Blanch House

We had a wonderful stay at Blanch House for our anniversary weekend. Our room was beautifully clean and cosy, with a very comfortable bed. We loved how easy it was to walk to the seafront and pier, and parking with the permit was easy. We only had the continental breakfast, but this was delicious. The best part was the warm welcome from the hotel team, who were incredibly friendly and helpful! Thank you, we'll be back soon!

Staff were awesome.

The breakfast was delicious. We paid extra for poached eggs on sour dough toast. Freshly cooked for us. The eggs were perfect. Lovely coffee too.

The staff were amongst the best I can recall. Happy, attentive and helpful. You could not fault them at all. The room was quite dark, the bathroom very, very small and the bed mattress not great. Mixed report.

Excellent room and breakfast was great to be included. Staff was so helpful given I booked the room 1 hour before checkin closed. Great place, location and even greater people running it!

What sets this hotel apart from all the others, are the staff. While many are getting rid of receptions in the city this one is not and it makes such a difference. We were so well looked after. The continental breakfast is also substantial and good quality. You can also upgrade to a cooked breakfast for a reasonable price. Would definitely come back

Enjoyed 2 nights away for our anniversary . Staff were 100% ! Helpful, friendly, nothing was too much trouble. Room was clean , comfortable ( could do with decorating ) but that would be our only criticism. When in Brighton we will book this hotel again.

Lovely stay! We will definitely be back!

Lovely hotel. Comfortable room and great breakfast included

Yet again another excellent stay and were remembered from our stay last year. Greeted as friends which was a lovely welcome

Super convenient. The staff are above and beyond. Will come back again. Convenient to walk to tje beach and pier.

Very nice staff and friendly! Caring and costumer-focused in every aspect. Can’t wait to get back to Brighton and definitely booking again here! We stayed at poppy room

Rooms were of a decent size Bathroom a bit on the small size Hotel a little out dated The hotel was spotless The staff were brilliant

Nice property close to Brighton front and pier. Lovely room, very comfortable although it was a very hot overnight and the fan provided was a bit noisy

The staff, Lydia and Valentina were excellent. Very friendly welcoming and helpful. The room we stayed in looked over a pub beer garden which was very noisy. Consider asking for a room away from this area.

Lovely little hotel for an overnight stay in Brighton. It’s in a great location, right near the beach, and very easy to find. Check in process was really quick, and we were given a bottle of cold water and shown up to our room. Continental breakfast was included, and was a perfect amount of food. We were offered toast in addition to pastries, fruit, cereal etc. The beds were super comfy and the room was very clean. A fan was provided in the room which was a great addition, however it was very old and didn’t give off much cold air! The room did slightly smell of damp when we first entered, but didn’t put us off. All in all, a great overnight stay and I would definitely stay again.

I always prefer to book into small businesses or independently run hotels, which is why I booked Blanche House. The service was great, from checking in, sorting out a parking permit, the breakfast & checking out. Clean & comfy rooms with everything me & my partner would need, we both enjoyed our stay & would definitely come here again.

Lovely stay, good location and super friendly staff. Car parking is an issue as mostly permit holders unless you want to pay £14 a day. Walked everywhere we needed to once we found a space. Good continental breakfast enhanced by Valentina’s happy service! Room a bit small especially the bathroom and no lift (luckily we were only on the second floor and only had a small overnight case). Individually decorated and tastefully styled rooms.

Good location and friendly team. Decor and facilities are a little dated

My husband and I have just returned from a 1 night stay at this wonderful hotel. The staff are so lovely and attentive - We had a great time and can’t wait to go back.

Wonderful hotel, staff were amazing

Had a 2 night stay at this hotel.Staff lovely especially the lady who served the breakfasts.Room was quite small and dark and ensuite could have been a bit cleaner in corners of floor, sink and shower head.

Quiet, friendly and helpful

It was great. Staff were friendly and helpful. Had a great night's sleep. I didn't have need of parking or a high chair so these questions in the review were irrelevant and there wasn't an N/A option.

