gute lage, um stadt und strand zu erkunden
The location is excellent, being within walking distance of the railway station and in the heart of the city. The facility for cycle parking was convenient, but please put a roof on it so that bicycles stay dry!
The door closers need adjusting as they slam. Slamming doors are an unnecessary annoyance. This is a simple piece of work for a maintenance person to rectify.
Difficult to find the breakfast room 🤣
Beliggenheden var super. Rent, enkelt som forventet.
Der er meget lydt. Morgenmaden er ikke værd at tage med
staff were kind and friendly, both reception and breakfast room staff.
Hotel is clearly being used by social services, felt quite sketchy at times around the inside and outside of the hotel. Room was clean, but very basic. Frankly would have got a better standard and deal at a cheaper hotel chain for example. No Hotel bar. Hotel feels more like a hostel than a hotel. Staff were good, but shant book again. Breakfast food quality was generally poor-
It had a fridge which is always super handy and was comfy!
Water pressure for the shower wasn’t great
Location. Friendly staff
The room was bare and extremely basic. The mattress was springy and very uncomfortable.
Ruime kamer
Ontbijt, kleine badkamer
Was very impressed, wasn't expecting much as was very reasonable price d, breakfast was much better than expected
Nothing
It was clean and in good central place
Breakfast was a little disappointing as was the early wake up 3am of very loud music. Rooms are basic but adequate
Good location
Poor breakfast, very basic room
Good value for money, excellent breakfast
Fairly basic room but it was large! Great location, super central to everything you need in Brighton and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Very quiet room considering how central it was
Some of the fittings looked a bit tired (mismatched wooden flooring and could do with a fresh paint job). Some extra lighting would be nice as it was a bit dark in there.
I like th4 location
The price! Being told you dont get breakfast and its £12 to have it. I laughed its not like a top breakfast where you can choose what you want ie sourdough toast with roasted tomatoes etc which it what I had else where. Also I have a disability and I was situated on the 3rd floor, and Ii have a fear of lifts. How is that making a hotel accessible, it isnt. Disabled residents should be on the grouns floor.
Léon a la réception est le meilleur staff. Il était toujours là pour tout le monde Les filles réception sont inutiles elles ne savent jamais rien ne sourrie jamais La directrice est plutôt froide ne fait de sentiment ne ressens rien parce qu elle dit c un business mais croire en les gens c est aussi une qualité dans l hôtellerie

ottimo ima reception!
bagno con ventola rumorosa, poca luce nella stanza
Prima plek vlakbij een groot aantal restaurants
La posizione è abbastanza comoda e ci si può muovere a piedi.
La stanza piccola con carente pulizia ed affaccio seminterrato su un parcheggio.
Not happy with overall stay
Disliked the fact my wife got trapped in bathroom because handle did not work, lack of pillows and fan in room noisy but not working
It was very clean and nice and central. Most things were a 15 minute walk away.
Because the hotel is also student accommodation there was a lot, and I mean A LOT, of noise in the hallways. It kept me awake for multiple hours.
Spacious, bright and very clean room. Very good value for money
Gute Lage, sehr sauber, perfektes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis . Nettes Personal. Öffentliche Motorrad-Parkplätze direkt um die Ecke (50m)
Wenig ansprechendes Ambiente
Breakfast is actually pretty good and communication with staff via WhatsApp was great
Rooms are extremely basic, beds squeak and the white roller blinds with gaps either side, simply illuminate the room the moment the sun comes up, they’re utterly pointless. Don’t recommend if you like a dark room
Great location near shops bar and beach.Hotel staff very friendly and they do a good breakfast
Brilliant a lovely stay thank you
N/a
The building has an attractive facade!
Our room 302 was situated above 4 very noisy fans which were going virtually all night long and when we did eventually fall asleep, kept waking up me and my daughter throughout the night - there was no let up! It was too hot in the room to close the windows!
Perfect location with very helpful staff
Location right in the middle of the main shops which is handy
Only given one pillow each, beds were uncomfortable and dust across surfaces
Location was excellent for our stay Breakfast was ok for what we paid
For what we paid the hotel was what we expected & perfect for a short stay if you dont want all the bells & whistles
Close to the 360 at the beach so always easy to find !
Communal areas not good - only suitable for waiting for your luggage.
