    Location was excellent. Rooms were clean and comfortable. Winston on Reception was very friendly, helpful and professional. Nothing was to much trouble for him.

    It would be great if the hotel would offer breakfast but it was not a big deal as there is a nice cafe right around the corner. A

    Got upgraded to a sea view room which was lovely and big and the view is just incredible. Only a 10 - 15 min walk from train station, ideal location right on the beach.

    We never liked our outlook from the window . But I guess it’s what you pay . The tv reception was bad . The room was to small but it was clean . Only had one issue with the sink in the bathroom. There was a drainage problem which we made aware to in reception.

    The room was comfortable for our one night stay . It was a little bit small for us but done the trick for one night . We never had breakfast. The location was good . On the seafront.

    There were a couple of negatives, we had out of date milk in the room (which is why my tea tasted off when we got there) but was changed very quickly at Reception. The shower temperature is hard to control and it takes a bit of effort to turn it off.

    It was situated exactly where we wanted to be for the Motor Show on the Western Lawns. Our room had been refurbished to a high standard and we had a lovely sea view. Slightly confusing, we still can’t work out whether they serve breakfast as it doesn’t say there is a restaurant in the hotel but it says bed-and-breakfast elsewhere.

    The shower pressure was quite poor, third floor if that’s still how it works. The room was a little crowded but it had a spare bed so I may have overlooked that when booking.

    The bed was comfortable and the location was great. The receptionist was very friendly. Would stay again but would potentially ask to move rooms if I’d noticed the shower pressure earlier.

    Had to run water for ages and ages before it got even slightly warm. Water pressure in shower also poor. When I called down to reception it was clearly not a surprise about not being able to get hot water and they just suggested I should have run the water for even longer. Unsightly pigeon muck on side window and visible on exterior of building immediately outside.

    Warm welcome on arrival. Comfortable bed. Nice side view of the sea. Room and bathroom very clean, newly fitted bathroom. Generally a good and comfortable stay.

    The hotel is located right in front of the beach. 12min walk from the railway station. Many cafés and restaurants around. The single room was somewhat small but had all I need and was very clean. Bed comfortable and the shower worked very well. I am so glad I booked this hotel! I got an upgrade on my room and it made my stay even better! Monica at the reception was absolutely amazing and helpful. The whole staff was. My first visit to Eastbourne was an amazing experience thanks to Alexandra hotel.