I loved this charming guest house by the sea! Every staff there is friendly and helpful. I told them I was there for work and they were very accommodating in making the stay as relaxing as possible, communicating with me throughout the booking process too. I plan to come back for a proper vacation next time. One thing I will do next time is to book a room facing away from the restaurant/bar, which was quite noisy till late.

Convenient

Lovely staff, we arrived late in evening & they were very helpful. Only a quick overnight stay but bed was super comfy & a lovely continental breakfast. Good location.

Property was quiet, clean and decorated nicely. Staff were friendly and made the stay as they were so attentive. Would definitely recommend and stay here again

A really nice hotel. Easy to get to from the station and a short walk from the pier along the front. Very clean room, with extremely nice staff showing you your room. Breakfast was very nice and options to suit most diets. Fresh coffee and toast and amazing porridge. A really nice stay.

Super staff, great nights sleep, lovely room - if a little dark…could do with more lighting.

Thank you for a lovely stay at Blanch House. Nice room and bathroom. The staff are friendly helpful and knowledgeable about the area. The breakfast is continental but lovely, i had fresh fruit salad, and fruit juice plus fresh baked croissant and toast and a lovely cafetiere with fresh coffee, they also had oat milk available so that was great.

.

Fantastic stay in a very welcoming hotel. Staff were brilliant and couldn't do enough for us

Staff were lovely, very helpful. Room seemed a bit tired. View from window was of scruffy rooftops.

Great and comfortable

Amazing friendly staff, room was perfect, hotel manager helped with additional extras

Excellent

My stay was fine, but somewhat tarnished as when I returned to pick up my bags no one answered the front door, and when I pushed the door it ended up being open and I recovered my bags and left the property without anyone noticing me..

Very welcoming guest house, clean and warm. Located in the charming Kemptown neighborhood with plenty of bakeries and coffee shops. Super close to the beach. Thanks for a great stay!

Beautiful bedroom, lovely hosts. Wished they did cooked breakfast too, continental breakfast nice.

My wife and I arrived on Friday night much later than expected after a long journey in busy traffic. Staff there were very cordial and most welcoming. They could not have done more to help us relax. It was our first visit to Brighton - it’s wonderful, offering so much in culture, history and diversity. We hope to visit again and would book again.

Incredibly accommodating host and lovely place. I’ll be staying again.

Excellent hotel all staff very attentive and informed. Continental breakfast very good quality and ample choices which are brought fresh to your table upon order. Very quiet hotel and very comfy large beds. Only thing if you have problem with stairs hotel doesn’t specify floor number of each room which can be a problem as no lift. Location excellent just 1 minute from the front and close to many restaurants and pubs.

The cozy guest house was exactly what we needed it to be - close to the heart of the activity in the city, walkable to many different neighbourhoods and amenities, near the train station, steps from the promenade and cycling routes, plus a welcoming place to call “home” for a few days in the south of England. The staff were incredibly hospitable and went above and beyond what we asked of them - service stars! If we are in the area, we will definitely stay here again - otherwise we will certainly recommend it to others.

This is a great place, I enjoyed my stay. The lady at the front desk was very pleasant. I cant remeher name but i know shes Italian, she was very helpfull and gave me suggestion. Overall itvwas a nice place...

Lovely little boutique hotel, very welcoming and friendly staff, super-comfortable bed. Would absolutely stay again.

Very nice decor. Upgraded to lovely room at front of hotel. Very pleasant host who made us feel very welcome. Recommended.

We liked the hotel very much. It all started with a very warm welcome which couldn't prevent you from thinking that you would be among friends. Our room Legacija was rather big and comfortable. The bed was big and very comfortable too so we slept well. The breakfast was good. In case you need parking, you should be in touch with the hotel and they will advise you. The centre of Brighton is about 10 minutes of a leisure walk. The beach is just 1 minute walk. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. The hotel has no lift but they help the customers with their luggage.

Friendly, helpful staff. We stayed in the Moroccan room which we found to be comfy and in keeping with its name. A nice breakfast. Location is a nice distance from the town centre.

