Ahmed · GB · 2026-07-25

Fantastic location, but the hotel feels tired and doesn´t meet the standard expected of a 4-star

5.0

Excellent seafront location within walking distance of the town centre. Despite the busy road outside, the room was quieter than expected, which we really appreciated.

Unfortunately, the hotel did not meet our expectations of a 4-star property. Breakfast was disappointing, with a limited selection and unnecessary confusion regarding the breakfast charges. We also noticed an unusual table setup, with tea cups placed right on the edge/corner of the tables, causing several guests to accidentally knock them onto the floor. The hotel felt dated overall. The wall-to-wall carpets were uneven in places and looked worn, the bathroom had a noticeable damp smell, and features such as separate hot and cold taps and a pull cord for the bathroom light made the room feel outdated. Overall, the standard of the rooms and facilities was significantly lower than we had expected from a hotel of this rating.

Sleepless in Eastbourne

Categorically the worst night’s attempted sleep in any hotel I have ever stayed. The ‘mattress’ was older than me.

Welcoming staff, good facilities, sea front location.

Issue with shower riser rail.

Das Hotel ist definitiv keine 4 Sterne wert.

2.0

Das Zimmer war sehr klein, stickig und es war nicht möglich das Fenster richtig zu öffnen. Das Badezimmer ist uralt und ohne komfort wie das ganze Zimmer.