Good location plus motorcycle parking opp and in side street
Room was clean but was a bit like a prison cell ...plus there was a lot of shouting and noise in the night ..rows and shouting
Clean and comfy
Breakfast
Friendly staff especially for pride
Central, lots of stores and restaurants around the hotell. Short walking distance, approximately 10 minutes from everything. Fridge in the room. Clean bed and bathroom.
The floors in my room were sticky. I don't think it's been cleaned properly for a while, as I saw the cleaning staff only used a vacuum. No mop or anything in sight. If i removed my shoes, my socks were very dirty underneath after a short time. The door handle to the bathroom came off. Breakfast was very bland. Toast, butter, jam, scrambled eggs, bacon and beans. Juice, tea and a coffee machine. That was it, I expected a little bit more. Some fruit or vegetables would have been nice. The hallway was very noisy in the morning with slamming doors and cleaning staff banging their trolley around.
Super friendly staff, ideal location ,comfortable and clean and lovely breakfast too.
Staff were very helpful
Breakfast was very good, scrambled egg and bacon were exceptional, often watery or rubbery (respectively) at other places.
no aircon, but for the price hey-ho. thankfully the heatwave was over, so good fresh air from the windows and i slept well. also car parks in the vicinity are super expensive.
Location
No tea making facilities & no telly
A decent breakfast
The smell of bleach in the room, while the room remained dirty. Only one chair in a double room. Very thin walls, we could hear the people next door in the toilet.
The location and friendly staff
The mattress was to soft and springy, a lot of noise from outside
The location, security, the price and the staff. Breakfast was also very good
The loud bang at 3am that sounded like someone was coming thru the ceiling. Noisy on floor above
No variation food no test
Boel eggs salad and tomatoes
Hotels location is fantastic for a stay in Brighton. Staff are friendly and helpful. Room was clean.
Location, price
Curtain blinds don’t fully cover early morning light
Great location, surrounding by many shops and everything needed on the door step!
It was extremely hot on the 2nd floor where our room was located, there was a mini fan in the room which did not help at all, me and my husband was really struggling to sleep and stay in the room throughout the day and night.
Rooms were spacious and clean
No Aircon, just a tiny fan that didn't do anything. The rooms felt like the heating was on full
Great location in between Brighton and Hove - a few minutes from the shops and the beach
Everything was great - not sure if the hotel is also accommodation for a charity but there were a few odd people about but this is Brighton after all
It was centre
It lacked of a nice vibe. It was just a room but the design is not nice. The room was too hot at night .
Very clean
Fan in the room could have been better as it was so hot
Limpio, cómodo, buen desayuno
Location only
Uncomfortable bed, hot room, no air con, noisy outside and could hear a generator running all night. We brought back bed bugs.

Location
Hot room
The team on reception were all super friendly. Anyone we interacted with was nice.
There was no AC and the window barely opened, it was boiling hot! The TV was also so far from the bed when considering the size of it it was too small. The room itself just felt a little bit bare and depressing. Didn’t really look like the images online.
Location Breakfast adequate
Although room was clean, smell of cleaning products overpowering, fan fell to bits as soon tried to plug in , thick dust everywhere from that all over floor & husband's clothes. Once able to get it to work , unstable, fell twice more & no real power to fan. . double room but only one bedside table & light , so one guest had to use chair and unable to read in bed Mattress had no firmness & uncomfortable Cafe very basic , tables not set, more like a school canteen
Room ok but as it was August pride i felt it was slightly overpriced
Cheaper price
Staff and location were great,
Hairs left on floor in room+bathroom, bed wasn’t the comfiest
Good location
Little dated. Bedroom overlooked and no privacy
Nous avons passé 3 jours à Brighton, 2 nuits avec ma fille, au top, rapport qualité prix, personnel RAS, très gentil, accueillant , emplacement idéal, à 10/ 15 mm de la gare, du centre ville , 5 mn du front de mer, une rue à prendre juste en face de l'hôtel. Nous devions rendre la chambre pour 11h, notre train était à 21h, nous avons pu laisser nos bagages pour la journée, ce qui est bien appréciable. Je recommande cet hôtel sans hésitation, j'y retournai c'est certain.
Great location to the beach and shops with fair price.
Body wash & hand wash wasn’t fill up. And the bed was very soft and can hear the noice.
Personal muy amable y muy bien de precio.
La cama es bastante incómoda, se escucha bastante el exterior y el pasillo, y hacía bastante calor en la habitación.
