The Afton Hotel
Latest Reviews
After a horrible experience at a nearby hotel, I popped into the Afton Hotel, located right next door to the said horrible hotel.
I was pleasantly surprised by the kindness and professionalism of the gentleman and lady at the reception, who were extremely sympathetic to my situation and offered me one of their available twin rooms with a bath at a very reasonable rate.
Their compassion really turned my day around 🥺
The room itself, while a bit dated, was far more spacious than I expected and even had a sea view.
It was clean and comfortable, with a TV, tea-making facilities, and basic toiletries provided.
The lack of WiFi in the room was a minor downside, but it didn’t detract much from the overall experience.
One of the highlights of the hotel was the pub, which were always occupied by mature gents & ladies, and serves reasonably priced drinks—a refreshing pint of cider was just what I needed after the stress of the whole experience at the start of my Eastbourne trip.
If you’re looking for a friendly, comfortable place to stay in Eastbourne, I highly recommend the Afton Hotel.
It’s not the most modern hotel, but the exceptionally kind and warm hosts and cosy atmosphere more than make up for it.

Lovely hosts, but no breakfasts available. There's a lift in the building as we were on the 3rd floor. Basic hotel with a large lounge area and TV.

Nice little hotel close to everything. Like many hotels by the sea, could do with some cash to bring it back to life.

Just spent three very pleasant nights at the Afton hotel, the room was spacious and clean, the people were nice and very helpful - it's situated in a very good position directly opposite the pier and yet is very quiet at night, we slept well. We'll definitely stay again next time we're in the area.

Great value for money! Perfect location and I was positively surprised by the place. For £40 for 2 I wasn't expecting much, we had a seaview and the bed was fairly comfortable.
Perhaps more pillows would be good.
If I'm in Eastbourne again I'll be staying here!

I was very positively surprised - for a two-star hotel, it is a very pleasant place!The hotel is located right on the pier, close to the city centre and near Beachy Head. Very friendly staff. Dog friendly hotel and great location for walking. We (me and my dog) will definitely come back here!

My friend and I appreciated the receptionist's positive attitude. He was courteous, knowledgeable and available.
Rooms were clean, tidy and well ventilated.
We valued that our belongings could be looked after even after a check-out whilst we went for a walk in the nature.
Well appreciated stay and we'll definitely come back.

Fantastic quiet little hotel.
I have just had a weekend here with a coach group and the staff here make the hotel. The food is lovely for a 2 star hotel,the staff are helpfull kind and a very good laugh. Nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff here. I would stay here over and over again in a heartbeat.
Great value and perfect seafront location even though Eastbourne has become a bit of a dive in recent years which is a shame.

Great location, 30sec walking to the beach and pier, lot of good eating places nearby.
But the mattresses in the family room we were in really needs to be changed as oon as possible.
The staff is very helpful.

My sister and I stayed here for 5 days. We had a balcony and sea front view. We loved it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The lady cleaning the rooms was wonderful. Thanks to you all. I would definitely stay here again. I only have one fault and that is there was no fridge. A fridge is badly needed especially in summer.

Tiny shower room, no pressure to the shower. Room needed a fan to cool it. Tea tray lacked biscuits.

Had a good stay here. It was last minute and they were friendly and catered our needs. They also have some dog friendly rooms which was nice and comfortable.
The hotel could do with a facelift but we found it a nice little place to stay. There wasn't a lot of parking.
