We had a room overlooking the sea which was delightful, with 2 comfortable beds , and both a bath and a fabulous shower.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The food was very good, the breakfast excellent, the staff friendly and efficient. we had stayed there before and we knew the position on the sea front was great. the pool was clean and well looked after. Our room was very quiet, we slept well.

Cons: Our room was very small. I understand that better rooms cost more, but as the hotel was really very empty, we might have been given something bigger, or with a view, to tempt us to return.

Pros: King deluxe with sea view

Pros: Helpful and communicative staff, decent location overlooking the beach.

Cons: Rather tired rooms with worn furniture, carpets and third rate shower facilities.

Pros: The Location and friendliness of other staff

Cons: My friends room 322 very noisy from lift

Pros: Staffs are friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. Location was easy to find and conveniet because it is near town center

Pros: It’s in Eastbourne!

Cons: My room was on the4th floor. I could have walked to the moon and it would have been closer to reception! The lift only travels to the 3rd floor and from there it was like a route march to room 402! The heating didn’t work, it was bloody freezing until I found a blow air portable that I needed to keep on, all night. It was awful. In the en-suite, the water escaped quicker from the basin than you could fill it! The plug for it was hopeless. The breakfast was absolute garbage. All in all, I stay in Eastbourne often however, I will not be booking into this Hotel again EVER!

Pros: Location value for money clean friendly staff.

Cons: Nothing really.

Pros: The view was lovely.

Cons: Double doors to balcony did not open was a bit disappointing.

Pros: The hotel was extremely good value and seaview rooms better.

Pros: The first member of staff to great us was lovely, young guy with short, light coloured hair, think he was local. Very friendly and helpful, excellent. We were given a room away from main part on third floor as the place was packed with very loud international students, so our room was quieter. Had breakfast twice the staff cooked us vegetarian sausages to order. Plenty of food, pastries, toast, fruit, yoghurt, cooked items for English breakfast. Lady who cleaned our room was very polite. Parking permit was given to us for £1 a day, just put it on each evening to cover next day, worked well. You just have to find a space on the seafront as close as you can.

Cons: Unfortunately the day we arrived a pair of men's pants were under the beds which had been pushed together to make a king sized bed. I was with my daughter and we wanted a twin room. The room was incredibly hot with a very small window which barely opened. View was lovely but hard to see round netting/ close stonework.They separated beds the next night, but the pants which we left by the bin weren't taken as they must have thought they were ours (despite us both being women! I guess they couldn't make the assumption though) When I raised what had happened the day we left, the guy on the desk, who was dark haired kind of Spanish looking/sounding, argued with me that I should have reported it on the first day. I said it was kind of embarrassing. He just kept telling me that "next time something like this happens in a hotel you should report it so we can deal with the cleaners'. It was like he was telling me what to do in a hotel. We are well-travelled! He was pretty much shouting at me as I left which made me feel horrible and put a damper on the day. What bothered me was it was extremely hot and the cleaners had a lot to do, I felt he was just going to fire someone over it. Breakfast was cleared away at 10 very promptly, despite the fact we'd had to wait 20 minutes for our vegetarian sausages. Lots of people who appeared to be staff seemed to wander around a lot not doing much. Often no one on the front desk and no security to the building as you didn't need a key to get to the lifts/stairs/room areas. Trying to cross the road outside is like dicing with death! Traffic is crazy but beach is opposite only a few yards away. Eastbourne- hmm bit dodgy not great! Pier is lovely though.

Pros: the breakfast was very good plenty of choose, location was good payed for a sea view and was very pleased with the view
