"Overall a good experience for a family of 4. The price over the Bank Holiday was to be expected.
PROS:
-Across the street from the Brighton Pier and beach
-Rooms are very basic and small, but clean
-Room service was quick and helpful
-Check-in was fast, and simple
-Pool was clean
-Poached eggs were available, and all you can eat breakfast buffet was great
-Friendly and welcoming staff
-Decent restaurant with kids menu
-Close to city centre and many restaurants to choose from
CONS:
- Overpriced for what you get, but the kids wanted access to a pool, and to be close to the Pier, so we went for this option rather than an AirBNB.
- Restaurant / breakfast food cooked with seed oils (rapeseed oil), so if you're ok with that then no problem
- Rooms are small and basic, back room window barely opens, but assuming for security issues
- Back room facing pub, back street felt like it could have been a few hundred pounds cheaper, due to noise, mosquitos and no view.
- Inconsequential, but the kids noted "there's no hot tub" lol.
Overall we liked the hotel, but £800+ for two nights was CRAZY expensive, but then again it was the May bank holiday heatwave week 2026, so everything during this time wasn't cheap or was fully booked. 3/4 stars overall due to VERY high price for dated, small, back street facing room.
Thanks for having us!"