Came for one night alone to get out of London. Absolutely loved it and will be back with my partner or send my parents. I stayed in the Orchid room which was perfect for one but might be a little tight for two more than a night. The staff is AMAZING - so welcoming, so helpful. Located on a quiet street a ten min walk from the Lanes, but lots right in the immediate area. Simple, thoughtful hospitality. Thank you!

Wonderful property with a staff that goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome!

Blanch house was lovely, each room was unique in style and small but well equipped. The staff were lovely and could not do enough for you. Wonderful hotel. Great location. Would stay again.

The team were extremely efficient and friendly, nice breakfast

A lovely hotel, the staff very very friendly and helpful.

The staff members are very friendly and made us feel very welcome but unfortunately the room (Moroccan themed room) was very smelly and outdated. The room has limited sunlight and has very old feel. I would definitely not come back

Lovely staff, so helpful and a relaxed vibe

Lovely warm welcome from the staff at the hotel. Great location just off the sea front and very walkable into the Lanes. And beautifully made G&Ts

Staff were amazing expensive for drinks and poor cocktail selection but otherwise great

The hotel bedroom was comfortable and cosy. I slept well. The shower was really tiny and the water was lukewarm (rather than hot). The room was really hot when I arrived (I guess we're not used to having the heating on)!! Parking is available at Zone C for £14 for 24 hours. I had to park a couple of streets away. After checking out I realised that I had left my Samsung charger in the room. At first the hotel said it wasn't there. Then it turned out that the cleaner had found it and had taken it home in her handbag! So she had to return it - so that I could pick it up....

A lovely guest house - I stayed here a few years ago and while it has changed hands it’s still good. Great central location. The only things which could have been better is the coffee (very weak cafetière) and pillows too soft for my liking.

It was a great location close to everything. The staff were amazing so friendly.

The noise from the pub really disturbed as Iam an early sleeper but couldn't until after about 11pm when the pub had closed. Also there was so much dust in the bedroom on the bedside shelves, on the lampsheds next to the bed, in the wardrobe where we hung our clothes and the carpet did not look that clean. The bed was not comfortable although the bedding was clean. However the bathroom, toilet and dining room were quite clean and all the staff we met were very friendly.The carpets for the corridors, stairs and lounge need changing as they looked old and stained.

Just spent another fabulous weekend in Brighton in another truly stunning boutique hotel. The staff, the service, the bedroom, the convenience of the location, the continental breakfast, were all perfect! Hopefully we will return sooner rather than later.

Great service and very freindly team, made to feel very welcome . Room was lovely and the bed was very comfortable. Would definately go back

What a stay! Fantastic customer service. Breakfast was fresh & lovely.

Room very clean quiet and comfortable although a bit small. Good service friendly staff always on hand.

Lovely quiet hotel with really friendly staff. The room was lovely and very comfortable bed. Homemade biscuits next to the tea and coffee facilities was a really nice touch and oh so yummy!

Blanch House was so lovely. On arrival i was greeted by Faye who told me everything i needed to know about Brighton, inc recommendations. My room was clean and comfortable, the room was Alice. This room does back onto the pub garden of a neighbouring bar but the pub dwellers were moved inside at 11pm. Didnt really bother me as was out or sleeping just after 11pm anyway. This was my first solo trip and all the staff made me feel welcome and safe. I would stay again, Oh and also the cocktails are lovely. Thank you Blanch house!

This small hotel was easy to find, staff were really friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. Room & ensuite was comfortable and very clean. Breakfast was fantastic with lots of choice. Will definitely visit again.

A real gem in and up and coming area .The lounge and cocktail bar with fantastic drinks menu are great addition to this boutique guest house . Our room was spacious and comfortable with opulent furnishings.Excellent service and attention to detail made our four night stay a real pleasure.

Great stay from start to finish…all I can say is a big yhanks thanks 😊

Wonderful location super close to beach and easy walk to everything. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff was super friendly. Absolutely lovely boutique hotel!

We loved Blanch House from the moment we arrived. We were greeted by Faye the manager who gave us all the information relevant to the hotel and surrounding area. Kerry the owner was lovely too and so warm and welcoming. We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed every minute. We will definitely be returning.

Second time staying at the Blanch House. It’s a gem of a place.

