Brilliant location. Great host. High class venue for party or relaxing stay.
Pros:

Breakfast was brilliant. We felt nalis. Think that was his name, needs a lot more help. He was excellent but was rushed off his feet. Greedy owners need to help him with more support or staff.

Cons:

Parking was a problem. Lucky we got a spot outside. But it was extra on our stay.

Great location, spotlessly clean and comfortable rooms.
Pros:

Super clean hotel, nicely decorated, very comfortable beds.

Cons:

Not the fault of the hotel, but our top floor room was a little too warm on a hot summer’s day. They made us as comfortable as possible with a large fan.

If I was coming back to this area this hotel would be top of my list to book.
Pros:

The location worked for me, close enough to food, to have a walk, good location. The hotel was good to excellent, worked well for what I needed.

Cons:

Parking in this area is a challange, I "managed" it but it was a case of finding some parking near enough to the hotel. Paying for parking was a challange for sure.

Pros:

Modern, clean room, nice staff

Great location, lovely staff, good breakfast but room was not cheap.
Pros:

Great location and nice room, with a view over the park and to the sea.

The staff were all really friendly and very helpful.

We had breakfast one day which was very good. Good value at £15 per head and cooked fresh to order. I would recommend the breakfast.

Cons:

The price of the room was high. £330 a night (excluding breakfast) felt steep but I guess that this reflects Brighton's pricing over a Pride weekend.
