We had booked 3 rooms and ended up not staying the night and decided to drive home. The rooms were were in a ver y bad state. One room the single on floor 4 had a cracked sink and the toilet didn’t flush. The room on floor 2 had all stains up the walls and was dirty. The room on floor 1 was more like a prison cell with dark stained walls and very noisy rooms next door. Rather than stay we drove 2 hours to get home after a show.

I stayed for 2 nights for my weekend race. All good for me for the price. No issues. I would recommend it.

Lovely staff, lady on reception offered to change my room on telling her initial one had a draft so pleasant check in and check out - Yes it’s a bit tired and could do with a refurb but at £30 on a Saturday night right on the seafront and a 10 minute stroll from the station, nothing to grumble about

Like many old large hotels, it desperately in need of a revamp.But saying that we had booked a Seaview room which had lovely views over the pier and the room was lovely and warm and the money we paid it was excellent value for moneywe will definitely stay again.

Lovely staff and pleasant stay

Couldn't ask for a better location in Eastbourne, limited car parking is available at £6.00 a night. This place really is a mixed bag, it's an old seafront hotel that whilst tired in a number of areas is clearly having huge amounts of money being spent on it through refurbishment. In my room all of the furniture appeared brand new whilst in contrast the bathroom was something from the 70s. The mattress was rather soft but the sheets were good quality and seemed brand new. The view was as good as it gets, (in Eastbourne) and the room itself was well heated to the point where I had to open the window. The corridors all seemed recently decorated but one or two of the stairwells haven't yet been redecorated. The lifts were something I can imagine appearing in a Harry Potter film but easier than the stairs. The public areas were numerous and spacious with new furniture throughout, the viewing areas onto the seafront were a great place to sit with an evening beer or two. Some areas towards the rear of the hotel were tired. The staff were smartly dressed and friendly and the drinks well priced, didn't try the food as had already made plans to eat elsewhere. There was clearly refurb work going on although I didn't hear any noise from it I could see new carpets being taken in, what looked like windows being replaced at the back etc. All of this said, the price I paid for the room was low and with that comes lower expectations and I left happy.

Although I found it a bit dated it was quite comfortable and very reasonable price, (carparking is £6 per day). Staff very helpful and friendly. The bar is bright and cheerful with views of the pier and seafront. I didn't eat at the hotel although the menu looks good.

I had a very comfortable stay, with daily housekeeping ensuring I had all that I needed
