The rooms are just spacious enough, providing a lot of privacy and adding to the restful atmosphere. The spaces are clean, functional and the staff is very kind and considerate. Overall, Selina is a fun and welcoming place to spend a couple of nights.

The Harbour’s location is unmatched when it comes to sea views. After its total makeover in 2015, the hotel is now a modern space, with some funky decor, perfect for couples or families looking for a more relaxed hotel to stay by the seaside.
The rooms are clean and comfortable with some stunning views of the ocean. The facilities are also excellent, with a gym room, underground luxury spa and restaurant. We also loved the breakfast they serve up each morning.

Located in Kemptown, the Drakes Hotel is a wonderfully quirky luxury boutique hotel. It has anything you would look for in a romantic seaside hotel, stunning beach views, grand facilities and welcoming staff.
The rooms are sea-facing, with bathtubs strategically placed right in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, there’s no better way to relax and fully take in the beauty of Brighton’s seafront. The beds are huge and comfortable and the monsoon power showers are perfect.

Looking out over the Brighton Marina, Malmaison is a harbour of peace, away from the hustle and bustle of the town centre. With excellent facilities, such as the terrace restaurant, parking and a bar, it’s a great choice for anyone seeking a relaxing stay on the waterfront.
The rooms are comfortable and spacious, with excellent views of the Marina and some even having private terraces overlooking the water. We really love their breakfast and their varied selection of drinks at the bar.

The former Jury’s Inn Hotel, the Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton Waterfront is perfectly located right near the Pier. A more formal, business-like hotel, it’s still a lovely place with some excellent sea views.
The rooms are comfortable and minimalist. The hotel’s facilities include many meeting rooms, a fitness centre and even an indoor swimming pool. With its prime central location, it’s easy to get to and from anywhere in town back to the hotel on foot.
