The Strand Hotel

8/10 Good

"Ok for a few days. The hotel is basic but this is reflected in the price."

Best Western York House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Really amazing hotel, much better than I expected Rooms are very big, high ceiling and right in front of the sea for an amazing sea view . Highly recommended and will use this again. Big thanks to Mark for welcoming us despite us coming very late and the receptionists were super too! (Didn't catch either name) Rooms are clean and all staff are very helpful and great Keep up the amazing hospitality!"

The Grand Hotel Eastbourne

6/10 Okay

"We had stayed before and everything about the hotel remained good except, this time, the food and drink service, while always friendly and polite, was glacially slow. I had to keep reminding staff of orders because I didn't know if things were coming or not, whether in the restaurant or a bar area. Even a beer could take 20 minutes, and on one breakfast I had to ask four times over nearly half an hour before coffee and milk for cereal was brought to the table. The same happened the next day, I had to remind them to bring coffee and a menu so that we could order. Not very 'grand'. When I mentioned it on check-out the receptionist said I could with-hold the service charges if I liked, but I didn't want to penalise staff for what were clearly systemic shortcomings. She didn't apologise, just said they were very busy. In that case, get more staff or give time-slots for meals. We thought we had found a hotel we could return to many times and recommend, but probably won't now."

The Relais Cooden Beach

4/10 Poor

"We booked The Relais Cooden beach via Expedia particularly for its location and spa facilities. We had booked the "Cosy double room" because that was all that was left. On arrival we tried to book spa treatments but there were no available bookings during our three night stay. This was disappointing as there was no mention on the Expedia website that you needed to book in advance. Apparently, guests who booked directly with the hotel enjoyed free use of the spa whereas booking through Expedia there was an additional charge which we had to pay. Also, spa shower not working. If all this had been clear on the website we wouldn't have booked. No lifts and no help to carry luggage. Whilst I accept the sq ft of our room is on the website, it really is a shock how small it is. For a single traveller it might be Ok but for a couple with luggage in my opinion it's not up to the standard of a 4 star hotel. If you are a couple then I strongly suggest you avoid this room. While some rooms have air conditioning, this room does not and it's very uncomfortable at night in hot weather. It would make a good cupboard. The location of the hotel is excellent but it is a bit out the way with no restaurants or bars in the immediate vicinity. Inside the hotel there is no specific bar/lounge area, just a pool room that could be utilised better. There is a lovely outside bar/restaurant area with sea views but the service is abysmal. Expect long waits to be served or get your bill."

Marine Parade Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Room needs a deep clean. Dirty water drip marks on door to bathroom and also some dried brown streeks. Wardrobe had dead inserts on the shelf and base. Towel was worn around the edges, wearing thin and small holes not what I expect from a hotel. No housekeeping unless you paid extra. So had to use the same towel of 5 days. Toiletaries supplied for day 1. The windows were filthy, did not look like they had been cleaned for a year. Externally, the hotel needs significant maintenance. Wifi hardly worked. The room I stayed in was not in the 21 photos on Expedia. One positive, the bed was clean and comfortable and the hotel location on seafront close to pier, shops. 2nd worst hotel I've stayed in anywhere in the country in 35 years. Will not stay again and would not recommend."
