Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Goede locatie en hygiëne, persoonlijk welkom van de gastheer.
In het weekend/hoogseizoen kan het lastig parkeren in de buurt zijn.
Nick and his staff are amazing. So friendly, and efficient. The breakfast is good, and you're made to feel like one of the family!
We had a room at the top of the hotel. As space was a little limited, the hand basin was next to the bed. Whilst this wasn't ideal, we understood the reason for it and it didn't really impact on our stay.
Die Zimmerausstattung
Nick was fantastic. Made very welcome and just a great guy. Brekky was nice and altogether felt at ease. Would recommend 👌
N/A
Enjoyed the breakfast and homely feel of the accommodation. The host was welcoming and friendly. Great location for transport and the beach.
Breakfast slot could be longer and bathroom could do with towel rail
Nick the owner was an excellent host couldn’t do enough for us breakfast was superb great value for the price will definitely be returning and as my sister lives in Eastbourne I have recommended to all the family members
It's my third time in Eastbourne and my second time staying with Nick and his family. Next time I'll stay with them again. The B&B is so close to the beach that you can hear the waves and it's close to the pier and small stores, which is super convenient. Nick is always happy to help. I had a problem with the shower because the boiler was too high up, and I'm short. He came up right away, and we found a solution. The breakfast was also homemade and fresh when you came downstairs. What I really loved was that they were allergy-aware without making a fuss, which made me feel like a normal guest. Thanks again for my wonderful week with you.
Compact room and ensuite located metres from the seafront (we had sea view). Street parking is tight, but you’ll get a spot somewhere nearby and it’s free. Excellent breakfast made with love by host Nick and family. Guest lounge on ground floor. First and second floor rooms serviced by stairs. We enjoyed our stay in this Trad seaside hotel and would stay again.
Nick is the perfect host and will do anything he can to make sure your stay is enjoyable. The hotel is just off the Eastbourne beach pathway and an easy 10 minute walk from the center. It is outside the pay parking area so street parking is free. Breakfast is great and their are plenty of restaurants/takeaways nearby for dinner. Just tell Nick your interests and he will offer a useful suggestion of how to spend your day.
Be aware it takes a few minutes for the hot water to reach the rooms on the top floor. Be patient, it does arrive eventually. As most locals know that the parking is free here they use it also. So finding a free spot is not guaranteed, but I got one each evening close by.
Brilliant location and wonderful staff.
Nothing to dislike.
Bardzo dobre śniadania, bardzo miły i pomocny gospodarz, domowa atmosfera. Bardzo dobra lokalizacja obiektu tuż przy promenadzie i bardzo blisko przepięknego molo, które stanowiło tło w wielu znanych filmach np. Poirot. Blisko komunikacja miejska którą można się dostać na przepiękne klify kredowe Seven Sisters i do innych przepiękych zakątków tego hrabstwa.
Nice quiet location but still very close to the sea front and a short, pleasant walk to the beach. Very clean. Good choice of cereals etc for breakfast. Excellent WiFi. Lovely guest room and nice decor. .
The bed was a bit soft for my liking. Also floorboards are a bit creaky. The cooked breakfast wasn't great quality but probably not bad for the price. TV was a little small.
Very friendly staff.
Nick was an exceptional Host, always attentive and had good tips for the area.
très bon accueil et ambiance familiale appréciée nous avons été très bien conseillés sur les environs et les choses à faire ! Nick a été patient et serviable malgré notre anglais approximatif les chambres familiales sont sympas et le petit déjeuner très copieux
le point un peu moyen est la difficulté à se garer à proximité mais une fois les valises déchargées, ce n'est pas gênant de marcher quelques minutes.
la gentielzza dei proprietari
Friendly host. Breakfast excellent Location perfect for seafront and access to Eastbourne
Nothing I did not like. Suggestion to improve guest experience would be access to a fan when weather exceptionally hot
Breakfast was good
As it was close to the main road and as it was hot and having both windows open at night you can heard the traffic noise.
Friendly welcoming staff, breakfast was great as so many options. The room was decent for a single room, had all I needed to sleep for a few nights after a hectic few days.
Didn't dislike anything.
Friendliness and location
No fan in the bedrooms really hard to sleep. I know it's exceptional weather but it's also summer. At a small increase in rates I'm sure customers would really appreciate it we were on the top floor, but even people on the ground floor were to hot.
The owner of this property went out of his way to help us, couldn’t have done better, only started the night due to circumstances however found it very clean comfy , for breakfast there was a very fresh and a very good variety of to choose from. I would definitely recommend this place 😎 💯.
Can’t honestly say there was one thing I didn’t like, maybe a lift but wouldn’t put me off.
