Fantastic family and dog friendly stay.

We stayed in a triple room. My wife and I, two boys (11&13) and our dog. The staff were friendly and the room was well equipped and done up to a nice standard, with a lovely view across the Downs towards the sea. We have an evening meal which was very nice. And the included breakfast was also top notch. For the price, I could not fault it, and would certainly recommend staying here.

Me & my partner stayed Friday 25th April as attending the game at the Amex Stadium on the Saturday. So friendly the staff, really relaxed and nothing was too much trouble. Food in the restaurant both at evening meal and breakfast was superb. Our room was a really decent size, and the decor spot on. Yes you could hear music from below from the bedroom, but we were advised this was likely and it wasn't an issue anyway. Would without doubt stay here again, when next visiting Brighton

Away for work

This was a 1-night stay for work. I was in room 3, which was very comfortable, tea & coffee making facilities, great choice of lighting in room. Ensuite was good. Wifi you had to provide an email address which you had to verify. TV was okay but did not have the BBC channels on it. Possibly the most comfortable bed I have slept in (whilst away from home) this year. The only downside was the radiator was on in the room and would not turn down/off. Car park was free. The only note getting to premises is it is right at the crossroad junction, so I missed it when I first went over junction.

Downs dog friendly hotel stay

Fantastic dog friendly pub & hotel. The room preparation was superb and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The dog was fantastically cared for. Great field across the road for exercising the dog as well. Very convenient location for access to & from A27.

A gem.

We booked this hotel as a stay for the night after atrending a black tie event. Well, the event was cancelled but i thought that we may as well keep the room anyway. One of my better decisions. From arrival, the atmosphere was friendly, the Harveys bitter well kept and the evening meal was great. Steak & Venison pie for me and Gammon steak fir my fiancé, with a side dish of topped toasted potatoes. The room was clean and spacious, and we found a welcome note from Sarah (the maid) welcoming us. Nice personal touch. Breakfast was also great. Perhaps the only slight nighle was that the duvet was possibly a little small. Butt maybe i'm just a closet duvet hog. All in all, we can thoroughly recommend this gem of an Inn.
