Loved the space from the room.
The staff was friendly and helpful.
The WiFi was free only downstairs in the living room area, however poor connection.
The sheets and towels were smelling damp.
It would've been great if it was a fridge in the room.

We made a last minute booking to take advantage of a good weather week whilst we were in Sussex for another event. Having stayed before I was familiar with the hotel already. However I found the service so friendly and helpful and the room so good. We were only 1 minute from the pier, 3 minutes from restaurants, and a couple of minutes from the seasonal stalls selling knick knacks and food. So everything close to hand, the room was clean and comfortable and we had a great sea view. The lift is a great asset at this hotel, particularly for the elderly dog who no longer does stairs. This was a really enjoyable 2 night stay

It was fantastic good food excellent staff entertainment good. Opposite the pier and close to shops. Very clean if anything just needs a little updating but that didn't bother us. I took 47 people there and they all loved it. All in our 70s 80s and 90s.

Our room was simply decorated but clean and comfortable. Staff at reception and restaurant very friendly. Nice evening entertaining was a bonus!

Accommodation good. Had a single room. Side view of pier. Food excellent. Good choices each night. Staff were excellent, friendly and quick nothing too much trouble. Entertainment good every evening.
Only downside was that you only had a bath towel and no hand towel. Also bar prices a bit steep but that's to be expected in a hotel.
Would stay again.

Visited this hotel last week with our social club from Birmingham. Staff are very efficient and friendly. Couldn't fault the food. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We were there this time last year and were very happy to return. Merry Christmas all.

Lovely hotel and staff, food good. Shame about the shower in our room, not enough water pressure so unable to wash hair.

The hotel we should've gone to for our linedancing weekend away closed down for renovation so ended up in this little 3 star hotel. The staff were absolutely amazing and couldn't do enough for us. We were worried what the food was going to be like but shouldn't have because it was excellent (those of us with dietary requirements were well looked after). Rooms were clean, tidy and warm if a little on the small side but not overly worried about that.
The only down side was the size of the function hall and dance floor, just not big enough for everybody in our trip.

Friendly staff who are helpful and approachable.
Clean rooms and beautiful view of the pier and beach.
Dog friendly hotel.
Food was lovely and chef accomodating.
Great location to either beach or town
Only downside was no pressure in showers.
Would definitely recommend for people to stay.

Everything is fine but the best thing is that the hotel is next to the pier ⭐️

did quite a wide search looking for hotel with lift, seafront and ease for disabled. The Afton has 5 steps at entrance I was unaware but they will charge up mobility scooters for you. Rooms are good size plenty of wardrobe hanging space and drawers. Tea and coffee facility.The bathroom is a reasonable size but they call a walk in shower one that you climb into. I didn`t have difficulty but some might.Bed was soft but fairly comfortable. The room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was very good ...full english for those that eat that. Loads of toast tea good coffee dreadful. The main problem is parking you need to purchase a £2 a day ticket with your blue badge being displayed.

essly clean. Minor adjustments were quickly and efficiently dealt with. The food was excellent and well served. The staff were friendly helpful and cheerful. We had a lovely 5 days stay. The Afton is a well run and ideally situated hotel.

Visited afton hotel over bank holidays weekend. Marcus at reception was really nice and friendly. We got the sea view room directly facing the pier. Rooms are little on a smaller size and outdated but bathroom was good. Water pressure was pretty law so showering was not a good experience. Amenities provided were TV Tea coffee milk sugar kettle hairdryer, shower gel soap towel was everything we needed. Lobby area was good to sit and relax with a bar. Restaurant was not available. Overall a good location, polite staff and pocket friendly hotel. Location is very central, hop on hop off bus is right in front of the hotel. Kids enjoyed the stay. Will visit again.

Great location, right opposite the pier.
The hotel itself is not so great. It's possible my views are skewed as I foolishly booked for Saturday night of August bank holiday weekend when everyone descends. It was the best of a bad lot but overpriced at £99.
Staff friendly.
No issues as such.
Bathroom clean.
Bed was comfy and sheets clean.
Rest of the room was dusty and toothpaste/ dubious white marks on the doors.
Wardrobe doors had dark dirt on them I wiped off.
Fag buts littered all over the tiny unusable verandah.
Only one window opened.
Hot.
Noisy. Could hear floorboards upstairs creaking as well as everyone else talking and slamming doors in the hotel.
If you are not fussy and this is cheap then it's worth a stay.
Otherwise it's an overpriced DSS type BnB which is dated and tired.

The staff were really friendly and helpful especially Rockin. The room was 113 looking out towards the front and tended to get quite warm even though our stay was not during the heatwave.
Room was fairly small, clean and comfortable but had not been refurbished for many years and that did show and the rest of the hotel had the same neglected ambiance.
The hotel did not have a restaurant and there was no breakfast.
The rooms were expensive ca. £200 per night but this was the weekend of the Eastbourne Airshow and so that is understandable. On a normal night I would wish to pay less than £100 for that quality.
