The hotel was very good very clean and suitably situated for our weekend. Breakfast was excellent! The only bad point was that the swimming pool was closed all weekend and on the hottest weekend of the year and with 2 children it was a major issue! We would’ve stayed at a different hotel with a pool if we knew, the hotel should’ve emailed me before we got there to say but nothing was mentioned until I’d paid for our stay!

Check-in was incredibly slow. We tried to check-in early but we’re asked to return at 4pm at which point the queue was out the door! We returned twice over the next two hours to find the queue just as long. Eventually we bit the bullet and queued for around 40mins. Otherwise the hotel was all fine. Staff friendly, food good, room clean etc.

Great location and well maintained property. The outdoor ashtray/smoking cone is positioned right outside the hotel’s front doors though, so you always have to walk through a waft of smoke to enter the hotel…seems like something that could easily be done away with as it only serves a minority of customers, but that’s just my opinion.

Special instructions weren't passed onto property, so sofabed wasn't made up on arrival. Had to wait 30 minutes for someone to make it up, during which time I couldn't shower/change (as waiting) so delayed my evening significantly. McDonald's wrapper found on the floor, so room not adequately cleaned. Every other guest seemed to have robe and slippers for spa, nothing in our room. Assume another failure of cleaning staff. Reception staff (Antonio?) indifferent, blamed Expedia. Breakfast excellent, to their credit. Sadly not the worst hotel I've stayed in in Brighton, but still wouldn't come back here.

Great staff/views but poorly designed reno vation
Hotel was recently renovated but unfortunately renovation was not well designed- especially bathroom with the smallest shower I’ve ever used- was positively claustrophobic. Im 5’7” 170lbs and could barely move w/o touching at least one wall- anyone larger than myself would be like squeezing a balloon into a small jar. Sink was no better with a spout so close to sink edge u could barely get your hands under it with water constantly spilling over and onto the counter and floor. Thermostat didnt work and heat system was problematic. Colors and surfaces were uninspiring and drab. Next renovation needs a better designer.

Beautiful hotel.
The hotel was beautiful and the staff helpful and friendly. There was a good selection of food at breakfast in a lovely room. The only negative was that there wasn’t a more formal restaurant to use in the evening. While food was served in the bar it wasn’t the same as being in a more formal room.
