As I was attending a ceremony at Shoreham Airport this seemed the ideal place to stay... however, as the weather was glorious (25 degrees plus) during the day, we had to leave the windows open and the noise of the traffic on the A27, even early on a Sunday morning was horrendous! Also the curtains were badly fitted to the window and not thick enough to keep daylight out....
We seemed to have experienced many of the same problems as reviewer 'Twobucks' - uncomfortable bed, uncontrollable shower...
Also when we arrived staff at reception were not particularly friendly - I was even hung up on by reception when asking for a taxi to be ordered...!
It's only saving grace was the full English breakfast which was very nice. Staff serving at breakfast were also very helpful.
I would not stay here again.

Situated on the busy A27 Brighton Portsmouth road this is one of those bland and instantly forgettable hotels. The room was small but adequate enough and the bathroom spacious by comparison but the shower was uncontrollable and threw water all over the floor. The bed was just big enough for the two of us and the bedding not big enough to cover the bed itself. On the plus side the full English breakfast was good and the dining area was pleasant. On the whole though this is not a place I'd rush back to visit.

I stayed here last night for a 1 night business trip. It seemed to be the best hotel in the area.
It is clean and functional, a bit in the middle of nowhere, placed between Lancing and Shoreham. The room was spacious, clean but very dated and the quality of furnishings etc, are more reflective of a 2* than 3*, even though a single room is £75.
In terms of amenities, it has a spacious restaurant/bar/sunny conservatory, but is located on a busy motorway, across from a small airport.
The restaurant menu has a lot of fish, I presume the proximity to the sea dictates this. I was disappointed that the bar didn't offer a different style menu, to provide options. I choose not to eat at the hotel, but rather to travel into Brighton.
The breakfast times are limited, as are access times for entry etc, the breakfast ingredients are cheap so not very appetizing.
If you have to be in Lancing, it seems to be the best option, but I wouldn't return. Brighton at 8 miles away seems to have more options.
