Top Hove Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Brighton

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely staff, we’ve stayed before and always found this to be a great option for Brighton. Good location to everything going on and the seafront but a little quieter at night for families and easy parking. Clean rooms with good breakfast on offer"

DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay. The staff were all so friendly and helpful without exception. The location is great and our room exceeded our expectations. The pool was out of use during our visit but that was no fault of the hotel staff. We loved Brighton and would stay here again."

Holiday Inn Brighton Seafront by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Once again staying at a Holiday Inn Express and their air con was ‘temporarily’ not working - the one in Portsmouth has been temporary for about three years! Other than that great"

ibis Brighton City Centre - Station

8/10 Good

"Would not of had 5 stars. But even when I followed the steps to have bedding and a towel changed. They were not changed."

Numa Brighton Pavilion

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean except for the armchair which is in need of a shampoo. Everything else was fine, plenty of tea, coffee etc. My only real concern was that on the morning of check out, someone, presumably a housekeeper, opened my door then left again. I found this worrying because it was well before check out time, I was in the shower and I was a woman alone and defenceless. I thought I had double locked the door but obviously it can still be opened by staff."

Best Western Princes Marine Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was 110% outstanding at checking and check out and during our stay. We would like to express our gratitude to the night porter who was unable to put our wake up 2.30am calls though to our two rooms, the port came to our two rooms to make sure that we was awake. We would also like to say a big thank you for our packed gab and go breakfast being ready for our onward travels to LHR airport at check out. Thank you to all the staff making our stay enjoyable as your accommodation was so handy for our access to Hove County Cricket grounds where our grandson was playing a night match."

Harbour Hotel Brighton

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was lovely - such a relaxing atmosphere and lovely rooms. The staff were super friendly, helpful and responsive. The location is ideal - 15 minute walk in a straight line from the station, over the road from the beach and 5 minutes to the lanes. This was the best hotel spa I’ve ever been to - well worth the extra £10 to use. Large swimming pool, hydrotherapy pool, two hot tubs, sauna, steam room and calm chill out area. Will definitely be visiting again!"
