Great place to stay in Hastings/St. Leonards-on-Sea. Magnificent grand hotel, spacious rooms and a lot of old-world luster. Plus, right on the bus lines to Margate Beach, Hastings Old Town and the rest. We would definitely stay again!

Beautiful historical building but just a shame not really clean. Tired and had paint peeling off walls. For the price fair but if I hadn’t have had discount from hotels.com wouldn’t have been happy.

lovely clean room and helpful staff . Worth noting that there is currently scaffolding on the front of the hotel - it was not good value to pay the extra for a seaview room only to look at scaffolding !

Hotel was ok, clean enough but needs updating. Hot water was very intermittent, I was told it needs to run for 15 mins before getting warm, but I ran it for much longer than that and still had to have cold showers every morning. Breakfast was overpriced for what it was. Great location and friendly staff.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel was very tired. Furniture was worn and dirty. Front revolving door was so dirty your fingers would slip on the handrail and your reflection in the dirty glass window was blurry. The tablecloths in the diningroom had sun spots and green stains. You can tell the management was investing in the exterior with fresh paint but the interior needed excessive work
