Room was clean
No phone signal....no headboard on single bed...creaky floor...no lock on toilet door....heard boiler all night...no soundproof...reception missing in action....4 coathangers for 3 people....wont go back
Reception staff were welcoming and helpful. The hotel and room were very clean and comfortable. The single bed is a decent size.
The location is not my favourite but this hotel more than makes up for that.
Hot tub, breakfast,
N/a.
Central location
It was all good
Location, friendly and welcoming Receptionist.
Very dirty carpet throughout the property and room. Certainly did not look like it had been vacuumed for a long while, sadly it made the place feel “grubby”. The rest however was clean (bathroom and bedding).
Good location with an oblique view of the sea. Excellent breakfast including non-meat options and fresh toast. Plus essential marmalade. Welcoming and helpful staff at reception and breakfast. A big fan was provided in the room. Good step-in shower.
I was prevented from sleeping for a little while as I could hear the television from another room and footsteps of other guests walking about. Once quiet, though, all was fine and a good sleep was enjoyed.
Location and the room, staff was friendly and breakfast was lovely

Great location with a beautiful sea view. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Overall, a very pleasant stay and I would happily recommend this place.
The room was a little cold, but the staff kindly provided a portable heater, which was very helpful
Room very modern. Excellent breakfast
Room was only partially cleaned first day & not at all on second.. very a labelled luxury hotel this is not what I expected. We told reception on second day at 7pm but when we returned at 11pm Room still not cleaned
We got an upgrade, that was nice. Water supplied for tea. That was pleasant. The put our bags in the room. We had a view of the ocean and a little balcony. It was a large room. It had a small fridge.
No air conditioning, no elevator. The mattress was hard. Some people like a hard mattress but it was too hard for me.
Christina was very helpful as my husband is diabetic and was on crutches when we arrived. A mini fridge was placed in the compact room and he only had to go up one staircase,she even carried his overnight bag upstairs for us. All the staff were helpful in the sister hotel where breakfast was served.
No
La localisation est vraiment idéale et nous avons trouvé la chambre confortable.
L’escalier pour arriver à la chambre est vraiment pentu et peu adapté pour les enfants alors que nous étions dans une suite familiale
Clean friendly staff
Nothing
Breakfast in the other hotel very nice
Standard of the room not great. Boiling hot. Needs refurbishment.
fantastic location and free room upgrade
Great location, very clean, friendly staff and a very good breakfast in a nice breakfast room.
That it had a private bathroom and fan in the room. Shower was great. Loved the breakfast option. Definitely worth it!
It felt quite small and the bed also had a dent in it so wasn’t too comfortable. It was fine for the 2 nights.
Breakfast was 10/10. Bed was very comfortable
We had 2 rooms. And basically we were in 2 buildings as they closed the doors at 9 pm. So had to meet up outside.
Clean
Noisy was about the front door plus no staff about
Location was great. The room was large, the pillows were good and we weren't expecting an outdoor area, so that was a bonus!
We could hear all of the water running down from the above rooms in the pipes outside the window, toilets flushing, baths, showers etc. The mattresses were a bit hard. The outside area was a bonus, but was a bit grubby. It could of been good to know beforehand that we'd have to walk afew doors down for breakfast....in the rain. Service level could have been slightly more personable.
Close to the sea.
Badly located small room (Hove) in the cellar. No air conditioning. Very small double bed. No fan in the bathroom. If you book breakfast, this is served at another guest house and not at this property. The room was underneath the ground floor, directly below the front door with the window facing the street. The front door was constantly being banged shut, making the room shake and waking us up. There was a constant stream of people walking past the window, which we had to keep open because the room was very hot, It was very noisy. It was the temperature of the room that caused the most discomfort. Because there was no fan in the bathroom the room filled with steam and got even hotter than it already was. There was an electric humidifier in the room but when we turned this on it blew out hot air which is the last thing you want when you’re trying to cool the room down. There was also a fan in the room but again this just moved the hot air around . We had a very uncomfortable couple of days at the Sea Spray hotel. We would not return and DO NOT recommend this place.
The location is perfect for being g near seafront. Also shops and restaurants within 5 minutes walk. The room itself was lovely and clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. We paid for breakfast also which was delicious. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you.
It's not that I didn't like, , but we had to walk less than a minute to another hotel for our breakfast.. The hotel did inform me of this and that hotel was just as lovely, staff just as friendly and as I said typical buffet breakfast but plenty and delicious. Thank you.
The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent.