Friendly welcome, good location comfy bed. Repair dealt with quickly
Found Rubbish in the drawers, & behind them. carpets not cleaned around the edges, shower a bit hit & miss. No fans
Terrible experience from the very beginning. When we arrived around midday, we simply wanted to drop off our bags before going to the beach. The host immediately told us that check-in was at 4 pm and said, “Which part of 4 pm don’t you understand?” The comment felt extremely rude and made us feel as though we were being treated like idiots for asking a simple question. He then told us that he was going to work and didn’t have time to talk to us. We were shocked, as we had never experienced such unfriendly treatment at a hotel before. We simply said, “Okay, you go to work and we’ll go to the beach.” The host apparently did not like our response and then threatened to cancel our reservation. We were travelling with two children, which made the situation even more stressful and upsetting. The host later apologised, but unfortunately, the apology could not make up for the terrible first impression or the way we were treated upon arrival. Overall, a very disappointing experience that started with completely unnecessary hostility and stress.
As above
Breakfast was nice, host was very good, the room was far too poor for the price we paid. Location good.
Not much
* No parking available at the hotel. There are only a few parking spaces on the street, and we were lucky that someone happened to leave just as we arrived. * Our two daughters, aged 11 and 14, were not allowed to share one room, even though we, their parents, were staying in the room directly next door. * The host did most of the talking and did not seem willing to listen. We did not feel warmly or welcomingly received. * CCTV cameras at reception also recorded the audio of conversations. * The bathroom was very small, with the washbasin directly next to the bed. * The double bed was very small. * Our room was in the attic and was very hot and stuffy. There was no fan or air conditioning. * There is no lift, so we had to walk up to the attic floor. I had suffered a torn ankle ligament five weeks earlier and was still experiencing pain.
The location is perfect, straight forward access to the town centre, across the road from the sea. I got up early to watch a sunrise. I felt very safe. The welcome is friendly. I liked Nick’s sense of humour. The welcome pack is very comprehensive. The breakfast is copious and very well organised.
Maybe that I had to choose the time when I had to come for breakfast the next morning, although I fully understood the reason behind this.
Our 2nd stay at the Reymar and as ever Nick is a wonderful host and presents a delicious choice at breakfast. Common room available with board games and books.
On street parking can be a bit challenging during busy times!
Leuke locatie, heel vriendelijk personeel
De hygiene van de badkamer was echt onvoldoende. Schimmel in de douche en het rek in de douche hing vol oude zeepresten
Nic and Staff,location,food
Room 7 quite snug 36 steps up will 💯 stay again just on the ground floor
Ontbijt, service, locatie.
Eigenlijk een te klein bed voor twee personen.
Nice people, good breakfast
Shower pressure
Great location.Good choices at breakfast.Very helpful and friendly owner.
The B&B was great. Nice owners. Everything available for a good breakfast.
breakfast was excellent and cooked fresh each day and a good choice of cereals, bread and yoghurts. Only 10 minute walk to the pier up the seafront and another 5-10 mins to town. Rooms were quiet even though all rooms were full.
The sun was very hot and so were the rooms. I had to buy a fan to keep cool at night and kept curtains closed all day. The bathroom was quite cozy and shower a little temperamental.
room was clean, excellent breakfast very good choice. nice to have enough coffee milk etc. instead of been limited. all staff very friendly and welcoming,
nothing could not fault anything.
Staff were very nice and warm. The property's location was excellent, situated a stones throw away from the beach and a 15 minute walk into the main town
The beds were extremely uncomfortable. My bed springs were completely gone, to the point that I sunk into the middle of the mattress. There were no fans in the room, despite it being 30 degree weather. The cooked breakfast was not very good (mainly the eggs) and some of the showers had very little pressure. For the price we paid, we would have expected much more
Frieldly staff
Nothing
Die Unterkunft ist sehr strandnah. Zimmer und Frühstück sind in Ordnung, aber sehr einfach. Das Internet klappt einwandfrei.
Der Wasserdruck im Doppelzimmer unterm Dach ist sehr niedrig, sodass das Duschen viel Zeit in Anspruch nimmt. Leider hat der Besitzer im Vorfeld nicht auf meine wiederholten Anfragen per E-Mail und booking geantwortet. Da wir mit dem Zug gereist sind, wollte ich das Gepäck vor dem eigentlichen Check- in um 16Uhr unterstellen. Auf diese Anfrage habe ich keine Antwort erhalten. Glücklicherweise kam bei unserer Ankunft zufällig die Schwiegertochter aus dem Haus, sodass wir die Koffer im Hof abstellen konnten. Laut Buchungsbestätigung hätte das Zimmer Meerblick haben sollen, hatte es aber nicht.