Nice and clean, staff were lovely and helpful
Very basic, didn’t want to spend much time in there as it was hot and dark
Location, cost
Toilet was disgusting, had to move to another room
Need tv in a room n strong van
Nothing
Central position Friendly staff
The staff were super friendly & the hotel was very clean
The room didn’t have AC
The location is good, and the room was fair for the price paid
We stayed there in the summer peak and there was no air conditioning in the room. It was a pretty restless night
Location
Very poor breakfast. Laundry not changed daily despite asking for it. No shower mats to prevent slipping.
Customer service was really nice, very friendly and kind. Room was ok.
For the price I paid, we was expecting at least a room facing the main road or at least having air con, but there was just a small fan inside, and it was quite hot inside.
Clean comfortable room, great location and shower was hot with great pressure
No tea or coffee making facilities or hair dryer in room
Very friendly staff Very clean room
Central, good staff. Ok breakfast.
Working batteries in the tv remote and very noisy room in the morning as it’s adjacent to the road. Room 120. If I stayed again I would want a room on the upper levels.
Comfortable and clean
Price
easy to find and book in
No TV, limited tea and coffee
Staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming
Mattress was quite hard and uncomfortable
Reception Staff were lovely
No housekeeping and we stayed 4 nights. Breakfast was edible but not good. It seems part of the Hotel is let to the council which means some undesirable looking people, it didn't feel very safe.
Great value, Friendly staff, close to many shops, has a fridge in room and clean and comfortable :)
The shower didn't fit well in the shower holder and had to be balanced to use, when using the fridge make sure to have a spare room card as when I got back it had gone funny due to the electric being off without a card.
Great central location and value for money
Very basic room and facilities
Location OK staff on front very professional
No air conditioning, shower to small , breakfast not brilliant
Centrala läget.
Frukostmatsalen. Kallt, kalt, naket och opersonligt.
Not much good waste of money
Property smell bad inside room they never change towels or linen plus breakfast staff never wash hands clean the floor serve food touch cutlery after someone needs to inspect this place bad hygiene guy sitting people needs to change clothes and hair so messy plus very bad hygiene this place needs inspection for hygiene
Location good and very clean
No television in room and very hot
Henkilökunta, sijainti.
The room was really spacious and it was only a short walk to and from the beach. It was excellent value compared to other hotels in the same area.
Clean rooms. Helpful and friendly staff. Breakfast good.
Good location on the High Street and short walk to the beach. Tasty breakfast and helpful staff.
No AC in the room but there was a desk fan provided in the room.
Staff were incredibly helpful and responsive. Room was clean and ideal location
Nothing happy with this property. Was due to stay for three nights, left after one night
Was not particularly clean and felt unsafe. On checking reviews on other sites this seems to be a common theme
Great location near shops bars restaurants.Staff very helpful and friendly,and good breakfast on offer

N/A
Cuando nos dieron la habitación estaba limpia y ordenada, no faltaba nada. Correcto. El trato de la recepción es agradable y se preocupan por preguntarte si todo está bien. La ubicación muy buena.
La cama no era cómoda, la cortina no es suficiente para que no deje entrar el sol a las seis de la mañana, nos quedamos dos noches y no hicieron la habitación (se supone que es un hotel), desayuno insuficiente y no reponían, había que indicarles que faltaban tazas para servirnos el café, pan, poca variedad. El precio que pagamos no corresponde al servicio que se da. Tienen que mejorar.
Good location, breakfast and comfortable.
Dirty bedroom floor.
I liked this hotel. It was only 400 metres from the beach. My room was clean and quite big. The wooden floor felt nice cool in the hot weather. A ventilator and small fridge were very useful. The staff was friendly. They offered full English breakfast in the cafe and it was delicious. I would love to stay again in this hotel. Many thanks!
The cafe was the only place were was an air conditioner and to come from the rooms with normal temperature, the cafe felt really very cold and uncomfortable. Next morning I put my light jacket on and this way felt much better. Although breakfast was good, I would recommend to offer a few slices of cheese and/or ham to cover the bread. There was only jam available, but this you have afterwards.
Wir hatten die Möglichkeit, unsere Fahrräder sicher unterzustellen. Das war prima.
Nichts anzumerken.
Only a short walk from the train station staff were helpful and friendly & the breakfast was very good cooked fresh daily
Air con would’ve helped but did supply a fan
Handy for beach shops and restaurants.
Nothing
Nice and quite