Bathroom.needs updating and minor repairs.
Es war schön eingerichtet, hatte eine gute Lage,...
Wir hatten das Zimmer im Keller, das Internet und Netz war nicht so gut, ansonsten hatten wir garnichts auszusetzen.
Good location. Portable air con unit in the room. Powerful shower.
Very uncomfortable bed. Sink and shower had brown stains. Missing room amenities. Small towels. Staff were absent throughout the entire stay except check in. Quite expensive for what was assumed to be a luxury hotel stay.
Booking in and a nice big clean bedroom
All good
Spotlessly clean, friendly staff and very close to sea with all its amenities
Loved everything
Clean ,nice location Close to shops pubs Nice sea views
Very homely, very spacious, very nice bed and pillows, good temperature inside
Marks in the bath tub from assuming paint work can make it look dirty on first glance!
La douche!!!
La situation de la chambre (dite "suite") au sous-sol sur la rue et au soleil sans climatisation.
Softer beds, they were very firm.
The facilities, fresh water and towels. The high standard cleansiness of the rooms and hotel in general.
Breakfast was very good
Single room was not able to be viewed before booking by that time it was too late as I booked no refund when to room was displayed after booking it was not like the other rooms shown no aircon and pokey
Nice clean room with good facilities and 10 minutes walk into town centre and restaurants No AC but fan in cupboard.
No hot water for a shower was big disappointment. Parking available outside the location if you can find a spot - I couldn't and had to walk 10 minutes
Die Lager ist super, kurzer weg zum Pier auch alles andere war sehr Zentral. Das Frühstück war im Nebengebäude und war sehr fein und vielfalltig. Die Betten waren bequem, das Bad renoviert, für ein Kellerzimmer sehr angehm.
La habitación era espaciosa y con vistas al mar. La ubicación era estupenda, podías ir a todas partes andando.
No tuve ningún problema.
Great location and in pretty old building.
Seemed slightly impersonal - like a room in a shared house rather than a hotel. The air conditioning unit was not very effective.
Staff were all exceptionally friendly. The room was lovely, very spacious and great to have the balcony to sit out on. The fridge and fan were very much appreciated.
Nothing, would definitely go back.
Everything was spot on! Same as with the Charm boutique hotel.
Great,clean hotel,room was tidy and very spacious. Staff very welcoming.Amzing breakfast, good quality and good choice of food. Excellent location,quiet,sea nearby.
The room size was fab nice and big with a good shower. Fans and AC provided for heat and a comfy bed.
Nothing
La posizione è molto comoda per muoversi in città. Staff gentile
Buona la colazione ma modesto l'assortimento per i dolci. Camera molto calda senza aria condizionata e in camera mancava un appoggio per la valigia .
Staff able to accommodate my requests
Before they provided dressing gowns for the hot tub but this time round there where non
Second time staying here. Staff are helpful and friendly. Penthouse is lovely and big, comfortable . Jacuzzi bath a bonus. Can't wait to come back. Lovely touch was flower petals on the bed and a note wishing us a happy anniversary.
Bath towels are quite small. Extra touches as its the penhouse could be bath robes.
Lage
Parkplatz für einen Tag bis 15:00Uhr bezahlt aber trotzdem strafe bekommen weil wegen Parade ab 06:00 Uhr gesperrt war(scheinbar kurzfristig geändert/entschieden) also doppelt bezahlt:(
We loved the central yet quiet location. The staff were so so friendly and helpful at all times. Fresh filtered water in the room. Room was well equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay
Minor point would be no full length mirror but not a major issue
The location and friendly staff
The room I had was on the small side but not too small and possibly reasonable for Brighton (I have had smaller)
Lovely location, very beautiful boutique hotel. Stones throw to the beach and little cafes and supermarket
The location was great.
We booked with friends, paid similar prices and their rooms were double the size of ours. The rooms were very hot. Breakfast was a late start so we were up and out before and we asked if we could get a takeaway breakfast but there was only a bit of fruit available.
Hele toffe kamer en veel oog voor detail. Heel toffe gastheer bij het ontbijt in the Charm (zusterhotel twee huizen verder)

Clean, modern, great location, friendly staff, good value highly recommend
We were on the top floor which was really hot in the room but they did supply air con and a fan.
Beautiful view of the sea. Deceptively small outside but the room was big and well proportioned inside. Generous toiletries and tea/coffee facilities. Portable AC and a powerful fan helped with the 2026 heatwaves. Staff were helpful with the luggage store and all other requests. The rooms were close together yet absolutely no noise and no disturbance. The only things keeping us awake were the screaming gulls!
