“Excellent stay”

The Heathers

13 Apr 2008

After recently staying at this hotel during a recent stag weekend to Brighton I must say it has been one of my better hotel experiences.

Upon arrival we were warmly greeted and given the keys to our rooms. Although they were minimalistic they provided everything that was needed; a clean and comfortable bed, a place to hang our clothes, clean towels, a TV as well as a tray full of supplies to make a cup of tea. The bathroom was on the small side but it supplied more than enough hot water for four people to have showers at night and in the morning and was very clean. The location is pefect, right next to the beach and only a short walk to the pier and the popular pubs, clubs and restaruants.

In the morning we were seated in a quaint and cosy dining room for our breakfast. The food was both plentiful and well cooked and along with the pleasant staff, a perfect start to the day.

I would be more than happy to return to this establishment and would gladly recommend this hotel to others.

“Superb stag weekend, nice hotel and even lovier staff”

The Heathers

13 Apr 2008

Where do i start to describe how much we enjoyed the stay in the Heathers. We were greeted by the owner who had a lovely smile and checked us in with no problem. We then went up to our rooms which were lovely and clean and on each of our beds were towels and soap. The bathroom was a little on the small side but it served its purpose.

When we were ready to head out, we went down stairs and met the owner again who helped us so much to find all the places we were going and even provided us with a map.

The beds were extremely comfortable I had an excellent nights sleep. When we went down to breakfast, surprise surprise we met the owner again who still had a smile on her face and asked us how our evening was. Breakfast consisted of a choice of cereals, orange juice, tea, coffee, plenty of toast and a lovely fry up which was well needed! I cannot say how much myself and my party enjoyed our stay at the heathers, a lovely hotel and warm welcoming staff.

thanks for reading

“Hated the Heathers”

The Heathers

31 Mar 2008

Good location and nice toast. Shame they were about the only good points. After booking a Hen weekend with a Hen party organiser we discovered we would be staying at the Heathers. Dormatory rooms and bunk beds are great for school kids, unfortunately not so great for 25+ year old women. Bathrooms were pretty clean but the showers were a disaster. Barely a trickle of water which occasionally sprayed in the right direction if you were very lucky. Two temperatures, burn your skin off hot or give you frost bite cold. Breakfast consisted of a plate of grease with some uncooked sausage and bacon floating around in it. Beans had so much pepper on them they were inedible. The water feature coming through the ceiling in the breakfast room was an interesting touch.

“Fantastic!!!”

The Heathers

3 Mar 2008

I booked this hotel for 11 of us on a stag weekend. The staff were all fantastic! Couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. Even helped us out with getting into the main part of town, which is only a short walk away!

The rooms are basic but very clean and modern with plenty of towels and tea/coffee!

In the morning there were even more friendly staff with smiles all round and full english breakfasts with lots of hot drinks and juice - much needed after a night out in Brighton!!

A very pleasant stay, thoroughly recommended and would definitely book again.
