The location was good for the sea but 10 mins to the town center. This hotel is in it for the money only, customer satisfaction is not important. The parking is not free. For a double bedroom you must pay more although this is not communicated until you have paid. They hoovered the hall outside the bedrooms at 7:40am on Sunday morning ! The bedroom smelt of cooking. The window overlooked a neglected yard which was very unpleasent The breakfast was poor and service grumpy. The full price for the room was £112 which is incredibly bad value for money. Infact you do not get a discount you get the worst room the hotel can offer.

It was a nice spacious room with a good sea view, the beds were very comfortable. A good hearty breakfast and although it started later than we would have liked the owner bent over backwards to accomodate us. The en suite shower and toilet were very small, but I will not put it into he negative comments as overall the hotel was just what we wanted and was good value.

Going home The manager was a very or owner was a person who should not be in the job he has, he had no manners he would not even look at us he kept our receipts untill the day we left, he said it was because we might leave without putting the room keys in, as lf we as pensioneres would do such a thing, he is a really horrible person. I would rather sleep on the beech than stay at that place ever again.

Friendly staff. B&b style with addition of a bar. Did everything we wanted of it, but were just using it as a base so weren't very demanding. Parking a bit complicated and instruction incorrect - but that's not the hotel's fault, it's Eastbourne council.

The hotel is in an excellent position very close to the theatres (under 5 min walk) The bedroom was fresh and clean and looked like it had been recently decorated ? new tv (I know this cause we bough the same set recently). Staff were very obliging and courteous. We met the proprietor who was very helpful and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was lovely and hot with an endless supply of coffee. We enjoyed our stay and were pleased to have overlooked the other reviews which were not so good! For price and value I think you'll have to go far to beat.

I would have had a better impression of the hotel if we'd been given a sea-facing room. I'm sure it was not fully booked but we still given a rear-facing room. The lounge and restaurant were quite attractive, the room had a nice bathroom. The person who checked us in did not speak English very well, the breakfast hours were too short (8 - 9.30), check-out time too early (10 am), bed too hard, tv tiny & incorrectly programmed, lift cramped with no door or warning signs.

Staff were friendly and it was in an ideal position for Theatres and Beach, Our room was comfortable and clean as was the restaurant. Would have been good to have had some dried fruit and nuts to sprinkle on the cereals at breakfast.

Staff very friendly and efficient, excellent breakfast. Thank you for making us feel welcome. We had a late booking so only had room that was available, which I think was a family room 1 single and 1 double. We would normally just have a double room so would have preferred more space to get in and out of the double bed which was against one wall. Thought the room was fairly plain, and perhaps a picture would help. The tv was very small. Surprised to have blankets and not a duvet - can't believe I said that. Facilities good and very acceptable. Very quiet room as asked for.

Absolutely nothing at all do not stay at this hotel. Nothing happens there..no restaurant opens at all, although stated on the website...breakfast was horrible and not enough of it anyway. The management lie there is no entertainment as stated on website, never anyone at reception, very short staffed.....the staff is mainly youngsters barley out of nappies!!! My stay was over the bank holiday...what a disappointment......When I complained to the Proprieter he said go somewhere else then!! However, I could not get my money back.....So do not book without seeing the Hotel First...a shear waste of money!!!!!!!!!.