The staff was incredibly welcoming. The space felt clean and safe, and the breakfast had so many wonderful options to choose from!
The location is excellent for reaching the beach and also the lively pedestrian streets. The bed was very comfortable. There was a fan in the room. There was also a water filter. We were told that we were upgraded but I am not sure aboud the upgrade. Possibly a room with a balcony with a sea view. So it was pleasant. The tea and coffee arrangement at the lobby was exquisite!
The balcony was too narrow to sit comfortably but still pleasant. The fan was too noisy. The bathroom was so narrow that you could not wash your face without your bum opening the door!
Great location for pier and walking to the lanes. Spacious room with separate room and bed for daughter. Large bathroom with access to small courtyard.
Good location though a little way out of centre. Staff were friendly enough though at check-in instructions were not clear around breakfast arrangements and luggage facilities.
The duvet needs changing as very stained! We only removed from cover as was humid.
Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, und der Blick auf den Brighton Pier aus dem Bett war super :)
Es war leider sehr warm in dem Zimmer. Wenn man alle Balkontüren geöffnet hat, kam zwar frische Luft rein, aber auch der Stadt-Lärm :) eine Klimaanlage wäre super!
Location, room, staff, food & cleansiness
That we couldn't stay longer
It felt homely, it was spotlessly clean and comfortable
My only reason for giving it 9 not 10, I was in the Boudoir room. In the main room you couldn’t close the blackout curtains, it did have shutters but I like the room really dark when I sleep.
Bed comfy, shower good..
Booked a Magnificent sea view, with a description like that expected it to be on the sea front. No side sea view, so the description wasn’t correct. Could hear people upstairs and in the rooms adjacent. Could hear everyone’s shower too. Noisy being near the park too. We were given an air conditioner unit, didn’t work and the back tubing was taped to the unit. Made the room hotter.
bed very comfortable
no AC
Close to front and good location for beach , pier etc Clean room small space however this was an acceptable for what we paid
Breakfast excellent , and friendly staff
Zimmer im Keller schwierig zu erreichen. Platzangebot insbesondere für Klamotten im Familienzimmer
Keller, kein Personal bis auf Receptionistin,
Beliggenheten , frokosten, rommet
Ikke aircondition
Le petit déjeuner était excellent, à base de produits frais et de qualité . Nous avons été surclassées et avons bénéficié d‘une plus grande chambre . L’hôtel est bien situé, pas très loin du centre et près d’une rue avec de nombreux restaurants. Le personnel est très gentil .
Le stationnement est très compliqué. Ce n’est pas forcément évident de pouvoir stationner près de l’hôtel pour décharger les bagages et obtenir le papier pour le stationnement . Et ensuite, il faut trouver une place dans les rues adjacentes .
Clean & Freindly
The room we got was far to small it was tiny for the price we paid it was up four flights of stairs,you should ask your customers there age as there is no lift were we were. Breakfast was good a nice choice of food. No in house manager about at any time. Due to the size of the room allocated to us and the price we paid for it I would not stay here
AS ABOVE THE ROOM. THE ROOM WAS A SMALL BOX ROOM
Comfortable bed. Spacious room. Easy out of hours access.
Room needs a refresh, shower so tiny with poor water pressure. Soundproofing needs work as I could hear rooms next door and upstairs walking around, slamming doors. The receptionist was on the phone for 10 minutes when I arrived as it was only one person on duty.
The room was amazing and very spacious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good. You had avery varied selection and the staff were excellent.
Nothing. All very good. The location was great for all the attractions.
Wysoki standard pokoju, dobra lokalizacja, bardzo miła obsluga oraz smaczne śniadania. Warto się tam zatrzymać!
Superb breakfast and delightful breakfast room; very comfortable bed, excellent bathroom, very professional and friendly staff.
Mooi gebouw en handige locatie, heel vriendelijk personeel
Het ontbijt zag er ruim uit, maar vers brood ontbrak
Дуже зручна локація: й набережна й інфраструктура. Номер чистий, все необхідне в наявності. До номера ведуть сходи - наче з історії о Гарі Поттер😊. Дуже смачний сніданок🍱 Є маленька тераса для кави
Цокольне приміщення , бракує кондиціювання повітря . Не критично
Deilig frokost. Utmerket beliggenhet
La posizione è molto comoda per raggiungere il lungomare
Il personale è presente solo alla colazione
Great location
Bed a little too firm for my liking…but you cannot please everyone. Others may appreciate this good mattress.
