Nice freshly cooked breakfast, and good choice. Lovely modern bathroom, fresh and clean. Friendly hosts.

Kenneth United Kingdom

Apart from one of the best Breakfasts I have ever had (staying in any hotel/guest house) this place had such amazing original features/ that you could tell, had been lovingly restored. This place is probably in my top 5 beautiful hotels and believe me, I have stayed in over 100+

Renaab United Kingdom

Didn’t have breakfast on second day room was clean and tidy

Michelle United Kingdom

Superior room was lovely. The hotel was nicely decorated in a style suited to this Victorian looking property. Nice garden to sit in, good location. 20 mins walk to the beach and restaurants. Helpful hosts, nice breakfast. We would recommend this guest house.

Wendy United Kingdom

We really enjoyed our weekend stay in Sea Spirit Guest House. Our host Tony was very welcoming and friendly with a great respect to his guests’ privacy. Tony also makes the most delicious and creamiest porridge;) The guest house is situated in a quiet, residential area, which made our stay very peaceful. Everything was within a good walking distance. The room was spacious, with the cleanest bathroom we’ve seen. We had a view of a beautiful garden, to which we, as guests, had an access, too. We would like to thank Lorraine and Tony for having us and highly recommend their accommodation to anyone who is going to visit Hastings and St. Leonard.

Veronika United Kingdom

Everything aboustley spotlessly clean owners surpurb breakfast was brillant highly recommended we stay again

Colin United Kingdom

Breakfast fab options. The room was absolutely spotless as was the toilet. We is the separate toilet and it was not an issue. The place is beautiful and has lots of space to sit and relax . It is situated not too far to walk to town although we caught a taxi back but only £7 so not a problem
