Very Piecefull hotel, cleen rooms, comfortable. I slept in till 10:50, and made the 11:00 checkout, even with a room at the busy end of the corridorr, overlooking the car park, I was not woken by any noise - you can't say that about many hotels. I did have the burger on room service, and I eat a lot of... more

Stayed for two nights when visiting Brighton in Oct 07. My daughters also stayed in a twin room for one night. Given the poor reviews on trip advisor, I was a bit worried about what to expect.

I wasn't expecting the hotel to be very good for the price we paid, but it was excellent! The staff were friendly... more

The rooms are clean, comfortable and well appointed, the quiet location engenders a restful ambience, yet it is quite close to the London-Brighton motorway. Easily the best value for... more

Booked pretty much at the last minute after other plans fell through - just needed a break for a couple of days with my girlfriend. I chose it more for the location than anything - it's fairly close to the Jolly Sportsman pub (East Chiltington), where we wanted to eat one evening. On the face of it, everything was bearable... more
