10/10 Excellent
"I was very happy I paid extra for a Seaview room, the room was large and the view fantastic. Great location, right on the seafront, lovely and easy walk to either Brighton or Hove. My only concern was the bath/shower, it was an over the bath shower that was very narrow and slippery, I was very concerned about slipping."

Frequently asked questions

Which area of Wilmington is best to stay in for cheap hotels?
For travellers seeking cheap hotels in Wilmington, the areas surrounding the town centre, particularly those a little further out from the immediate high street, often offer the best value. While Wilmington itself is a village known for its historical significance and natural surroundings, travellers looking for budget accommodation will typically find more options in nearby larger towns like Eastbourne or Hailsham, which are just a short drive away.For solo travellers, Eastbourne provides a wider array of affordable guesthouses and smaller hotels, especially in the areas slightly back from the seafront. These often include breakfast in the room rate, which can contribute to overall savings. The town is well-connected by local bus services, making it easy to reach Wilmington and other surrounding attractions without a car.Couples might prefer Hailsham for its quieter atmosphere and selection of independent inns and bed and breakfasts that sometimes offer competitive rates.
