Overall Ratings & Reviews The Relish

Absolutely loved our overnight stay at this lovely hotel. The service was excellent, great communication and as for the breakfast, well that was simply delicious. A perfect night away and much needed. Thank you both x

Great older property with lots of charm. The gentleman working the front desk was very helpful and kind. It was a bit warm on the top level (seasonably hot weather). but otherwise it was amazing, also lots of stairs to be aware of. The location was great and easily walkable to the sea!

The young man who checked us in was very polite and friendly. Our room was clean and the bathroom looked newly decorated. Breakfast was great - would certainly stay here again.

Lovely, comfortable room in an amazing property! Absolutely spotless throughout, good breakfast, and Raj was brilliant. Amazing service, so helpful & kind. We will definitely be coming back.

hotel was more of a B&B, however, the hotel is very clean, well appointed, comfortable and the breakfasts are excellent

Highly recommended. Well fitted out spacious room, very comfy king size bed, lovely breakfast. Absolutely nothing to fault.

Welcoming, clean and comfortable room, excellent freshly cooked breakfast

Nice friendly hotel

The room was clean and the hotel a short walk from The Leas and the beach front, I found the countertop bathroom sink was too high for me to wash my face in comfortably.

Only issue was having to walk uu 4 flights of stairs to the room

Newly refurbished with home made cakes and good quality breakfast. Very warm welcome and close to the seafront. Very expensive at £95 for a a tiny en-suite single bedroom, up 6 flights of steps. Plus parking is £4 a night.

What a cracking little hotel. Highly recommend as super friendly & personal service. Far better service than the bigger international chains . Breakfast was superb .

We stayed one for one night, had a lovely stay and excellent breakfast. Well done Laura

Room was great, clean and ready a bit earlier than expected. Breakfast was really good.

Great location, gorgeous hotel, incredibly helpful and friendly staff. Brilliant breakfast, banana bread and brownies. Our thanks to Laura and Rakesh for a most excellent stay!

Parking was a bit tricky, but the hotel was fantastic and offered one of the best breakfasts of our entire trip.

We had a very relaxing stay, great hospitality and breakfast. Lovely room (orchid). Would highly recommend.

Clean, spacious room, close to great restaurants and pubs. I would come back!

On arrival found the place to be very welcoming. First impressions very good. At bed time found my son’s camp bed had 3 springs missing and was lop sided. Had been made up this way, was not safe to sleep. Went down to reception and rang the bell, heard ring inside the occupier who lives on sites living accommodation but no one arrived after 5 mins. So called the main phone line and the lady answered immediately, felt like we weren’t so important once checked in but she was quick to answer the phone to a new client enquiring potentially. To be fair it was sorted swiftly but it was a bit baffling someone made it up in such poor condition. We had an early start the morning after and went down to get the kids a bowl of cereal before we left for our journey to France. The lady who runs it, quickly scrambled upon the breakfast room and rudely announced we had not paid for breakfast. My bad entirely but it was not mentioned on checking in and I just assumed it was included. I quickly put her at ease and said I’d happily pay for the breakfast. On checking out I offered to pay for the two children’s cereal bowls (aged 2 & 9) expecting for it to be waived as it was so minimal but was charged £10. Such a shame because genuinely really enjoyed the facilities and would have considered staying again because we really enjoyed our trip to France. Little things like that go so far and it’s the difference between becoming a returning customer or not. Pretty disappointed.

Definitely recommend The Relish. The location is great. Very close to the harbour and beach. Also close to Battle of Britain memorial. It's very clean and Julia was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent. I really enjoyed my 2 night stay here. Would stay again for sure. There was £3.30 daily charge to park on the street out front, which was convenient for me. The weather although great did not hinder my stay thankfully. Thank you to all the staff at The Relish.
