Fantastic show. The host, Grant Martins, is very funny and keeps the show flowing brilliantly. There are plenty of well know songs, comedy and fabulous dancing with fantastic costumes. The Play That Went Wrong sketch is hilarious. Definitely with seeing 😀

This years Summer Show at this 134year old theatre was just wonderful. The Royal Hippodrome,Is a truly lovely old theatre. The volunteers,who greet you are so happy and helpful. This years Summer Show is called A Right Royal Variety Show. Full of fun and plenty of laughter.
Would recommend it to anyone. It's a must see,if you are visiting Eastbourne.
Only on twice a week, every Tuesday and Wednesday,until beginning of October.
Prices are good,and the bar's are very reasonable to.

We love this little place, we go as often as we can, unfortunately there is never a great deal of interesting things to enjoy at the moment.

We visited with our toddler to see pat a cake baby which was a great show. Staff really friendly and welcoming. Amazing venue. Good sound and facilities. A bit short on leg room, but I'm tall. Places like this need our support, great asset to Eastbourne

Very funny, enjoyed by all, no one checked our tickets so anyone could have walked through, pretty worrying this day and age, need to be a lot more observant, but overall
attentive staff

A one-night stay for a friend’s birthday party being held in the hotel.
The room was dated and tired and unfortunately when we walked in the room it was like a sauna and way too hot for our liking. Luckily, we were able to turn the radiator down but it took all night to cool down to a reasonable level. I had to prop open the sash window using the the length of 4"x 1" which I assumed was there for that purpose!
The room was okay, clean and functional although It did smell a bit musty. That said I did have a good nights’ sleep.
The reception and bar staff were pleasant, professional and polite.
We arrived a half hour before the end of the breakfast sitting and as a consequence the cooked buffet items looked a little tired, so I opted for toast and cereal.
The waiting staff were busily clearing tables after we had seated and unfortunately not very attentive and didn’t ask if we would like more tea or coffee. I had requested more toast, but again due to the table clearing this was forgotten. That said, the young male waiter did apologise as we were leaving.
Overall a low budget hotel in a good location.

The Afton is a small hotel right on the sea front so perfectly situated. This was our third stay at The Afton Hotel, always for a Christmas event. Rooms are good value, clean and have everything you need. The Staff are always friendly and helpful. We have never found anything to complain about - especially for the price we pay!
