Always welcoming and a properly staffed reception. Lovely rooms at the front. Stocked bar with a very handy pizza & beer offer for £12. Quality linens in the rooms. Unrestricted parking 50yds away. The Strand has become my 'go to' for Eastbourne and I usually stay there twice a month (having tried 7 or 8 other hotels along the strip).

Clean rooms, decent food

I had a very pleasant stay overall. The hotel staff were exceptionally courteous and welcoming, which I greatly appreciated. The only concern was the level of noise during the night, which did impact the quality of rest. Aside from this, my experience was highly positive.

We used this a base for the beachyhead marathon. Was perfect for our needs. No lift though so expect to be tackling multiple flights of stairs through the labyrinthine property. It was very reasonably priced for location. Though that does translate to the amenities, but if you are looking for a short stay budget option with a bar open 24 hours for guests and 24 acess to pizza, its a great shout and will save you a few quid. Its about 5 or 10 minutes from some excellent local pubs. Though finding parking will be a struggle, but thats the burnden of staying on the grand parade.

The whole experience was awesome. But lift needs restoration. Room was clean. The staff were brill! The Bar was something else!!!!

Absolute disgrace, we booked and paid for our stay in March through Expedia. We turned up and were told the HOTEL had cancelled our booking in April. They had not informed Expedia or ourselves or given us our money back! Expedia refunded us quickly after contacting the hotel AVOID!

Very friendly helpful staff. No parking at hotel but easy to park in a nearby side road. Very convenient for the town and surrounding areas so we didn't need to use the car for the 4 days we stayed.

Close to beach

Rooms were a bit basic, I felt procarious standing in the bath trying to shower as no grab rails. Taps were difficult to open and close. Entrance steps had some that were loose

Good any relaxing atmosphere.

Terrace area very basic, ended up using terrace bar of hotel next door

Perfect politely staff special gentlemen in night. Very friendly

Cheap, clean and tidy . Skeleton staffing meant a wait if you needed anything , waited 10 - 15 mins to get checked in and at the bar . Great location

The receptionist was great and very helpful. All the staff were friendly and never far away. The room was a good size and the bed and bedding were all good. The bathroom and toilet were tiny but worked. When sat on the toilet my knees touched the wall in front of me. The shower worked as it should and there was plenty of hot water. The drain smelt. The basin was do small I could not wash my hands in it together had to rinse each hand one at a time. Other than that the room was warm and quiet.

Bathroom a little on the small sid, other than that great stay

Ok inexpensive hotel for a night stay.

Very reasonably priced for it's location and the bed was comfortable. However, the room was very cold and the curtains didn't cover the window which made sleeping difficult. There was also mould in the shower and the decor in general was very faded. You could also hear any internal noise from the corridor and the wifi didn't reach to my room.

In a lovely place, staff very friendly and helpful always

When going to used the shower we had no water coming out of it. We were in a rush to get out so went down to tell the receptionist. When arriving back to the hotel that evening the hotel staff said it was sorted. Went upstairs and my 5yr old daughter got into the shower. We managed to get it to a warm temperature at this point I started to wash her hair what I didn’t realise was when I went to rinse the shampoo out the temp continued to rise and burnt her but I was quick to remove! The shower had no cold water going to it at all. They did move us to another room but this could have been very messy if I hadn’t been so quick. WC and Shower room could do with updating as looking very old and tired. Also still had someone’s empty shower gel bottle left in the shower.

There was no where to park, although there was parking it was all taken, maybe because I arrived late at around 11.30pm. Could do with a bit of updating, it was clean and comfortable.
