Absolutely perfect if h9you can get a sea view room, other than that it is perfectly located footsteps away from the beach and 5 minutes walk into the town centre with lots of late night supermarkets and restaurants very close by. Basic but adequate rooms, cleaners work hard all day every day and the reception staff couldn't be more helpful if they tried. Great budget hotel if you are looking for a cheap getaway. Shop about for the price too.. I found Expedia to be the best 🌟

Nice, big and clean room but under my side of the bed there was one of those fragrance sprays, spraying stink every 15-20 minutes which woke me up in the middle of the night accompanied with sound of the running water from the storm outside which along with my husband we decided was coming straight into the room though the single glazed window.
Last but not least NO internet in the room.

Rooms are good sized and clean, but there's no wifi anywhere in the hotel, windows are single-glazed, and there's lots of noise coming in from outside and from adjacent rooms

clean room, friendly staff, maybe a few things could be better but very nice place to stay, parking is difficult so be prepared to walk.

I will not be pointing out that the hotel needs to be a bit more modern, because it is not and it is pointless. Our room was freshly painted, but carpet was old and dusty, maintained clean as much as possible. Room decent size, we asked for a change, because we were put in the back room with depressing view. The staff was amazing and they changed the room for us. There is always fresh towels and room cleaned if you wish, daily. The housekeeping lady is very good, does her job amazingly well. She is considerate as well. There is not much activities going on in the bar or restaurant now due to the remaining of covid rules. Room needs a fan on hot summer days. It can be easily done. There is also a room for a small fridge, which would be amazing to store water and other drinks. There is a good pressure shower, but taps in the wash basin need maintenance ( room 111). Overall, our stay was pleasant, we did not stay much in the hotel, only at night. Location is great- just opposite the Pier. I would come back within the same price range ( max £60 per night).

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.

Good place as its prices are really cheap. Good and flexible service all around. Very close to center and the sea.

Lovely position right by the pier. Room was big enough for the three of us to be comfortable. Staff were very helpful even if the lady at breakfast was rushed off her feet, she did well to keep up. We did end up waiting for the lift a couple of times but that was breakfast time and we were in the basement breakfast room. The cost was amazingly cheap and we expected the hotel to be so too but it was a very pleasant surprise and we enjoyed our stay very much.

Fairly cheap and cheerful in an excellent location. Dreadful shower though (very poor pressure) and our room was extremely dated decor wise with very thin walls. Friendly staff, so overall a positive experience but could have been slightly better.

The rooms are very basic with ill fitted windows and a pathetic shower. Beds were comfortable enough and there was tea and coffee in the rooms. About what you expect for £35 a night. The staff made up for the mediocre rooms. Very friendly and the beat full breakfast I've had in an age! Parking is limited in the roads around the hotel and you can buy a permit for £1 from the hotel. Again staff very helpful about this

Pleasant staff, great location and reasonably priced. Rooms were clean and sufficient for my needs as a business traveler and perhaps what I should expect from two star hotel.
A slight negative in that my TV wouldn't switch on which I solved by asking for some new batteries for the controller at reception. This was taken care of straight away and these things happen.
One thing that does need addressing is the shower and the plumbing. My shower wasn't any where near powerful enough and this might be due to the shower head needing replacing or the water pressure to that room not being good enough. This was raised at reception and maintenance were due to visit but that didn't happen. The water in the shower tray also took a good while to drain away so the hotel do need to take a look at the plumbing. I think I was in room 312.
Other than that a good experience and I would stay there again for the next phase of my business trip this year.

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 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

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....

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!

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.

Good location. Friendly staff. Clean room. Plenty of restaurants around. However thin wall and can hear noises from the next room and corridor. Housekeeping can be improved, as the bins weren't cleaned the next day and fresh towels weren't resupplied.
