We were lucky that our usual (though, now unimaginitive) choice, the Hotel du Vin had no rooms available but that the Cavalaire did. If you are looking for clean, modern rooms, good breakfast and good service then the Cavalaire has them all.

Our room (3?) was reasonably large though we had chosen to pay slightly more for a room described as larger on the very useful and accurate website.

Parking is usually difficult very close to the hotel so be prepared to walk for up to 5 minutes.

Yes, we'd stay here again.

“Even helped park my car!”

Cavalaire Hotel

15 May 2008

My boyfriend and I stayed here for two nights to celebrate our joint birthdays. We arrived on Friday afternoon and struggled to find a parking space...that I felt would be "easy" to park in! But Derek soon persuaded me to squeeze into a spot right outside! And when I really was struggling, he was on hand to help!

The Hotel itself was lovely, beautifully done in a modern yet tasteful way and the breakfasts were absolutely amazing...highly recommend the salmon and scrambled eggs!

The bedrooms are lovely. Some maybe on the small side, but they are still fresh and clean and do the job as a base for your time away.

Derek and Garry are great and we strongly recommend you pay them a visit as you won't be let down.

stayed here recently - nice hosts, great breakfast - well cooked, fresh fruit etc. but room was very small - felt a bit claustrophobic. Beauifully kept - but would prefer to stay somewhere larger next time

“Loved the Cavalaire Hotel”

Cavalaire Hotel

This little Hotel/B & B redifines the traditional Bead & Breakfast experience. Warm Welcome - Clean and well decorated rooms with quality bedding etc. Bathroom in our room was a little on the small side, but to be fair we were offered an alternative room with a bigger bathroom if desired. Breakfast was superb - brand name cereals, real fruit juices, cooked breakfast presented hot and fresh, ground coffee and tables set with quality crockery & cutlery. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts and the position of the hotel is situated in exactly the right area for a good night out with excellent restaurants and bars on the door step.
We can highly recommend this Bed & Breakfast and look forward to our next stay later in the year.
We decided to travel to Brighton by train as the parking can be difficult. We took a taxi from the station (£6.00p) however you could walk, which would take approximately 20 minutes.

We spent a fabulous weekend at the Cavalaire, in the gorgeous surroundings of the lovely Room 3. It's often hard for hotels to be both friendly and stylish - you usually have to sacrifice one or the other - but here Garry and Derek manage to deliver both.

The welcome was warm and genuine - we were greeted with a glass of wine, Derek made restaurant reservations for the first night, and we were allowed to borrow from their huge DVD collection. Breakfasts were generous, tasty and cooked to order; a great way to start the day.

The downsides? None, unless you like your hosts to maintain a cool distance. This is not part of a faceless chain, and although I never found him intrusive Derek is definitely a host, not a hotel manager.

I've just read this back and I think it sounds as if they put me up to it! Actually, this is a trustworthy review from a happy guest. Go there!
