Was ok but lacked in areas
Pros:

Good location, nice bar area and the shower was great.

Cons:

The feathered pillows and duvet, these were uncomfortable and not great with allergies.
The room ok, the glasses at the side of the bed were full of dust so assumed these hadn’t been cleaned or changed in a while.
The bench seat at the foot of the bed was full of questionable white stains which was un pleasant.
The rooms are ok, very small and nowhere really to put a suitcase.
The hotel is quite pricey for the quality.

Pros:

Excellent breakfast…very comfortable bed..excellent staff

Cons:

A dog was allowed to roam around in the bar area I think it should be on a lead… outside signage to find the entrance would be helpful.

Clean and comfortable
Pros:

Excellent location at Brighton Marina. Free to park in the multi storey car park which is next to the hotel. The room and en-suite was clean, well stocked, and the bed comfortable. We were happy with our stay and would definitely stay there again. Reception staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely, just right for our needs.
Pros:

Attractive design, good location by the marina, and seafront nice environment being developed there, with a good choice of eateries nearby.
Loved the ease of parking, free for the whole stay, no faffing with number recognition etc.
The receptionists were all lovely and helpful, and the sweeties on the reception were a nice touch, especially the rhubarb and custard.

Cons:

Hard to find the entrance from the marina, between 2 restaurants and through a tunnel, could be better indicated.
It was further to Brighton centre than we thought it would be, but that’s probs on me.

Enjoyable stay with our 2 pooches
Pros:

The staff where very helpful and polite, the rooms very clean, We brought 2 x dogs and they loved there beds and treats.
On the Saturday morning when we went down for breakfast the young man waiting on us was so friendly and considerate brought water and sausages for the dogs and also fetched a tray to make it easy to carry things back to our table.

Cons:

The bed was very very hard, and having a bad back didn't sleep much. When we return we will try a bigger bed hopefully will get a better sleep.
The breakfast room was more organised and run better on the Saturday than on the Sunday morning.
