    Unfortunately, because it's a very old hotel the room had a very weird floor that wasn't straight, and because it's a lot of old wood you can hear your upstair neighbors walking because the floor is creaking. That was the only issue.

    The location is incredible, it's really in front of the sea and the staff is great. Everything was very clean and organized.

    Some of the breakfast was wonderful but some of the breakfast was not so wonderful. Some of the cooked breakfast was not hot There was a lot of shouting outside the hotel during the night caused by some street-homeless people. There was a lack of choice for hot snacks at the bar but the Margherita pizza was filling, hot and scrumptious!

    The bed was very comfortable and the bath was wide. The barman was very pleasant.

    We were offered a basement room. Doors were not very good, you could hear people talking outside in the corridor and light was coming through this door to the room at night.

    Location was perfect, in front of the beach, very close to Brighton centre. Welcoming and smiling staff.

    Nothing really.

    Room was clean and fairly comfortable, although a little faded at the edges, for instance, curtains had holes in them. But bathroom was good, and seemed that it had been retiled quite recently. Clean as well. Bed was comfy. Breakfast was excellent, came up really quickly and all elements were very well cooked. Great location on the seafront.

    Very small room with view of a wall. But I guess there are good and bad rooms in all old buildings. Shower pressure a bit weak.

    Seafront, good location for conference centre. Not too far from station. Nice staff. Breakfast choice is OK.

    Perfect location with kind staff but a basement room.

    The only thing I didn't like was that I had a basement room - in my country, basement hotel rooms do not exist, though it was rather big. Another thing, the internet was terrible - I could not use my laptop in the room. I was told that despite boosters, the internet works only in the reception area, so that's where I had to grade my students' essays.

    Breakfast was superb - you can order a la cart a full traditional breakfast, or different options, like pancakes, fruit and so on. Location is perfect - near the city center and the venue where the conference was held.

    It wouldn't hurt to provide gluten free cereal. Although the fruit and yoghurt bowl was very nice and gf toast also provided its not a very substantial breakfast for the money.

    Nice spacious room with sea view, comfy bed. Some gluten free options at breakfast, although limited.

    The lady on reception I found rude and not friendly as we checked in, the scrambled egg wasn't cooked properly, breakfast wasn't really explained to us but was served quickly and was tasty apart from the egg.

    Stayed on the 3rd Floor the room was perfect and the view was stunning.

    Real maze of corridors to go through to find your room.

    Liked the sea view apartment though I had to pay extra for it as they’d booked me city view.
