The seaview is pretty good, The toilet has bad drainage smell on the first night and the hotel team quickly helped us change to another room. Pets stayed here is quite expensive, the food in the restaurant is all right. Parking is a bit tricky on the main road.
We had the best time away for our girls trip. We didnt eat in the hotel but we did have breakfast which was so lovely. Everything we wanted on offer.
Our room was a sea view room and it was brilliant, so glad we chose to upgrade. Only things We would comment on as i feel the bathrooms could slightly be more modern and the rooms could benefit from air con but there was fans provided.
Overall it was an amazing night away and we would defo return.
Thank you

The hotel is an older building but very clean and well maintained. The staff at the Lansdowne were superb, all of them. The receptionist was welcoming, the bar staff were friendly and chatty. The restaurant crew were accommodating and professional. On arrival the room was not setup for four, an immediate apology and within 10 minutes the additional bed arrived and made up with care. The hotel has a free pool table that our boys loved.
What a lovely hotel! We loved the different lounge rooms to relax in and plenty of games for children. My parents and my family stayed here with three kids for a family reunion. The location is good. Service is impeccable in the bar. We ate in the restaurant and overall it was nice but Tomahawk Pork was dry and vegetables were very oily. Also Fish of the day was overcooked. However, we were a party of ten and the other meals were excellent. We also had seaside afternoon tea which was fabulous! Would I stay here again? Absolutely. The communal rooms were lovely and comfortable. Kevin was an amazing evening host. Bar staff were amazing and friendly. Cleaning staff were friendly and accommodating. Eastbourne as a destination highly recommend! Our fist time and loved all it has to offer.
Lovely hotel, great location and friendly staff. Perfect place to stay for a winter break.

First room was in good condition and had a nice bathroom but the tv didn’t work and couldn’t be fixed they kindly found another room for us which was quite dated and bathroom was clean but very old. This room was noisy with people walking past and light coming in from hall.
The Lansdowne is an amazing family-run hotel in a great location for exploring the scenic town of Eastbourne. The breakfasts are superb and the traditionally furnished lounge is a tranquil spot to while away some time boosted by the backdrop of sensational sea views. The bar menu offers some nice snacks too.The hotel provides reasonably priced parking permits so you can park opposite the hotel.
