A lovely stay at the Burlington I found it to be a very friendly comfortable hotel. Staff very attentive. Perfect location There were certain areas that were not very clean. Around the shower cubicle. And my room wasnt cleaned in 5 days. And no fresh towels either. Unless you stood at reception and waited to be seen.

Perfect short stay in Eastbourne with a view of the seafront The room was really great - I had a single room and it had a view of the beach front. Both bedroom and bathroom were very clean, and the staff at the Burlington were SO lovely. It was well worth the price I paid and I'd definitely come back here. The only thing I could suggest was that the pressure in the shower wasn't great

We recently stayed at the Burlington Hotel and overall found it to be a good value-for-money option in a fantastic location.

The hotel itself is quite old and a little dated, but it has a certain charm. The reception staff were very friendly and welcoming, which made a great first impression. The lifts are wonderfully quirky and old-fashioned, adding to the character of the building.

Our twin room was a pleasant surprise, especially the lovely sea view. The room had all the essentials and was spotlessly clean, which is always a big positive. That said, some of the electrics looked a little sketchy and could probably do with updating. We also didn’t have housekeeping the whole time of our stay…not sure if that’s the norm or if our room was simply forgotten. We had to request a clean towel midway through which was delivered but no one came into our room to make beds, change towels or remove rubbish.

One challenge during our stay was the temperature of the room. It was extremely hot — more like a sauna — and we discovered the thermostat downstairs was set to 24°C, which felt excessive for mild spring weather. Someone must be happy paying big heating bills! Reception explained that someone older may have requested the heating on, but unfortunately it didn’t seem possible to adjust it in our room. We tried opening the window, but on the first morning a pigeon flew straight into the room, so we couldn’t risk leaving it open any further! Reception staff did kindly bring us a fan to take the edge off however having the heating off would have been most helpful. The lady at reception when we left really didn’t seem bothered about our complaint, which was a shame as everyone else seemed quite attentive

Breakfast offered a good range of choices and is entirely self-service, including a full English along with plenty of other options. Service in the dining room varied depending on who was on duty: one member of staff was incredibly energetic and kept everything running smoothly, while another seemed a bit slower, meaning plates piled up and tables weren’t cleared as quickly.

During our stay we also had to report a strong smell of cannabis on our floor, which lingered for several days before seeming to move elsewhere in the hotel. It wasn’t particularly pleasant having to walk through that smell regularly.

That said, the location is excellent — right on the seafront and within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants and the town centre.

Overall: If you’re looking for a budget-friendly stay in a prime seaside location, the Burlington is a solid choice. It may be a little dated and have a few quirks, but the cleanliness, friendly staff and unbeatable location make it worth considering. 🌊🏨

You can see how wonderful this old building would have been in the day. It has a kind of charm but feels like it could literally crumble at any moment it's clean and the staff are lovely. It's cheap and with a little bit of nostalgia a lovely stay great view perfect location and I would absolutely stay again.

A good value hotel in an excellent seafront location within easy walking distance of the town centre, shops and restaurants. The building is old and a little dated but has plenty of charm, with quirky lifts and very friendly reception staff.

Our clean twin room had a lovely sea view and all the essentials, although some of the electrics looked a little outdated. We didn’t receive housekeeping during our stay and had to request fresh towels.

The room was extremely hot due to the heating being set high, and although staff kindly provided a fan, it wasn’t possible to adjust the temperature in the room. Opening the window also proved tricky after a pigeon flew in on the first morning. There was also an unpleasant cannabis smell on our floor during part of the stay.

Breakfast offered a good self-service selection, including a full English, though dining room service varied depending on staff.

Overall, despite being a little dated and having a few quirks, the hotel is clean, affordable and well located, making it a solid budget-friendly choice. 🌊🏨

Only 1 night, did the job! Location excellent for theatres. Great view of pier & seafront. Hotel is a little tired & could do with freshening up in all areas, having said that for what,we paid was good.

Peaceful, warm and inviting. With excellent food. Staff, location and cleanliness. The rooms could do with some modernisation. But in stating this I could not fault the cleanliness nor the basic facilities
