I stayed at The Pier Hotel for one night and found it to be a decent experience overall. The location right across from the pier was fantastic, giving me beautiful sea views from my room. While the staff were friendly and accommodating, I did notice that the facilities, especially the cleanliness in some areas, could use improvement. Overall, I would consider returning in the future, especially for that lovely location.

My room was nicely decorated and comfortable, but some areas needed a deeper clean. The bed was lovely and large, which contributed to a decent sleep, although I would have liked a table and chairs to sit at.

I had a wonderful stay, primarily due to the amazing location and friendly staff. The spot right next to the pier made it so easy to explore Eastbourne. However, my room had a few issues, including an uneven floor and a rather low bed that might not suit everyone. 😅 Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but a few improvements could enhance the comfort level.

Rooms

My room was generally clean and I appreciated having a fan, but it was lopsided, which was a little uncomfortable. I booked a double room, but it felt more like a twin room since the beds were pushed together. Also, the window was positioned high, making it hard to enjoy the view from bed.

While I enjoyed my stay, I felt there could be improvement in certain facilities and services to elevate the overall experience. For instance, having keycards instead of traditional keys would have been appreciated.

My stay at The Pier Hotel had its ups and downs. The location, directly across from the pier, was fantastic for exploring the area. but I encountered some maintenance issues in my room. While the staff were generally friendly and went out of their way to help, there were clear lapses in the overall cleanliness that left much to be desired.

Although there are some lovely touches, like the beautiful sea views, the facilities need improvement. particularly with the lift being quite small and slow.

I had a pleasant stay at The Pier Hotel, thanks to its prime location right across from the beach, making it easy to hit the promenade. The staff were super friendly and helpful, but I did find the room a little cramped, and the TV was a hassle. Overall, it was a decent experience, though the noise from seagulls was a bit much in the early morning.

My room had recently been redecorated, but the strong paint smell was a downside. The view was not great since I was at the back, but the bed was comfy and the shower was functional.

I recently stayed at The Pier Hotel and was impressed by its fantastic location right in front of the pier and the well-kept gardens. My room was comfortable and clean, and the staff were quite friendly, particularly Mourad at reception, who provided a warm welcome. Unfortunately, I had some issues with the reception not being staffed late at night, which made getting back in a challenge. However, overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.

My deluxe double room had a lovely sea view and was spacious with high ceilings. The bed was comfortable, and the mini fridge was a nice touch for keeping drinks cool.

The hotel's updated decor is appealing, and while there were cleanliness standards maintained, the lack of staff presence for assistance was a drawback I encountered.
