A gem.

We booked this hotel as a stay for the night after atrending a black tie event. Well, the event was cancelled but i thought that we may as well keep the room anyway. One of my better decisions. From arrival, the atmosphere was friendly, the Harveys bitter well kept and the evening meal was great. Steak & Venison pie for me and Gammon steak fir my fiancé, with a side dish of topped toasted potatoes. The room was clean and spacious, and we found a welcome note from Sarah (the maid) welcoming us. Nice personal touch. Breakfast was also great. Perhaps the only slight nighle was that the duvet was possibly a little small. Butt maybe i'm just a closet duvet hog. All in all, we can thoroughly recommend this gem of an Inn.

Faultless

An absolutely fabulous stay. Spacious room with comfortable bed. Cleanliness was perfect in both room and bathroom. The bathroom itself was stylish with a lovely shower. Breakfast was ample and very very tasty. Good quality TV, and room service was available with meals from the bar I noticed (I did not need this service). Even though on a main road the noise was minimal so assume there was good double glazing. There was some noise with music from the downstairs bar but this finished at a reasonable hour. For the price the Downs Hotel in my eyes is a little gem.

The Good: Rooms are impeccably clean, stylish, roomy and comfortable Very comfy bed with beautiful bed linen High quality shampoo and shower gel provided Nespresso machine in the room Onsite parking It’s on a busy junction but soundproofing is excellent Great location for walking on South Downs. Regular buses go to Brighton centre (15 minute journey) or 1 hour walk Breakfast included is decent and cooked to order. Restaurant on site for evening meal. Fish and Chip shop close by is an excellent option too. Friendly staff. The Bad: The in-room internet service provider blocks all ‘adult’ websites - even for adults! The milk provided with the tea-making equipment in the room is full-fat (dairy). This is very strange in 2024 and in Brighton in particular. A better option would be for dairy milk to be semi-skimmed and there also to be oat milk sachets
