It wasn’t the most modern of hotels but it was great value in a brilliant location, on the seafront & by the pier. We had a sea view and despite reviews of noise, we were there Saturday & Sunday night and it was quiet. The staff were pleasant and accommodating. The room was clean, warm & comfortable. Would come again thank you.

Last minute booking at 10pm and arrived 1 hour 30 minutes later, check in was seamless as always, room very clean well stocked with tea and coffee and a good sized TV. Staff are always friendly and helpful in the small hours. Hotel is in a prime location, right on the seafront in the heart of Kemptown but on a quiet side street so it is also markedly peaceful. This was the best last minute deal and value for money by a country mile. I will definitely be staying here again.

Absolutely fabulous view from the sea view balcony room. Very friendly reception staff, amazing location right by the Sealife Centre. Unfortunately the room was below par. The shower randomly 'ran out of water' and there was no temperature control so it remained boiling hot; the kettle
