Langham Hotel
Latest Reviews
We have never stayed in an Eastbourne hotel before and were well satisfied by our stay at the Langham. Our room was small and looked out at the back but then we hadn't asked for seaview. Our bedroom was hot all the time and the only way to keep it cool was to have the window always open. That didn't matter because the back of the hotel is quiet. All the staff - front desk, restaurant, bar - went out of their way to be pleasant and helpful. Our three course dinner in the hotel was thoroughly wholesome and well priced. Unusually breakfast was served throughout by the restaurant staff.- not a buffet breakfast. Because the hotel was busy during our stay that meant breakfast was rather slow but there was nothing wrong with the full English I chose. The hotel is a long way east of the centre of Eastbourne and the nearest bus stop a short walk away.

This year was my 5th Ladies weekend at the Langham and as with every year it has been lovely. We have always had see view rooms and they are amazing, very modern and welcoming. All the staff are lovely and very friendly. I know the hotel is still in the process of being done up and so there are some rooms that are still waiting updating, however like I say I have always been lucky and got a new room which are just lovely! As i'm sure the rest will be when finished. The sea view is also amazing, We could lie in bed and see the sea. The dinners are always very good however the only down fall I have ever found with the hotel is the breakfast, the quality compared to that of the dinners is very different.
Would definitely recommend .

The cuisine at this hotel is of the highest standard. We would not stay at another hotel in Eastbourne although we have in the past frequented many other hotels in the town. It is well managed by a superb team and every effort is made to make your stay enjoyable. The staff are friendly and attentive and nothing is too much trouble for them. It is as good as many hotels in London and better than most.

We enjoyed this hotel on the waterfront. Deluxe room was large and in very good shape.Very good and friendly service at the front desk and in the restaurant. Bar staff still on learning curve.
Ideal location on the beach. Perfect if you are a runner, you can run for miles and enjoy beautiful views.

We held a Gala dinner on the Saturday and there was another function elsewhere in the Hotel .There were more than enough staff to cope and the food was excellent . well done all the staff. You could not fault the hotel for cleanliness and comfort and it is in a good position right on the sea front. I would have no hesitation in going back again ( but I have now stayed there three times this year)

We stayed over a long-weekend (Friday-Sunday). Food was excellent, staff very helpful and friendly.
Our bedroom even had a 4 Poster with canopy. Only negative was that lighting in the bedroom was therefore not so good as canopy blocked the electric light! However during the day the views over the sea and towards the pier more than made up for it.
Thoroughly recommended.

Family run hotel who's owners and staff really go out of their way to welcome and ensure a comfortable relaxing stay. Nothing is too much trouble. In short comfortable beds, great food, relaxing surroundings, accommodating staff, there are numerous special events and entertainments that are available if you so wish, could not ask for more. Would recommend with confidence.

We were a party of 5 booked to stay for one night in order to celebrate our 92 year old grandmother's birthday.
Having dropped off a couple of the party we parked in a local street for free.
We were checked in quickly and efficiently and took the lift to our comfortable room.
Grandma was impressed by how warm her room was, (not at all like previous visits to Eastbourne in the 1970's) although it was a little too warm for me.
We had a few drinks in the bar and a lovely dinner in the restaurant, service very good in both.
Breakfast was also excellent with loads of choice and more very attentive service.
I enjoyed the eclectic selection of original art on display throughout the public areas.
All in all a very pleasant and relaxing time was had by the entire party and we particularly enjoyed the impromptu "conga" gleefully undertaken by members of the visiting "Ulster society" which snaked out the door of the bar along the hotel front and back in through reception.
(it took some persuasion to stop Granma joining in and she still called me a spoilsport)

I had the good fortune to stay at this hotel earlier this year when I organised a group visit for people from Europe. Enjoying the experience so much that I brought another group for a reunion weekend from the 20th September 2013. One again this hotel exceeded our expectations for friendless, comfort, food etc. Although the hotel had other groups (larger than mine of 32) staying there; the attention to detail by Neil and Wendy's staff was first class. From taking bags up to rooms upon arrival to supplying wheelchairs etc it was 'service with a smile' all the way.
I would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to one and all. In fact I hope I can find another group to bring here soon.

The Langham Hotel was fantastic! They put a lot of hard work into helping Essex Bowls Club have a very successful and enjoyable time in Eastbourne. The food and general ambience was excellent. Everyone was very impressed by the final presentation night dinner of 5 courses and the lovely menu card they produced.
We will definitely be booking another trip back!

As the Langham was fully booked, we visited the hotel for our evening meal.
We were so impressed with the food,the service,and the attention to detail we booked again for another evening.
We were not disappointed for although the main restaurant was full with a large coach party, our service in The Conservatory Restaurant was exemplary.
We are planning to visit Eastbourne again and return to your sample your excellent cuisine.

Just back home after a 4 night break in Eastbourne at the Langham Hotel. What a lovely
surprise - real people and real food. We were part of a group of 32 and the hotel staff
treated us all as individuals and catered to our every need. The staff have evidently
been very well trained and work as a real friendly team. The chef and his staff are
to be complimented for being able to deal with so many people - there were other
groups staying - so efficiently and presentation was excellent. We will definitely
return. Our thanks to all the A Team at the Langham and we wish them all
success.

