The Southern Belle is a 19th century luxury boutique hotel and bar with cocktail lounge, offering accommodation adjacent to the Brighton seafront.

The light, spacious rooms at The Southern Belle include TVs and tea/coffee-making facilities. Some rooms offer a partial sea view.

We absolutely loved the place! The property was very welcoming, clean and authentic. We stayed in a lovely sea view room ( we got a free upgrade a few days before our arrival). We appreciated the open mic evening with lots of great music and beers at the pub :) PS. The breakfast is wow! Highly recommended!

Lee, the owner, was helpful and adapted to my needs. I could even do an early check in. Thank you so much, Lee. The room is big with a lot of light and everything needed. The location is perfect. I could see the beach from my window and heard the seagulls. I loved it. Close by there are nice coffee places, pubs, restaurants (special recommendations for Purezza - delicious vegan pizza, Bagelman - tasty bagels and Leman tea room - tea and scone in a British atmosphere), bus stops, beach, Brighton Pier... I feel safe in the neighborhood and the people in Brighton are really friendly. For people who like and can walk, it is totally easy to go everywhere by walking.

    Lovely Property, good location a stones throw from the seafront and Kemptown is a nice area just out of the noisy city centre. I had never stayed anywhere without a ensuite but we were on a budget for this trip, so I was worried but it was no issue at all, there was only 3 rooms to one bathroom and it was kept very clean, so cannot complain for the price!! Jon came to let us in and gave us a lovely welcome, he helped us carry our bags in and gave us all the property info we needed.

    The host, Leo, was eager to help and kind, exactly what we read in reviews from other sources before booking at Atlantic Seafront. As for other budget hotels in the area, the place is a little worn, but still very charming. The view is great, location is perfect for a walk in the Lanes/city centre/pier. Rooms are tidied every day and very clean.
