I'd had a few drinks in the Bar of the Albion a few years before so when it came up when I was looking for affordable accommodation in Brighton for a weekend I quickly booked. I remembered the bar and foyer of the hotel to be very pleasant but when I looked online later at the reviews I was a... more

All the reviews regarding the bedrooms are accurate (or our 2 certainly were). The carpets were filthy with various colours of staining, the windows were so dirty that you could hardly see out of them. The bath was so stained around the plug hole that you would not of put in the plug to sit in especially with lots of... more

I stayed here for two nights with my children and a family friend. We booked through the hotel website. I could write for days on this but I will attempt to be succinct. The hotel is undergoing renovations, as in they are painting the outside, inside they are letting it rot. Our floor smelt of mould and damp, this was... more

In our room alone we had a broken shower rail, broken bath panel, broken jaccuzi, broken toilet roll holder and ineffective air con. Thick black mould around the bath. Stained and dusty walls. Stained carpets which the dull lighting could not hide and the bed was very uncomfortable. The food was poor, think of school dinners and your not far... more

...literally - the toilet hadn't been cleaned. The dirtiest hotel we have ever had the misfortune to stay in (and we've roughed it in India!). The window looked like it was last opened years ago and the skirting boards were thick with dust. The bathroom was mouldy and there were a few unidentifiable stains we didn't even want to think... more

Agreed it's not the Ritz, and although in need of total refurbishment, is not as bad as some of the reviews I read. (Unless I was just lucky). If you expect the Ritz quality, then pay the Ritz prices and stay elsewhere. I booked this hotel for four nights through last minute.com and was extremely worried as I read the... more

I read the reviews on the hotel and was very seriously thinking about cancelling my booking and staying at another hotel. I'm glad that I didn't do this as I found my room very comfortable, clean and with the facilities I needed for my 6 day stay. I booked a single room through expedia and the cost was very reasonable.... more

Room was basic, a few broken bathroom accessories, generally jaded! pity since it had loads of potential. Beware breakfast ends very promptly at 10 wether you're in the middle of a cuppa or not!. Carpet was interesting. Considered posting a section back upon my return home! Rude Duty Manager. No residents bar so make the most of last orders! On... more

What an absolute shambles of a hotel. Do not stay here, it is worse than staying at a Travellodge or a Premier Inn, made me wish i was staying in one! Rooms very unpleasant as is the hotel above the second floor. Lighting fixtures hanging off with wires exposed, wallpaper ripped off walls in vast amounts. Room was very small... more