If you're looking for a Wedding Venue then don't waste your time looking anywhere else. The whole experience was fantastic for us. Simon the General Manager looked after us every step of the way and we are not easy to please ! All of the staff are very efficient, friendly and fun, the food at the wedding breakfast was incredible quality, piping hot and as good if not better than any restaurant I've been to. The rooms are all very clean, spacious and enjoy fantastic views across the channel. Also very good value !

At the Langham Hotel, you are made to feel special as you walk over the threshold. The reception staff are courteous and friendly, the restaurant offers excellent meals, with a daily changing menu and efficient friendly staff. The room was beautifully furnished with superb bathroom, its worth the supplement for a room with a seaview.

From the moment we arrived the staff were excellent, polite & helpful. The 3rd floor bedroom had a firm bed that gave us two good nights sleep, great sea views with plenty of room & big enough en-suit, thought the shower cubicle was a tad small. Bar snacks were varied, presented nicely and not over priced. Breakfast ! at last a hotel that cooks one to order, & doesn't leave food stewing under hot lamps, loads of polite staff. The evening meals were with a very large party that the restaurant coped with superbly. We found street parking very close but car parking was a bit away, though one could unload outside the hotel easily. If we go to Eastbourne again, we will stay here. Rob & Joy

We arrived on 19th august for a summer break of 6 nights. We have stayed here on a number of occasions before and have always found the hotel to be excellent, therefore that was the reason to come back and stay for a week. from the moment of entering the entrance the staff were very courteous and helpful. we were shown to our 2nd floor sea view room. Great view. we had a small problem with the bathroom window, which was not sorted on the first day, I mentioned the problem again the next day, and we were promptly moved to another room on the 3rd floor, Lovely room with comfy bed and superb shower room. Lounge and bar area's are very comfortable. Conservatory Restaurant has a great position on the seafront and also has a very high standard of food and service. Parking can be a problem in nearly all seaside resorts, but " Langhams" have facility's just around the corner. All in all... a lovely place to stay!

Over the uk bank holiday we stayed at the Langham with relatives and had a reasonable time. There were some issues with our room which I mentioned to the hotel. Due to these comments when we returned a week later the owners (Neil and Wendy) had taken the time to review my comments and correct not one or two but every issue I had mentioned in full. Neil then met with us personally before we left, showing a real dedication to ensuring a guest leaves feeling special.
I highly recommend anyone looking for a relaxing stay of real quality stay at the Langham. Our return truly gave us faith that there are still some managers/owners out there that do care and do listen. Would certainly return again in faith that the team there would make us feel special.

I booked a sea view room at the hotel through Booking.com several weeks before the actual stay. When my husband and I arrived at the hotel, we were informed that they had not received any notification from Booking.com of our reservation. They were extremely busy as it was the lead up to the bank holiday weekend but to our surprise they arranged for us to stay for 2 nights in a sea view room and then the remaining 2 nights in a non sea view. They were most apologetic which was unnecessary as the fault lay completely with Booking.com.
Now on to our stay. From the minute we walked into the hotel we felt the atmosphere to be very relaxed. The staff were amazing. We were offered assistance to take our bags to our room and nothing was too much trouble.
Our first two nights were spent in a family room which while spotless with wonderful views did have rather dated furniture and fittings. Please don't think this is reflective of the hotel. When we moved into the other room for the last 2 days it was the epitome of chic. The decoration in the hotel overall is one of understated elegance whilst at the same time being comfortable and relaxing.
Meals could be taken in the dining room or the conservatory and in both the service was nothing short of outstanding. We also had some very delicious bar meals in the bar area and outside on the terrace. My personal favourites were the club sandwich (the best anywhere) and the cream tea.
The owner obviously has a very well managed hotel. The staff are the jewels in his crown and he is to be commended on them. On speaking to one of the lovely girls that served us we were told that she had been at the hotel 9 years. This to me sums it up.
We have already booked to return in October.

Stayed 2 nights at The Langham over August Bank Holiday weekend with my Mum to celebrate her 77th birthday.
Nothing is too much trouble for everyone at The Langham and you are made to feel very welcome by each and every member of staff.
The food was unbelievable - couldn't fault breakfast, lunch or dinner!!!
Mum's lunch on the day of her birthday was made even more special by receiving a birthday cake and glass of wine with compliments from the Hotel and the jazz band played happy birthday to Mum and another lady who was celebrating - fantastic - made Mum feel very special indeed!
My Sister had arranged for balloons, champagne, flowers and chocolates to be delivered to the hotel (she lives in Venezuela) and these were all placed on a side table next to our table at the jazz lunch on the Sunday.
All in all excellent - couldn't fault it and would definitely recommend the hotel not only for its rooms but also for the amazingly great food and extra special staff - thank you to all at The Langham you made our weekend into a wonderful weekend!!!
