A great hotel at a good price: exceptional staff; lovely spacious room with very comfortable large bath. Excellent modernised bathroom with a bath. Breakfast choice excellent with hot food kept hot. Superb sea view location; just round corner is best fish & chips in Eastbourne and other nice restaurants. Very short walk to Congress Theatre where the tourist info is also.

Nice location has had basic refurb since my last stay. Asked for free room upgrade but quoted £154.00 in addition to my £121.00 for 1 night making this a very expensive 3star hotel.

Found the staff in the Vista bar on Thursday evening very rude and uncaring. They totally ignored me for at least 15 minutes - guess a grey haired single woman is invisible. The young lads behind the bar seemed more interested in chatting to each other than looking after their clients. I had to go to the bar to ask for wine/meal when it was supposed to be table service?? Had a similar experience the last time I stayed on a Thursday evening.
