Recently returned from a 5 day break at the Burlington. No complaints about the hotel. Rooms comfortable and warm and excellently situated on the sea front near the Pier. Only a short walk to the town centre and transport. Staff were great and the food really nice, and hot !!. The only complaint was the Driver. He was arrogant, rude, unhelpful and seemed to have less local knowledge than we did. I'm not naming names but I'm sure that the other passengers will know who I'm talking about by my description. Shame. Spoiled an otherwise perfect break !!

Visited this hotel with Shearings 5 day deal many times. Always been highly satisfied. The one thing I cannot understand is the high drinks price at the bar. A captive audience are Sat there watching entertainment with no drinks in front of them. On the free drinks night there are long queues at the bar. This proves they would all have drinks if the prices were right. Come on Shearings smaller profits bigger turnover is the key to good business.

Hotel is handily placed for going to the town.,a walk along the pier or the seafront. Anyone who is fit can walk past Lifeboat shop and martello tower and get to Beachy Head.. In the opposite direction the Redoubt is close. Buses are close and Brighton is just over 1 hr away, Sovereign harbour is also close by bus.

Arrived here Friday teatime on a national holidays trip, never been to Eastbourne before. Very quick check in, room on third floor, the smallest of the lifts was very claustrophobic. Room clean and modern but very cold, bed very comfortable, but had to sleep with my dressing gown on two nights due to the room being cold 😱😱 Breakfast was good, loved the porridge, the fried breakfast was a little greasy for my liking, had to queue for the toaster. Evening meal wasn’t as good in my opinion due to the choices you were given. The staff were lovely except for the women in charge of the dining room (dark hair in a pony tail) she was so ignorant and needs lessons in customer service. We chose to either go out on a night or one of the nights took our drinks to our room as wasn’t right keen on the in house entertainment. The hotel is in a prime position on the promenade close to the pier which was a bonus. Would visit Eastbourne again sometime in the future, would even consider staying at this hotel again

The Burlington is a typical grand seaside hotel with lots of Victorian features and an on going refurbishment.
Our standard twin room on the third floor had been partly refurbished with new double glazed windows and a new bathroom, the room was large but was cold due to the radiator being under the bay window which did not allow the heat into the room, although on hindsight I now wish I had asked for a portable heater to be put in our room, this did not seem to be a problem for most of the people we spoke too who said their rooms were too hot so I suppose it’s the luck of the draw, but the beds were comfortable and the housekeeping was good.
As with other Shearings hotels we have been too the food was very good always a good choice and hot, and the 6-15 & 7-15 sittings that they operate worked very well with service being very good and served by very efficient staff.
Entertainment was very good with the usual bingo and quiz made hilarious by Mark who pulled in a large crowd every night, I’m still laughing now at his bingo calling.
It was our first time to Eastbourne but if we return we would certainly stay at the Burlington again although if it was in winter would be sure to ask for a warm room.

Good sized warm room with the usual furnishings, though the wardrobe was tiny and there are no wall hooks on which to hang outdoor clothing. Well located ( easy walking distance to shops ) with view of the sea and pier but be aware there is no double glazing so there is some road noise.
We found the restaurant to be a cheerless place with the tables in long institutionalised lines. The starters and dessert choices were good but the mains very samey with breadcrumb coated meat and fish.
Happy with the other public rooms and staff friendly and helpful.

The hotel I visit quite often so very friendly and amazing value for money.
Mark the host is so well known amongst the visitors who all seem to return quite as I do.
Ivina a lady who is a member of staff was so helpful on my last visit . Four days of fun is how I think of it and will be returning soon .

We spent a long weekend at the Bay Burlington and was well impressed with all the lovely staff.The food was very good at both breakfast and evening meal and the rooms were nice and warm and the beds were comfortable.This was our fist stay at this hotel but it certainly won’t be our last.Thanks to all the staff for a lovely pleasant stay.

Another fine stay thanks to all the very pleasant and helpful staff. Our excellent refurbished 'Standard' room has various extra facilities now, such as usb points by the bedside units. Superb shower room, hardly looked as if it had been used. Picked up the free fast wifi up on the 2nd floor too now, not just downstairs. Every time we go, some further improvements have taken place. New timings for dining sittings worked extremely smoothly. All meals were enjoyed. Entertainment is yes, entertaining, especially from Mark the Spark! Thanks due to one and all.

Never been to Eastbourne before. Arrived at this seafront hotel opposite the Pier and wow what a grand old building. Only a short stroll from the Pier and promenade and a few minutes walk into town. Used by lots of coach companies so a lot of middle to old age clientele.
The rooms have been refurbished and good beds and bathrooms have made the trip very comfortable. The food was of a good quality and always felt full . Bar staff were great and always friendly which is the norm amongst all the hotel's staff. Entertainment was great with bingo,quiz and dancing on most nights . Mark the compere is a legend....so much fun he is always smiling and getting everyone to join in. Visiting cabaret too is well worth watching. Will definitely be back in the future.

Good hotel.... Staff really friendly and attentive.... Rooms dated and a tad cold.... Food lovely.... One thing to look at though.... When we booked we thought what a great deal(and it is) ..... If your happy with being with older generation then you'll enjoy it.... We was the youngest there and I'm mid 40s..... Unknown to us this was a shearings hotel..... Great location.... Good views... Good shopping.....so no complaints.... As always.... Holidays are what you make them. X

Nice hotel very close to sea shore. Also close to the pier. Friendly staff. Hotel corridors could do with refreshing and repaint. But the rooms are spacious and very comfortable.

Great seafront position overlooking Eastbourne Pier. Ignore it's obvious decay and revel in it's past splendour and location.

Never having been to Eastbourne I was really pleased with the Bay Burlington Hotel,the facilities were good.Very good position near the pier and bus stops for getting around.All the staff were very helpful the rooms were nice,and entertainment was good.If I have one niggle I did think the price of the alcoholic drinks were a bit expensive.
