Fantastic family stay — the pool was a real highlight! I had a fantastic stay at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton Waterfront. The location was perfect, the room was comfortable and the staff were friendly and welcoming. We absolutely loved the pool, which was a brilliant bonus and made the stay feel extra special. A great choice for a family break in Brighton — we would happily stay again!
