Holiday Inn Brighton Seafront by IHG

8/10 Good
"We booked a delux room which was listed as sleeping 6 to accommodate us - 2 adults & 2 teenage girls. We had to request an additional bed to be brought to the room, as 2 sharing the sofa bed was unfeasible. We were told the arrangement for 6 would 3 in the king bed (!!) 2 sharing a sofa bed, and one on a roll in single bed. Reception staff were lovely and very helpful in getting the extra bed, but it didn’t arrive until 22:30 that night. Don’t bother with breakfast option - we found it chaotic with lots of items running out and terrible coffee. Lots of better breakfast spots minutes of the hotel. Great location, loved the sea view."