Location great, was able to walk to the centre of Eastbourne. Breakfast was excellent. Good choice offered.
Breakfast was very nice, and the host was friendly and communicative throughout my stay. The room itself was a little tired, with the chair, curtains and lamp showing signs of age and wear. My room was also on the top floor, which meant carrying a heavy suitcase up several flights of stairs, as there was no lift. This may be something for future guests to consider when booking.
not being able to park near the hotel, parking was exceptionally full on all the streets, sometimes having to walk for 10 minutes
Prime position Friendly
The mattress......when you lay down, sit up, move the springs made a noise
Good location
Nothing
Hartelijke ontvangst. Prima kamer. Heerlijk ontbijt.
Great for beach, rooms, breakfast and host. Thanks again
The location was good, right near the water, and you could walk to the pier.
The weather was exceedingly hot and the property was unable to provide a fan for our room. We were extremely uncomfortable both days we were there. They also need to invest in new firm mattresses for the rooms with twin beds. My mattress was in poor shape to sleep on and it hurt my back.
Locatie aan zee was top alsook het ontbijt. Zeer propere kamer met comfortabel bed.
Kamer was aan de kleine kant voor een familiekamer. Iets meer meubels zoals een tafel en kasten zouden welkom zijn.
Breakfast was amazing 🤩 and the location was great too.
I would have liked to have checked in earlier around 12:30am would be wonderful.
Good location, nice owners, good cooked breakfast and plenty of other choices.
Our room was very hot, a fan in the room would have been good. Our mattress was well passed it's sell by date and really needed replacing.
Nothing
Rude owner Broken shower
Very good breakfast. Good choice in self-service and nicely cooked items to order.
Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Nick ist ein sehr netter Gastgeber.
Very friendly helpful and professional staff
Leaving
Sehr freundliches Personal und super Lage. Frühstück super
I had a very pleasant stay at the Eastbourne Reymar. Nick made me feel very welcome when I arrived. Nick and his staff are absolutely lovely. I have no hesitation recommending this lovely b & b. Thank you
Cozy apartments & friendly host. Great area, close to the beach. Recommended!
Die Lage vom Hotel
Das Zimmer (Zimmer 15) ist nur für eine Person geeignet, nicht für zwei, zu eng, schlechte Matratzen, hängen durch, Waschbecken im Zimmer, daher keine Privatspähre.....nicht ordentlich gesäubert, noch nicht einmal das Bettlaken glatt
Very friendly family run bnb, friendly staff, nothing is too much trouble . Great location.
Das ganze Haus ist sehr heimelig gestaltet und dekoriert. Der Aufenthaltsraum ist wie ein typisch englisches Wohnzimmer und der Früstücksraum ist supersüß dekoriert. Das Frühstück wird vom Inhaber Nick persönlich serviert und in der Küche zubereitet. Nick und Hannah sind tolle Gastgeber.
Nick was the perfect host ,our room was perfect with sea views and he cooks a decent breakfast 👌 would definitely recommend this hotel
Nothing it was the perfect stay
Good breakfast Friendly staff
They went above and beyond
The room was clean, and had everything need. Breakfast excellent start to the day with all the buffet cold options and a cooked option. Nick is a great character and adds the genuine family appeal. There is free parking on the street in the vacinity of the hotel and provided you weren't back to late you would find a space. If not seafront is free over night just need to move before 8 am and you can then move to the street parking.
The mattress could have been a bit more comfortable, but not a major issue.
Lovely comfortable room. Excellent breakfast and friendly staff
Nothing
Nick is welcoming host, and the Reymar is very well located, minutes from the sea. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was very well organised, and our stay represented good value for money. Though we do not have children ourselves we noticed that there were bowls, and cups and cutlery that was all child friendly, and we thought that was kind and thoughtful.
The pillows were very thin, and the shower was erratic, going unpredictably from hot and cold which was a bit unnerving. Saying that for a clean comfortable friendly stay in Eastbourne we could could not fault the value for money.
Thats it not too far from the beach and town centre
Parking
Good location, clean, friendly staff, excellent breakfast
Location
The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Phil remembered the purpose of my/our visit to Eastbourne. He gave us useful information about where to eat near the hotel.
The room floorboards creaked a little. The hand basin was a little cracked. The single bed creaked. The bread for toast was not very nice - wholemeal would've been nicer than the brown/white.
