We stayed for 3 nights as a family with children under the age of 6 and had the best time. The hotel service is exceptional, every need was met. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by the valet who helped us park the car and take our bags. They reserved our space for us with a board for the whole stay. The children received a kids backpack with hat, yo-yo and colouring in. We went straight down to the health club to the indoor pool. When we came out the reception said our room was now ready and collected the keys for us. Our room was a junior suite, it spotless and sizeable with drinks provided on ice and slippers for everyone. In the evening the children could order complimentary milk and cookies which they loved. The outdoor pool was heated and lovely when the sun was out, this was end of may/June. There also was a waiter serving drinks outside. The breakfast was amazing, great selection and the kids loved have every meal served with a cloche and countdown reveal. The added extras on the service make this a wonderful hotel. The positives far outweigh the negatives, I guess it could do with some new carpets and some new upholstery but the charm of the old building supersedes this and although old it was very clean. The bed mattress was ok, quite soft. The sofa bed wasn’t very comfortable but ok for young children. We will be back again!! Thank you
This was my second stay, the first with my granddaughter aged 2 and 10 months. Everything was perfect, I couldn't have asked for more. Everyone was just so friendly and we had a wonderful time. We felt like part of the family and were very much ”at home” staying at the Beach Front. A big thank you from myself and Isabel for making us feel so welcome.
Easy to find and good location however after a hectic day the greeting from the receptionist was less than welcoming. He was on the phone to someone and continued with his conversation without acknowledgement or comment. Asked for my ID to which I replied I didn't know I need to provide one especially as paid directly with travel agent and is not necessary. He told me no I'd you not stay I will cancel booking. I said all I'm saying is it would be nice to know beforehand and should be in the confirmation email. It got heated. Finally got my keys. No lift and on top floor. No offer of assistance. Room adequate and comfortable for price paid. Receptionist came and apologised which was appreciated.
All. In all a comfortable stay but unlikely to return

The room was clean and comfortable and everything worked as it should. Value for money. The hotel is in a good location, for the town and the seafront. with all the bars and cafes. Also a good location for the start of a hike to beachy head through to seven sisters, then back which was the purpose of my stay.
Arrived here July 26 for one week. Reception staff very efficient and well organized, they had us all off our coach and in our rooms within a matter of minutes. We had upgraded to a sea view and premier room and we were not disappointed, we were pleasantly surprised by the refurbished room, which was large, new bathroom, spotlessly clean. Amazing views. The maid changed towels and sheets on a daily basis. Plenty of storage and roomy. No complaints at all here. The breakfast was help yourself to a wide choice of cereals, fruit, juice and yogurts, there was even porridge. Wide choices of cooked breakfast with eggs anyway you like them cooked, of which we had, delicious poached and scrambled. Staff were excellent with prompt service, friendly and courteous. Would just like to give Daniel a special mention, he was very pleasant young man. Evening meals very good with a wide choice, well prepared and tasty food. Very pleasant bar staff, the bar is located at the front of the hotel, which is a great location. The bar staff could not do enough for you, we ordered champagne for our anniversary, the staff put it on ice and served it to our table after dinner, they also served other wines etc. We ate lunch here, and it was delicious freshly made and reasonably priced. We would like to mention Dace who was very hardworking and attentive to all the guests. All the other bar staff were too. The hotel we thought was very well run and all staff were efficient. On the odd occasion that we requested anything it was dealt with in a very quick and professional manner.
Excellent location for the beach, various restaurants, shops and the railway station - with the added bonus of having on-site parking. We were welcomed by the lovely Nickole who was full of smiles and very friendly. She explained the breakfast room, showed us the evening facilities (i.e. if you wanted use of a microwave), and where the lounge area was (with drink facilities if required). Our booking was for 2 single rooms and as requested were on the same floor. The rooms, each with their own bathroom, have everything you need and the beds were very comfy. Overall this B&B is nice and clean and in a good location. At the end of my stay I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Steve and through our chat I could see his passion for ensuring his guests would have a great stay (since they took this place on last year), and that he would be a good custodian of this lovely old Victorian building. I look forward to returning in the very near future.
Have stay at this hotel a few times now so we decided to stay again for the bank holiday weekend. Once again the hotel staff were excellent and could not do enough. 24 hour reception is useful. The rooms are basic, nothing fancy but they are clean and just what you need for a short vacation. Nice little snacks in the reception area, Rocky biscuits and sweets. Fridge down stairs with access to 24hr alcohol that pick and pay for at receptions. What is a nice addition is the snack bag in the morning. Parking pass from reception which lasts for 24 and then just update Overall I love this hotel, great location, great price and allows pets

Very Good
I used to be a regular guest at this hotel, but I have not stayed for a few years. It was a pleasure to return and see some familiar faces. It was also very nice to be remembered from quite a few years ago, and to receive a warm welcome. My room was clean and comfortable, with plenty of towels and toiletries provided. Breakfast was as plentiful and delicious as I remembered from last time. As I arrived quite late, I had to park about 10 minutes walk away, but the complimentary parking permit was very much appreciated. I hope to be back again soon!
Checked in and was greeted by a very helpful and friendly Adel who kindly gave us a very nice room which is clean and bright and Ruth who rung to ask for feedback. I would give 5 stars for their service but 1 star for the hotel itself for reasons below. Unfortunately, the water stops for quite a while during my showers (up to 3 times on one occasion) which is not nice when covered in shampoo not knowing if it will come on again! It also makes a loud whirling noise like a helicopter outside when in the bedroom. The bed is very soft and there are some not nice smells in the corridors. The reception is unmanned most of the time so expect to wait outside on arrival to be let in or if you need a receptionist. Apart from that, the hotel is well located a few minutes from the pier and 10 minutes walk to the town centre. Overall the hotel needs redecorating inside and out. Hopefully the management will do this soon. The great plus in staying in Eastbourne unlike Brighton and other seaside towns are the free parking everywhere within 5-10 minutes walk to the town centre and pier / seaside.

Eastbourne Pier
JJQKABBQCompared with other Baiyadi eastbourne , the municipal planning is winning. There is no garbage on the road. London is in a state of high winds. The garbage is flying in a thousand net comforts. You can feel that there is a person behind it. Keeping it up the beach and going to matcha-flavored tiramisu first experience the downhill return. How far is this walk uphill? This walk totals 30,000 steps for reference. People of all kinds feel their ease and happiness and envy. They can run on such a large grass slope. There is a hook that looks at the scene of the owner's children and their husband's dogs playing. I am far away at the door of my hometown in Shanghai. My dog son and his friends are experiencing an infinite cycle of epidemics. It is difficult to go to the toilet. The epidemic has occupied three years. I hope that Shanghai can kill a blood road this time. I hope that people can be more in the disaster that is out of control. More sinking hearts to think independently about how to live better
Eastbourne Miniature Steam Railway
TTodemmyPleasant place! Convenient, free parking, reasonable cost. Young and old alike enjoy taking small trains in the park. Pleasant walk around the lake and wooded area, lots to see along the way. There are refreshments, clean toilets and plenty of outdoor seating on site. If you bring picnic items, the parking lot is close so you just need to ask for re-entry at the door so you don't have to run around with your basket.
Hampden Park
Jjack Smethemlovely park with a great lake full of wildlife and great for the family for a good day out. A great place to rewind and chill out
Sovereign Harbour Marina
易易茜韵楹We walked here along the pedestrian street from the dock area, it's worth the walk in good weather and you can see the locks at work as the boats come in and out. Bars and restaurants are plentiful, but unfortunately most food was average, except for the sunset.
