Served its purpose

Visited Brighton over the weekend to see some friends. The room was small with a small window in the corner but it was basically just a bed for the night so nothing special was needed. Also word of warning, I booked the Brighton Hotel but was transferred to the Kings Hotel across the road

The Brighton Hotel was unavailable, due to renovations; so we were rebooked in the sister Hotel, ‘The Kings’ adjacent to the original booking & a like for like 3***. Mostly the Staff were civil, polite & helpful. Initially allocated Room.133, this accommodation was unacceptable, as it resembled a coverted emergency exit path; below stairs. This was remedied by a polite lady in reception, whom accepted that the original booking had been ‘lost in translation’; from the original’Brighton Hotel reservation. The Rooms were basic, but clean & bedding comfortable. Bathroom was clean & well kept. I believe my second room had USB charging available? Breakfast was Room service only, due to ‘social distancing’; but was cooked well & ample. Tea, Coffee & milk are abundantly available in the room. The Hotel is in a Sea Front location & convenient walking distance, from entertainment and F&B.

Poor parking. Lots of fixtures very tired and in a couple of cases grubby. Looked like lipstick mouth shaped by the lift and dirty black mark on the net curtain. Room was small and basic but OK for just one night. The staff however were very good especially those in the restaurant for breakfast.

Stay at Brighton Hotel - 6th March 2020

Unfortunately there was a large scaffold along the whole front of the hotel, and the room we were in was not very clean overall, windows inside and out needed cleaning Location is great, but the hotel is pretty tired. Breakfast was good, and the service at breakfast was friendly

Located opp beach just past the i360 tower (worth the £15 to go up to view Brighton & surrounds) - about 15-20 easy walk down West st from train stn, turn right at beachfront. Room bit dated but comfortable & clean with decent shower, they currently have scaffolding over front of hotel, but all good inside with bar & restaurant facilities. Would stay here again. Can walk to all shopping areas / centres - the Lanes area well worth a visit.

My girlfriend I came down to Brighton to take part in the Half Marathon which was taking place on Sunday 23rd February,, prior to our arrival I received an email from the hotel informing us of the scaffolding on the front of the hotel. When we arrived on Saturday we could see that the front of the hotel needed a lot of attention with bare brickwork showing. We entered the lobby , which was clean and welcoming and made our way to the front desk,, we checked in no problem and were given the roon 123 on the first floor which was at back/side of the hotel due to the scaffolding blocking all the sea views I imagine. Our room was clean and warm with the radiators on. Nicely made double bed. Tv and shower room/toilet. Which was all clean and tidy. I was not around for the included with price of the room breakfast. My girlfriend informs me it wasn't edible. Toast not toasted, green scrambled eggs,, and not very nice looking smoked salmon. Not thinly cut,, and brown-ish,, not at all appetizing by all accounts.

The property is being refurbished on the front but inside it was clean and looked good. However my room was very small for a double and my shower sounded like a lawn mower, when switched on. Jamie behind the front desk was excellent and showed great customer service though!!! When I told him about my room, he quickly looked for another room for me to move into and enthusiastically offered to come up straight away to help me move over, even though he was busy on the computer and alone behind the front desk. I did not move as it was late and I was only staying there two nights. Then after I left the hotel I realised that I had forgotten a top in the room. When I phoned the hotel to ask if it was found, Jamie answered and informed me that it was found by housekeeping. He told me that he would post it to my residential address and charge the card on file, making it painless and worry free for me. Jamie showed great customer skills, concern and care. He's a big reason why I'll go back to the hotel again and a huge asset.
