"Abit of tightening on stuff"

"Flagged as a 5* hotel, but more like a 3* as no comparison with Eastbournes other 5* the Grand. An Impressive building on the seafront, and ok but some irritating things such as a 1900's lift! with concertina double doors that were very heavy to open/close. Fortunately the staff were alert to it and frequently helped out. Its Quaint but soon became annoying. Our partial seaview balcony room was big but bland, with few power sockets and a wall bar as a wardrobe. The kettle was immediately under the TV and so when in use, the steam went all over the TV, we avoided subsequently for the serious safety issue it presents. The balcony was very narrow 1mx2m and limited by large access step. Both of us tried the £20 breakfast once and thought it expensive and poor quality, so we breakfasted out for the rest of our stay. Its very well positioned so lots of eating places nearby, plus the Pier, Bandstand and promonade walk. Free welcome wine on the first night, but not a great quality for a "5*" hotel. Altogether a good but frustrating place to stay."

"I've stayed here a few times and it's a great location, breakfast is always good."

"There was no WiFi all night had to keep going to reception and there was an additional deposit charge on arrival that I have still not recieved back "

"Excellent location and good value - a beside light and more loo roll would have got 5 stars!"

"Great hotel close to town with private parking. Staff were very friendly, clean room would stay again."

"We did not have breakfast , but we did have a sea view room "

"Excellent, very delicious "

"We stayed here for an overnight birthdat getaway. Lovely hotel and good amenities. This includes a bar and restaurant. The hotel has a small seating conservatory area at the front of the hotel which looks out to.the sea. Parking is in zone H opposite hotel controlled by Ringo.but its better to get a 24hr voucher for £2.55 from reception. Its a good location for Beachy Head, the beach and local shops. We had a seaview room with good views The room is decorated well and the bathroom has a bath with an overhead shower. More attention needed in cleaning the shower hose tube which had black mould/ timescale on it. But apart from that all other areas were clean. The beds were very comfortable. The room had a tv, clean kettle and cups with a selection of tea amd coffee inc biscuits. There is a lift to access all floors of the hotel . The hotel uses recycled toilets paper and water bottles. Drinks from the bar; We bought a bottle of water endorsed by the hotel by Aqua Libra- very expensive £4.55..and two bottles of Appletiser at £3.55 ea. I dont mind spending a little more but in my opinion this is a lot. We didnt used the 1912 restaurant, but it has good reviews. Overall, its a nice family owned hotel with welcoming staff. We would visit again. "
