Hotels near The Brighton Centre in Brighton and Hove

The Legends hotel states that they have a bar and sub terrain night club in the basement, what they don’t state is :- a,  That the night club carries on until 4:00 am and that the ear plugs provided are ineffective. b,  That if you have a so called city view you can only see the rear of the  adjacent properties. c,  You can’t have the windows open for long because of the deafening noise coming from the air conditioning units on the lower roof and the noise from the extractor chimney are the equivalent to booking accommodation in a machine shop. d,  Empty bottles cascading into the wheelie bin through the small hours of the morning. When we complained about this we were told that staff were not supposed to empty bottles before 8:00. The last time we heard bottles was 5:30. e,  Dirty mouldy bathroom. Dust all over the radiator that dirtied the towels when placed on it.  f,  Misrepresentation of rooms size in the hotel description. Ours was definitely not the same as the one pictured. g,  Being fobbed off  by the hotel staff when we asked to see anyone of authority so we could get reimbursed, and who would only be available when we were long gone. So as you can see from our experience and since getting home and reviewing the lower scores left by previous travellers we are not the only couple to have had a less than pleasant experience at the Legends hotel

Good service at hotel,with all landmarks near by and good connectivity as well. Definitely recommended,for everyone looking for a budget hotel at Brighton. Only thing which wasn't quiet good is the room sound proofing,we could here everything from the next doors, couldn't speel well because of this

We stayed in a standard king room. The room looked like it needed a lot of work done (walls, door, windows). The walls are so thin that I could hear the next rooms conversation clearly. The staff are friendly and helpful and breakfast was good but I don’t think i would stay here again. Parking was awful, there are hardly any spaces as most the spaces have pillars in them and they are very small to get in to. They also share the car park with another building so there’s not many spaces available considering how many rooms they have. It was better to park in the nearest car park. I’ve stayed in other holiday inns and they were so clean and lovely rooms to stay in. I just think that this hotel is outdated and needs work.

Can’t fault it. Had dinner the night before - delicious. Breakfast in the morning was huge! Great room. Peaceful surroundings. Effortless customer service.

The service attitude of the hotel is quite good. Although the water in the shower is very small, the heating is sufficient. At the beginning, the heating in one room was not working well. They immediately helped us change the room. It was also very quiet. You can also store your luggage. Thank you very much for the reception

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights at the Kings. We enjoyed every minute. The staff were all friendly, helpful and did everything to make our stay just perfect. Our double room was large,beautifully clean and very comfortable. Breakfasts were great with plenty of choice and in a delightful bright breakfast room. The Kings is ideally located on the seafront. We will definitely be back. Thanks to all the staff at the Kings Hotel.

Location is absolutely great, the sea is direct in front of the hotel. Everything is at walking distance. The staff is very kind and friendly. When we check in, there is a small promotion where we can get free wine, beer or sodas. Cleanliness is great, the room is spotless although there is a little funky smell but not a big issue. As for the amenities, their shampoo and body wash are in bottles fixed to the wall. But their shampoo and body wash are of quality with meroli and bergamot smell which i just fall in love with. They did provide hand wash and lotion in bottles and fixed to the wall as well. No bar soap, no toothpaste, no toothbrush, no shower cap. Their does provide iron, hair dryer and tea/coffee as well as two bottles of water.

Very quiet room very comfortable service is very good

My wife and I recently spent a few nights in Brighton to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, as we aren't comfortable travelling abroad at the moment for obvious reasons. We chose to stay at Q Square as it felt safer than staying at a traditional hotel, and for the most part we're very glad we did. There are lots of things we enjoyed about our visit. The staff were fantastic, the room was spotlessly clean and very well equipped, and the location is hard to beat. We always seemed to be within a 10 minute walk of the hotel which was incredibly convenient, and there are countless restaurants with outdoor dining within a few minutes stroll. We were very happy not to have housekeeping coming into our room each day, and as we chose a sea view one bedroom suite with a balcony we had plenty of fresh air circulating. We felt very safe here, and if that is your primary concern at the moment then I wouldn't hesitate to recommend that you stay here. There were some notable drawbacks though. The room was very warm, and on our first couple of nights we struggled to sleep despite having the windows and balcony door open. We had ceiling fans in both the living area and bedroom, but peculiarly the one in the bedroom was not above the bed - instead it was off to the side, which didn't really help keep us cool as we tried to sleep. The downside to having to keep all the windows open in an attempt to keep cool was that we were disturbed early each morning by loud trucks coming to collect rubbish on the street outside the building, and then again by builders working with power tools on the building next door. Not ideal for a relaxing break. The biggest flaw however was the bathroom light - it's motion activated and incredibly bright, and we both discovered that using the bathroom in the middle of the night left us instantly wide awake and struggling to get back to sleep. There was no way to either switch it off or dim the light, which was incredibly frustrating. This is really something that they should consider fixing. Finally - we drove to the hotel and the only route that we could find took us into a bus and taxi lane to reach the turning for the hotel, so we're now waiting and hoping we don't receive a ticket. There's no parking on site - although they are happy for you to stop outside for the purposes of loading and unloading - and instead they offer discounted rates (£12 per day) at a fairly grim car park a few streets away. If you're visiting after the pandemic has passed I'd strongly recommend taking the train if possible. Overall though, for this particular moment in time we were quite happy with our stay, and it was lovely to have a break and feel comfortable. If your primary concern is finding somewhere clean where you will feel safe, I'm not sure you'll find any better options.
