Hotels nahe South Downs Way (Eastbourne)

"Top lage, direkt am Meer und doch nahe zum Zentrum "

"I recently stayed at Hayden Hall Hotel in Eastbourne for two nights as a solo traveller. The location is fantastic – just steps from the seafront promenade, and only a 5-minute walk to the town centre. There’s also a nearby bus stop with connections to Brighton and other towns, and the train station is about 8–10 minutes away. The hotel has a charming exterior and a peaceful atmosphere. The reception and housekeeping staff were very friendly, and check-in was quick and easy. My single room on the third floor was small but had everything I needed: private bathroom, towels, soap, hairdryer, and a lovely sash window for fresh sea air. The hotel was quiet at night, which I appreciated. However, the room showed signs of wear. The carpet was stained and in need of deep cleaning or replacement. A used teaspoon had been left behind, and the duvet cover had a couple of small stains. The lift was very cramped, dusty, and outdated – not suitable for anyone with claustrophobia or hygiene concerns. Overall, it’s a decent budget option for 1–3 nights, especially for solo travellers. The great location and fair price make it a reasonable choice, though some updates and better attention to cleanliness would greatly improve the experience."

"Everything was perfect! Beautiful old grand hotel! Very clean and staff was exceptional friendly! We felt very welcomed and would come back any time. We loved it. "

"Roomkeeping was not good. It was only cleaned after it was pointed out and then only superficially. The breakfast was clear. The hotel has seen better days."

"The room/bathroom/furniture need some TLC. Everything works, but it needs thorough restoration. However the view was amazing!"