Excellent and very warm welcome. Great room. Great location close to the seafront. Very comfortable bed. Lovely hot shower and fluffy towels. Lovely breakfast, but we did have to go and find someone to serve us having waited 10 minutes. Would definitely return.

Absolutely loved our stay. Most comfortable bed and doona. Large room , modern bathroom. Breaky was lovely- right near boardwalk- would absolutely stay again

Very friendly and welcoming. A delightful little bar set up on the main level. The continental breakfast has one of the best fruit salads! Wifi was fine. We were in “Renaissance “, which is small, yet very comfortable, with lots of little details that make it unique….I’m partial to the reds and golds….and the bathroom, all black! I must mention the one negative. There is a popular bar close by with an outdoor seating that is cheerful til exactly eleven pm. Then it’s silent. The tv or our travel music system was enough to block it out. We would definitely stay here again.

Property Manager did everything possible for our recent trip to ensure a great visit.

Really nice hotel, like a lovely old townhouse. Fab location, really nice and welcoming staff. Would recommend.

In my opinion this place had absolutely everything you might need for a short stay. The room was beautiful and clean - and warm which was a huge bonus for me in December! Everything we needed was provided, ample towels, basic toilettries, hairdryer, tea and coffee etc. There was always someone available should we need anything. Breakfast in the morning was lovely. Fab location, well within walking distance of most places you might want to visit. I’m only sad that we couldn’t stay longer!! Thank you so much for such a lovely little place!

Fabulous! Kerry the owner was so welcoming & friendly. Even presented us with homemade shortbread to go with our in room tea & coffee! Good, filling continental breakfast. Would stay again for sure.

Lovely hotel in good location for walking to The Lanes and the Brighton Centre. Parking bit of a pain if can’t get near hotel but otherwise everything great. Staff especially helpful great service.

Very welcoming, excellent hosts. Lovely room with conformable bed. Continental breakfast very good. Short walk to restaraunts and bars. Highly recommended.

Lovely overnight stay at Blanch House. All the staff were very helpful and attentive. Kerry the owner explained the parking arrangements and provided a 24hr parking permit, which was considerably cheaper than the council car parks. All in all a lovely hotel to compliment a lovely stay in Brighton.

The hotel was lovely and well maintained. The staff very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was lovely and fresh. A lovely experience, would definitely stay there again if visiting.

Basic room and basic breakfast. Its just off the seafront, but its way overpriced.

Fantastic service and a great room made for a wonderful stay. Would stay here again.

Great hotel in perfect location for sea front, shops and train station Room quiet and clean, service was excellent, and well organised in current Covid. Would definitely return

Location very good for the centre

Front of house was delightful as were all staff. Our one issue was with the included breakfast. We found that it was not generous - consisting of a small (stale) croissant, three slices of cheese and a single slice of ham. For the money we would have expected far better. Otherwise our stay was pleasant but this left a bad parting impression.

We loved our stay, thank you so much for looking after us so well. A very welcoming and lovely, well positioned, hotel :)

Lovely rooms. All made better by the front of house host who is by far one the best managers we have dealt with who obviously loves what he does.

Warm welcome on arrival. Fabulous room and very comfortable bed. Lovely smelling toiletries provided. Management couldn't be more accommodating and helpful.

The man was very friendly and happy to help with anything we needed, lovely place would book there again

Lovely hotel, charming people, good position in relationship to shops and bars

Attention to detail a little lacking. A lot of grout missing from toilet floor tiles - surely a cleanliness issue. Tiny shower with sticky hot boost button. Soap plungers ropey. Wonkiest ironing board ever. Just needed a bit of a spruce up to impress.

Very central location. But the main features are that this well established and long running hotel remains contemporary, high end and with very friendly staff and management.

Excellent service and attention to detail by Kerry the proprietor. Beautiful room

I think the hotel is not reasonably priced. The rooms were very dark while it’s kept clean Also think it’s a rip off as they don’t have a good breakfast spread and even eggs need to be paid for.

A very nice hotel with the most wonderfull owner. Very caring and helpfull and he knows how to mix a g&t! We got a large room with a great bath. Nice breakfast too.