The hotel was just 5 minutes from the beach, shops & bars if you want quick pint 👍
There was nothing not to like
Beautiful boutique hotel perfectly located
Nothing
Very clean and spacious room with lots of tea and coffee and a fridge. Nice bathroom and a sea view. Very nice decor
It was a bit hot as the weather was very hot
The New York Penthouse room was stunning! So clean and spacious.
Nothing, everything was great.
Comfortable and well appointed room. So pleased to have a really efficient fan on what was the hottest night of the year. Excellent breakfast.
Tricky to unload luggage on a busy single track road. Parking voucher does not apply to spaces immediately outside hotel.
The bed was comfy, breakfast was excellent and location was good.
The toilet did not work.
Prima bed. Bij aankomst bleek wifi heel slecht en de koelkast werkte niet; dit werd de volgende ochtend prima hersteld!
Geen lift en moesten veel trappen op en geen mengkranen op de badkamer.
De kamer was keurig schoon net als de badkamer. Het ontbijt was bij de buren en was oké. Heerlijke bedden!!
Het vinden naar van een parkeerplaats was een uitdaging . Tip reserveer deze via een parkeerapp ruimt tevoren
Breakfast was in a neighbouring hotel and pretty good
Most hot food not freshly cooked
Very nice room. Very friendly and helpful staff. Within walking distance of the beach. Good breakfast.
No parking, had to drive a round town for an hour and a half trying to find a parking spot.
L'accueil, le confort de la chambre, le breakfast. La situation géographique près du centre
Good location clean room
No air conditioning and no one to talk to at departure
very good location & friendly people with a lovely spacious shower
La ubicación
La limpieza fue mala, no había armarios para guardar ropa, en la terraza habían habitaciones con máquinas ruidosas.
Well equipped bathroom and super shower. Comfortable and quiet
Beautiful hotel ,super room in the penthouse. Comfy beds ,great bathroom and an excellent breakfast at the Charm up the road.
The shower was quite difficult to operate and I think it had been fitted upside down.
Second time staying here in the garden room … spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable The hot tub is an added treat Loved the new water dispenser
No dressing gowns which are normally supplied … need a larger mat at the door for when you’re coming out of the hot tub to stop bringing water into the room… This is me just being fussy
The room was clean and a great space. Having the child bed outside of the main bedroom was good. Water machine was a nice touch. Breakfast at the sister hotel was really good. Well cooked and a good choice of food. Staff friendly and helpful.
Not being able to pull the curtains across in the main bedroom was really annoying as it meant the room was really light and we had to wear eye masks. More frustrating as the curtains are there but not the rail!
Everything was great. The staff was very nice and helpful about any asked question, the service provided was great with daily change of cups and water refills. The room was great (we had the Venitian Room) with a great space to mov and enjoy the place, but also a large balcony with a seaview. The room was tidy and neat, TV services were excellent and the bathroom was great as well. The location was super, basically on the seafront near the pier and a few minutes walk from the tower and the Royal Pavilion, as well as other services such as stores and buses.
The hotel was superb, the receptionist was welcoming, the room was incredibly clean and spotless, we will certainly arrange for another holiday very soon and hope their will be vacancies
La struttura a due passi dal mare . Ottimo direi Tenuto molto pulito e le poche persone incontrate era cordiali e disponibili nulla da dire al riguardo
Questo hotel gestito da un altro hotel , che penso non abbia personale per coprire i turni di entrambi credo . Nell’hotel non c’è quasi mai nessuno . Per il check out devi andare all altro hotel . E se non c’è nessuno anche per il check in devi andare all altro hotel
Gute Lage. Möglichkeit den Koffer vor dem „Check in „ aufbewahren zu lassen. Wasserbehälter mit Filter. Gute Pflegeprodukte. Gutes Frühstück. Möglichkeit draußen frühstücken zu können. Teezimmer.
Einfaches Rührei. Keine Information, dass man auch Eier anders bekommen kann. Wenige Vegane Optionen. Nach dem Wochenende waren die Tische draußen nicht vor Frühstücksbeginn eingedeckt, daher musste man länger auf den Tisch und das Personal warten. Kein Räucherlachs. (Das Foto vom Frühstück sollte daher entfernt werden, da es falsche Hoffnungen weckt!) Das Zimmer im Dach ist im Sommer zu heiß, da reichte auch kein Ventilator.
