Hotels in BrightonAn independently owned 3-star on Hove seafront
8.3/10
A strong seafront pick for clean, spacious rooms and friendly service.
This independently owned 3-star on Hove seafront is a strong pick for a straightforward seaside break. Tripadvisor and Expedia guests repeatedly praise the helpful staff, clean rooms and generous space; sea-view rooms give the setting extra appeal. Breakfast also earns consistent praise, and the on-site Chilli & Mango Thai kitchen makes staying in for dinner practical. We'd choose it for comfortable basics and good value rather than luxury.
The biggest catch is parking: it's free, but the hotel advertises only 25 first-come spaces, and guests describe tight access. Rooms lack air-conditioning, while some guests report sound carrying between rooms. Brighton's central attractions are a walk or bus ride away, rather than immediately outside. We'd skip it if guaranteed parking, air-conditioning or being in the middle of Brighton nightlife matters most.