Nick is a fantastic host, nothing was a problem. He was down to earth & friendly. Great location for the town & local attractions. Fantastic value for money B & B
Nothing to dislike
We had a wonderful stay at Eastbourne Reymar and wanted to say a genuine thank you. From the moment we arrived, Nick made us feel welcome. He checked us in, shared helpful local knowledge, and clearly cares about every guest’s experience. That level of attention stood out straight away. The room was spotless and very comfortable. The small touches made a big difference. Tea, coffee, and water were all provided, and everything felt thoughtfully prepared. We also loved the recreational area. It was a great space to relax, with games and useful local information. Breakfast was a real highlight. One of the best we have had. There was a wide choice, with both buffet options and a freshly cooked breakfast. Everything was well organised and high quality. The rest of the staff were also incredibly friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. For the price, this place offers outstanding value compared to other options in Eastbourne. We would happily stay again and highly recommend it. Thank you for a fantastic stay.
Our host was very welcoming. The breakfast was very good - excellent poached eggs. Shower was hot and bed was comfy.
Convenient location,friendly staff,clean and comfortable. Fantastic value for money.
All good.
Nothing to report. The experience was marred from the very beginning. Despite having a confirmed booking and arriving late due to unavoidable circumstances, we were refused check-in altogether with no alternative arrangements offered.
The manager was rude, condescending, and unwilling to find any practical solution, leaving us stranded and forced to pay for last-minute accommodation elsewhere. In contrast to standard hospitality practices where late arrivals are usually managed with flexibility, this experience was unnecessarily stressful and disappointing—proceed with caution if your arrival time may be delayed.
Nice staff and good breakfast. Room and especially the bathroom were smaller than expected
As above
L'accueil. Literie confortable. Chambre vue sur mer. Parking gratuit
The location to the seafront
Our room was at the front by the front door, people made lots of noise coming in and out late at night. This also wasn’t the room we had on our booking confirmation
Excellent breakfast included and the location was perfect, back enough to be quiet and still right on the sea front.
Decor and curtains a little tired but everything was clean
clean, queit
all was brill
Friendly welcome, relaxed atmosphere
Excellent choice and Nick was extremely helpful
Nothing
We had a good night's sleep, the area around the hotel was very quiet. There was a good choice for breakfast, and the cooked breakfast was excellent. The staff were friendly and made us feel very welcome. There is a bus stop very near the hotel, making it easy to travel locally and to get a connections. I will stay there again next time I'm in Eastbourne.
There is only street parking, which is free near the hotel.
Extremely welcoming hosts! Provided a wonderful breakfast - all included :) Sea view & the room had everything needed. Could walk to shops as well.
Bed was small, but suited the room size.
This was my second stay at Reymar and I will stay again. It is excellent value for money and the staff are really friendly and go out of their way to be helpful. The accommodation is comfortable and spotlessly clean.
Position and breakfast excellent
Parking on street, had to park a distance from hotel!
Nick was so kind and helpful. He located me on the ground floor and even asked the carpet cleaner to do my area later as I had mentioned I’m not good in the morning. The property is in an ideal position near the sea, pier, and town but has free parking outside. The room was very comfortable with en-suite, a radiator you can turn up and down, and windows that open for fresh air. Plenty of tea and coffee are provided and you can choose if the room is serviced, or left alone. I don’t eat breakfast so can’t say, but I bet they go out of their way to make it perfect for their guests.
There was nothing to dislike about this property.
Nice clean room. Exceptional breakfast. Very friendly and helpful staff. Super location very close to beach and prom and the cafes etc, but also convenient for town centre. Will stay again when visiting.
On street parking and when I came back late I had to drive round for a bit to find a space. Not too much of a problem for me, but could be difficult if you have mobility restrictions.
Loved the location. Nice walk into town
Bathroom was just a bit too small
Greta Location and good value. I only stayed for one night, but generally I think it's a good place for short stays near to the beach.
I wasn't expecting too much as the price of the room was very good. That said, my window looked out onto next door's brick wall.
Excellent
It was all good
The host and staff were friendly and the hotel breakfast was good . Nick was very attentive to guests queries and overall he is a great host . The facilities were good and even though my room was small it was still well equipped .Housekeeping was good overall , but could be improved . The hotel location is great and the town centre is easily accessible. Overall I had a pleasant stay . Thank you. Looking forward to staying with you again in the future .
Housekeeping was good , but could be improved .
Our stay was very nice goid breakfast lost of chose
Endroit très sympas le patron Nick est très attentif
Lit serais plus large ce serais nettement mieux
Location and accommodating nature
Good value accommodation, particularly as a full breakfast was included. Very close to the sea front and quiet location but only a 15 minute walk to the main shopping area. I don't eat meat so pleased that Nick could provide me with some veg sausages to go with the rest of my cooked breakfast. He was also understanding when I claimed I had lost my electric toothbrush only for me to find it in my case after he had gone to some trouble to look for it.
Bearing in mind the good value of the accommodation I don't have any dislikes
