Disappointed

The Hotel was in a good location but further from the town of Brighton then we were led to believe. Check in was ok, on street parking was good and reasonably priced. The room was up 4 flights of stairs no lift not ideal . The room was adequate,dated and lacked modern facilities, tea coffee etc was available but not topped up on the second night so unable to have a morning drink. And on to the most Disappointing Breakfast very poor quality certainly not what I would of expected from a so called 5 star breakfast ( barely 2 star in my mind) This did put a massive downer on our weekend. Probably the most disappointing place I’ve stayed in and certainly very expensive for what we got,

Parking definitely not included.

This hotel is well located and fairly tidy, but a few little things let it down. Worst being that I filtered hotels with parking included. When I arrived I was disappointed to discover that the hotel didn’t have parking. I had to find a space on the very busy street and pay a parking charge for it. Windows looked like they had never been cleaned. Bathroom was very cramped and had one shelf that was above the toilet. Be very careful with that.

Convenient for us to walk to County Cricket ground to support Somerset and into Brighton. Good all round experience, though we felt breakfast let it down a little. Not as expected especially as it was "Award Winning". Only one flavour of juice on offer, pastries had to be asked for and our cooked food, on the first morning, was not very hot. Second day, slightly better. Staff attentive and very pleasant.

Well placed, with pleasant rooms.

Clean, airy and spacious room, but a bit chilly during the day as no heating until evening. Well placed for seafront and a plethora of restaurants offering food from around the world. Hotel boasts a ‘five star breakfast’ but we found this was disappointing with little choice of cereal, no yoghurts or pastries, very limited toast and somewhat patchy service if you wanted more of something.

Nice historic property that is walkable to Brighton promenade. Good bus service as well. Friendly, accommodating staff. Bed a bit firm, but better than too soft. Huge room. Toilet didn’t flush very well and shower water pressure was low. Overall, a good value and we enjoyed it.

Luxuries and Freedom

The luxury you experience in this place cannot be found even in a 5-star hotel. It was a very quiet place, a haven of freedom. It felt like home. The garden was amazing.
