. Each room has a theme running through it - ours was a Chinese Garden theme with handpainted scenery on all walls, jacuzzi bath with showerhead, tea and coffee, mini bar, free snacks, tv, dvd and didgi box. Bed was comfortable and room clean. Price included breakfast - juices, cereals and hot breakfast - we had bacon, eggs, tomatoe, hash brown, baked beans, fried bread - very very yummy with a hot pot of tea. Staff were friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. We arrived early and were able to leave our bags in reception and go out. Checked in about 2ish. Checkout time was midday and again we were able to leave our bags at reception as we had a few things to do in Brighton. They arranged for a taxi to take us to the station.

Good Points: The room was nice and the staff were so pleasant and helpful.
Bad Points: ON arrival, the outside was not inviting and it got worsre when entered the main hall and then in the reception - come dining area. This was awful and I nearly left immediately. The climb up four flights of stairs was shattering especially carrying luggage etc and narrow stairs. Because of this,, I would not stay again.
Further Comments: I would rate this a 1 star and not 4 star. NO LIFT and the steep stairs need highlighting, as this is very important. (If you did I didnt see it so you will need to address this). There was only a bath and no shower. No evening meals available. I am a female and travelling on own so I did not want to wander out at night. This is very important for lone travellers. In future I will stay at the larger hotel chains.
