The place was fantastic, with an amazing sea view. The room was very large, with a beautiful bow window and even a leather couch positioned in front of it. The bed was huge. The owners were incredibly kind and helpful — they gave great recommendations for places to eat and were genuinely welcoming throughout the stay.

We had a great stay in this fabulous British hotel and with a great room with seaview. On our trip around the world we have came more times in Eastbourne, It's always great to come of course but romantic hotelroom adds value, that can't be denied. The bed was lovely, the choosen colors very warm and the balcony was spacious and the windows were just cleaned before our arrival so we had a great view on the boulevard. Breakfast was excellent. The bathroom was a place on it's own with all comfort that we needed and had super soft toiletpaper, something you don't see that often. Very nice. We highly recommend this hotel. Best regards, from Mr. and Mrs. C.U. Mings from Tightsqueeze, Virginia - USA

While the interior appears a little dated and tired when you first enter, the furnishing is actually very tasteful and makes you feel at home fairly quickly. It is somewhat the nature of places in Eastbourne, given they do tend to cater to an older demographic from what I can see. Room had a good view of the sea. Cooked breakfast in morning was high quality. Staff were all lovely, from reception desk to bar staff to waiters at breakfast. Definitely a good place to stay in Eastbourne, not too far from the main coastal strip.
