“Spoilt for Choice”

The Griffin Guest House

9 May 2008

We have just returned from The Griffin in Brighton, rang on Thursday a/m and were told no problem for an overnight stay. Owners Chris and Kieranhad excellent customer care skills and were very informative.
When we arrived we were greeted welcomly, we found this hotel very homely and at ease, we were given a room which had a four poster bed, walk in large shower separate wc and very tastefully decorated, this hotel lies in the heart of Brighton, a short walk to all shops and buzzing nightlife.
In the morning we had a cooked full english breakfast that you rarely get at most hotels all included in the price, we strongly advise visitors to Brighton go to The Griffin for all the above reasons.

Friendly, comfortable and well situated, we stayed in room 4 which is very boutique with a whirlpool bath in the room, and a four poster bed with crispy white cotton bedding, the room also has a small iron balcony with a view of the sea at the end of the road.
Excellent value for money, will be staying here again and recommending to all our friends.

“excellent!”

The Griffin Guest House

24 Mar 2008

Loved it here!! Stayed here with my two friends and we all said it was the most welcoming place we have ever stayed.
The rooms are clean and tasteful, and cleaned everyday, which is good when your messy buggers like us! the breakfast was lovely and keiron and chris both went that extra mile to make you feel comfortable. the cats are adorable too!
A real nice hotel where you feel at home and relaxed!
I'm definatly coming bk next year with my boyfriend!

“Beyond Accomodating”

The Griffin Guest House

Save Review
5 of 5 stars
Cambridge
12 Mar 2008

I and two friends stayed at the Griffin Guest Hotel and had an amazing time. Chris and Kieran were beyond accomodating. So helpful and welcoming, attending to any need, hair dryer, they lent us one, wine glasses, they lent us them, even when chipping one of the glasses, they were not in the slightest bothered. They put an extra bed in one of our rooms and charged no extra. The breakfast was a delight, well balanced and cleanly cooked, not a glimpse of greese in sight, my friend especially enjoyed the salmon and scrambelled eggs, lovely. I would recommend this 'chilled' hotel to anyone, just soo accomodating.

Thank you Chris and Kieran, we will stay at your hotel if we visit Brighton again, great time. David
