Thistle Brighton

Location is great, rooms are fair sized, staff very helpful.

They use bt Open for internet access and their pricing plans are not geared to short incremental usage - would like to see alternate purchase options.

Staff attitude, location

Plumbing was shaky, bathtap loose, toilet flush intermittent

came to have a rest only to find they were drilling in the car park downstairs and you it was unbearable I came for a rest as this hotel has nice lounge which could not be used because of noise. The rooms were too hot and they had to provide portable air con unit as air con was inadequate

Good location

Hot airless room with no access to a window other than foyer , the air conditioning was poor and made the stay very uncomfortable . Check in was delayed as room was not ready.

The staff were lovely, the hotel itself in a perfect location, the hotel is beautiful

A little bit too expensive

Location of the hotel is great right on the sea front and near all the bars and pubs, restaurants and shops. We were really impressed with our room, very clean and modern. Staff were friendly and the security staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool was nice.

To park your car under the hotel was £20 a night, you should get a good discount for using the car park and staying over night or parking should be free of charge. The gym was a little bit small.

The quality of the room, the relaxing atmosphere the sea view, the very helpful staff at all levels.

Ken greeted the kids, gave them hotel gifts, remembered their names, gave them free run of the place. Staff very helpful at breakfast, carrying my food, rinsing sippy cups, etc whilst I was carrying the baby.

policy of 1 parent per child in the pool, regardless of their swimming ability, meant that we all had to use the pool at the same time which was a bit inconvenient

ease of booking in staff friendly and helpful. breakfast very good cocktail bar good comfortable and nice decor in hotel

Would have preferred a double bed instead of twin. Also when we arrived the tv welcomed someone else to the room. Finding the car park was difficult on a busy saturday afternoon, we rang after passing hotel and were directed by phone to entrance at the front, but there was a sign saying you couldnt enter that way and we gave up and went in the Lanes car park which was a little dearer, but ok. None of these points reduced how much we enjoyed our stay.

great location in the heart of Brighton overlooking the sea and pier

A bit pricey for the level of accomodation, but consistent with European rates.

Excellent location

Decor etc looking a bit 'tired'. Some noisy guests in other rooms kept us awake.

the location was perfect.

The fact that we had to pay for the hotel parking, when we were told by the hotel that that it was free. very disappointing.

Ideally situated for beach and for bars, restaurants, shopping etc. Many interesting places to visit within walking distance - Royal Pavillion, museum, art gallery, marina, to name a few. Enjoyed the gym/swimming pool. Friendly, helpful staff, relaxing atmosphere.
