The Laindons

Hastings

The contemporary, stylish rooms at the Laindons each have an en suite bathroom. The bespoke beds are created from recycled wood and crafted by local, award-winning craftsmen. All rooms include flat-screen smart TVs and complimentary on-demand movies, free WiFi and free toiletries. The Laindons is a B&B as it should be. The house and all rooms are decorated not like a hotel, but like a family living space. Very tasteful, comfortable and pleasant. The hosts are very friendly, breakfast is exceptional. Also the location is perfect in Hastings. Silent street, directly in the centre. The Laindons is certainly not cheap but it is probably the best hotel I have experienced so far.
