Amazing Stay!
helpful staffgreat restaurantcomfortable roomdark bathroom
The staff provided excellent service throughout my visit. The hotel restaurant offered really good meals. My room had quirky designs and a well-stocked minibar. The location made trips to Brighton easy. The hotel also served as a great starting point for walks.
The room lacked ventilation, and the window did not open. It made the bathroom very dark.
Dining
10/10
The restaurant serves very good food. Every order was beautifully cooked and presented. The staff ensured all eight of our party received the correct meals simultaneously, so it was a great dining experience with fantastic service.
Location
9/10
The location offers convenient access to both coastal towns and the scenic South Downs. It provided an excellent base for exploring the surrounding areas. Many local wines and beers are available, highlighting the region.
Facilities
9/10
The room featured interesting furnishings and a very comfortable, large bed. It included a sofa and a mini bar. A good-sized shower provided a gentle wake-up in the well-lit bathroom.
