This was a wonderful hotel - typical seaside hotel. The staff were very friendly when we booked in and the rooms were clean and pleasant. Plenty of wardrobe and drawer space, tea and coffee making facilities etc.
I could lay on the bed and see the sea which was lovely. My only criticism is that we checked out before reception opened at 8am and there was nowhere to leave the key. I didn't want to leave it on the counter and so I ended up throwing it onto the receptionists chair as it wouldn't be able to be reached by anyone other than staff. We didn't know the night before that we were planning to leave as early as we did and so hadn't asked the previous evening what to do when checking out and reception not open.
All in all it was a lovely hotel in a very handy location - near the seafront and the shopping centres.

Overall, another pleasant stay at the Afton. Clean room, comfy bed and the staff were warm snd welcoming, as always. The only downer was that I'd paid extra for a seaview which was pretty poor compared to the room we had last year at no extra cost and the view was lovely and the room was nicer. It hasn't put me off though and we are back in November to celebrate my birthday, just for one night and no seaview!

My husband and me spent the weekend in Afton Hotel, Eastbourne. It was a lovely experience . We had the room overlooking the sea , on request and it was indeed beautiful. It was such a lovely and lively atmosphere in the evening with music , lights and guests in the reception. Luke, was an excellent host , so eager to help and cheerful! The whole crew in Eastbourne were an exemplary set.
The only small setback would have been the conditions of the toilets as they were refurnished very well.
We would definitely recommend and already planning our next one!
Kudos to Afton Hotel

Nice Hotel. Looks better in the communal areas than it does in the rooms. The rooms need a refurb as they're bit shabby looking.
Nice selection of beers ales, & spirits at Hotel Bar. Good Prices.
Receptionists were very helpful & friendly.
The downside of my stay was, One of the Waitress' s were incredibly rude to me & the cooked breakfast was barely warm.
Overall it wasn't too bad. As I only booked it for a mini break I stayed for 4 nights. It was very cheap to book via Expedia.
The Afton Hotel is nicely located on Eastbourne Seafront just walking distance to the pier & the shops.. Would I stay here again? Probably not. But certainly a mixed experience....

We got a very cheap deal online. £37 For the night. Staff were very friendly and the room was spotlessly clean. Right opposite the pier. You could get a nice sea view if you payed extra. The stairwell to the upstears rooms was in our bedroom so it was quite noisy but you get what you pay for. We enjoyed our stay thank you

Pretty reasonable hotel. We could not get breakfast. Rooms where quite outdated but in general not a bad hotel. Locations is at the foot of the Eastbourne pier wich was very nice.

We loved this place. Would give it 5 stars except for the rather thin walls and the shower was not much more than a trickle. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly. Great position and we could park very close on the road for £1 a day. We'd definitely go back. Fantastic value

We stayed for a 3 night midweek break last minute decision but luckily enough we got a room. Room was large, well furnished and neat & clean. A large ensuite included as well as tea & coffee making facilities. The hotel is in a perfect location. Directly opposite the war memorial & pier. Literally 1 min walk! You have a large selection of restaurants, bar and a thriving town all within a few mins walk as well. All cuisines are catered for from all over the world. If you stayed for a week you could virtually dine in a different country every night. South downs & the seven sisters are a 10min drive, loads of retail parks & supermarkets within a short drive too. Eastbourne seems to be a thriving town, more so than a lot of seaside resorts. Overall a very enjoyable stay. Our only gripe were fairly noisy upstairs neighbours who were up at 6am every morning and the bed was too soft for our tastes but this is just our own preference and bed was in good condition.
