Very Good

Our 2 night stay was excellent
The staff were helpful , polite and were there when I had any enquiries,
Would recommend to anyone who was going to Eastbourne
Got a great deal and for the price this hotel was excellent. Clean room, comfortable bed, great shower. Only criticism I’d have is the shelf in the bathroom is very low above the washbasin and it’s difficult to wash your face without water flying everywhere. Apart from that no complaints.
Small but decent enough room and most importantly Hotel sheets!!!!.... Location is excellent right on beach.... Breakfast offering is in line with price, just needs a bit of tlc.
Room was cleaned apart from dirty shower end handle, broken bottom end of the kettle , reported to staff and sorted quickly and replaced new kettle.Room clean indicated but when we went back our room was Not cleaned @ All.Called hotel receptionist send housekeeper to cleaned our room.
Good Hotel been here 3x.during Summer i think would be nice to modern "pool" area a bit old design and nice if music play while using the hotel pool access more inviting..its quiet there .Other than that still recommend stay @ this hotel for 2 nights not bad.
Really amazing hotel, much better than I expected
Rooms are very big, high ceiling and right in front of the sea for an amazing sea view .
Highly recommended and will use this again.
Big thanks to Mark for welcoming us despite us coming very late and the receptionists were super too! (Didn't catch either name)
Rooms are clean and all staff are very helpful and great
Keep up the amazing hospitality!

Average stay with dated rooms and amenities. Breakfast was not great quality but it has everything you would need.
The staff was lively but this hotel really needs a facelift. The pool is really small which is why we booked the hotel. It’s a heated pool so if you’re looking for a cool down swim on a hot day it’s not this pool. The rooms look nice but the amenities in them are in need of some fixing. I booked a king bed room with sea view and was on the first floor so couldn’t see much of the sea with the dirty balcony railing in the way. The couch in the room springs were broken. It was fine for a one night stay and the air conditioning was amazing on a hot night. But the hotel overall wouldn’t stay at again

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room was clean, spacious, and the four poster was a great feature! We really enjoyed the large bathroom with the spa bath, and seperate dressing room area.
The beach view is the best thing about this hotel - except we got a minute twin room facing inland! The ensuite bathroom so small the bath was half size in order to fit. It was so small the toilet was really difficult to flush because the flush was so tightly fitted between the bath and the toilet you could hardly get your hand on it. The bathroom sink was really slow at emptying so scum was always left around it.
The common parts of the hotel looked decidedly 'tired' and not up to previous experiences we have had with other Best Westerns,
