Majestic Hotel Eastbourne by Belvilla

6/10 Okay

"Room was nice size, had pleasant sea view from 2 sash windows, however, smallest one sealed shut, largest one only opened about 4 inches because there was screwed-in wire connecting bottom of window to frame, stopping it from going up any further. Appalling for air circulation/cooling room during very hot days we stayed. Very unhealthy. We seem to be living more & more in nanny state where businesses think they can't trust you to behave safely, to not jump out of windows or to supervise your children properly. On other hand, they'd failed to repair broken shower door so that half a panel was substituted by flimsy shower curtain, making it fall risk for me as disabled person who needs solid sides in such a tiny square shower cubicle. Remaining bit of sliding door also didn't open properly, making it very hard to get in/out safely for disabled person who needs to hold on to something easily without twisting in order not to slip while squeezing through very narrow entry/exit space. Hotels need to get priorities straightened out. Think more about comfort/safety of particularly elderly & physically disabled guests - we need safe showers & fresh air. Worry less about being sued because someone decides to jump or parents too busy scrolling phones to engage with children. Put signs up to remind guests re open windows. If person slips/falls due to broken shower or has heart attack/stroke due to excessive heat in inadequately ventilated rm, THEN you'll have something to worry about."

The Burlington Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is in a great location overlooking the pier, near the shops and 10 minute walk from the train station. Room was clean and large. However there were no working elevators which is a tough slog when you’re on the top floor even tho I consider myself reasonably fit. We noticed this was reported in numerous other reviews over months if not years so we weren’t surprised when we arrived but the hotel staff told us there was an engineering team looking into it. Oh yeah? 😂 Might be time to get a new engineering team!"

The Grand Hotel Eastbourne

8/10 Good

"Positives: We had a lovely stay overall. The hotel itself is beautiful, and the rooms were very well presented. We stayed in two different rooms after extending our trip, and both were equally nice. The pool areas were great and well-kept, although a few more loungers would have been helpful during busier times. The location is excellent, with a wonderful beach directly opposite the hotel, which made it especially enjoyable. The reception and concierge staff were superb. Room for improvement: The continental breakfast could be better. Service in the breakfast and lunch areas could be improved. While staff were friendly and accommodating once engaged, we often experienced long waits to be seated at breakfast despite visible queues and available staff. Similarly, on the outdoor terrace, service was slow or absent at times—we waited over 15 minutes without being attended to and eventually had to order at the bar. The games room was also quite basic and could be enhanced to better match the overall quality of the hotel however offered some fun options for the kids."

The Chatsworth Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Incredible location across from the beach. Room was spacious and had a view of the beach and the pier. These older buildings don’t have AC but a fan was provided as was a small portable fridge. We didn’t try the bar or restaurant so we can’t rate those. We forgot some important items in our room on checkout and the staff were amazing. They contacted us right away when they found the items and offered to have a staff member deliver them to us. Really helpful."

Afton Hotel

8/10 Good

"Staff were very pleasant and helpful and the room was clean. The decor was dated but everything was well maintained. The hotel was dog friendly and in a central location with a sea view and lots of amenities nearby. We had a lovely stay."

New Wilmington Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Room was very spacious. Beds made every day, cups changed and ample clean towels. Also very accommodating to our dog. Would have given a higher score if it were not for the lack of air-conditioning. A fan just doesn't cut it in hot weather. Also, breakfast was ok, but would have been nice to have a bit more choice; maybe some pastries and more fruit options. Otherwise a decent hotel, well located near attractions."

Marine Parade Hotel

6/10 Okay

"Great location. My 3rd stay here."
