The hotel is conveniently situated overlooking the seafront .
Whilst the hotel is perfectly comfortable and the rooms well furnished it is let down by the food .
The quality of the breakfast for the price is disappointing .
The service by the staff was good and they were helpful at all times .

Thanks to Neil and his team for making my Mum's 70th birthday afternoon tea this weekend so special. The service was great as always, and the tea was gorgeous. I think your creme de menthe cake is the best ever! Would highly recommend this hotel to everyone

Stayed here for one night and was very impressed. A couple of minus points - no aircon (but understandable in an old building) and limited parking. Otherwise everything was great. We received old fashioned courtesy and hospitality. On Saturday there was a masonic Ladies night in the restaurant but they still served food in the conservatory area and although the staff must have been very busy, the food was served in a reasonable time and the restaurant staff were very efficient. Also the included breakfast the next morning was excellent.
The room was comfortable with more storage than you would find in a lot of hotels and the bathroom looked like it had been recently refurbished.
Would stay there again.

Without doubt the most reliably good hotel in the area. The staff are all always really polite, friendly and helpful. Good bar to pop in, sit overlooking the sea or outside on a fine day. Good bar food, great restaurant, we especially like the Sunday jazz lunches.

nearly 50 of us visited as part of a bowls tour. We are not used to service and food of this quality and loved the place. Nothing was too much trouble for the very profesional staff. The rooms were very well presented and the views stunning. Thank you to Claire and her team, the food being the special mention, wow, we hope to visit again in the future. Plessey Bowls on Tour.

Spent four days at the Langham Hotel as a member of a bowls club tour from 16th to 19th September inclusive.. The hotel was faultless. Our room had every facility, was clean and the beds out of this world. Dining room was attractive and presentable; the food came up to and beyond expectations. In fact,of 40 persons in our group, I heard not one complaint but many praised the Langham. As one would hope and expect, the staff were helpful, made one feel welcome and were most professional. I will make this hotel the first port of call when I next visit Eastbourne. Problem might be, that if you all go will there be room for me next time?

Stayed for 3 nights as part of a touring bowls tour .
There were 47 + of us in our party and we can be a little demanding at meal times but the service staff and chef rose to our challenges.
Nothing was too much for us to request.
We stayed in a room at the rear of the hotel , which was quiet and pleasantly decorated . All staff were very helpful and if you are not on a diet , do try the Grand Cream Teas - to die for !
Would highly recommend the Langham and look forward to staying here again .Well done all the staff at this lovely hotel .

My mother and I stayed a night. We had a room with sea views and ate in the Conservatory restaurant also with sea views.
Very comfy hotel. Easy parking outside ad virtually on the beach. Thoroughly recommend.

Stayed her for 4 nights with a bowls party of 35. The food and waitress service was absolutely superb. The location is excellent. The only draw back was the size of the rooms. The single and twin rooms are very small and at the back/side of the hotel. This however did not spoil our trip at all, as the food, cleanliness and service made up for it.

Its like a traditional old Victorian seaside hotel, but very well maintained and sympathetically modernised - so plenty of old Victorian charm but also upto date clean and modern rooms, facilities and surroundings. The rooms and restaurants could get a little warm - no air con but there are fans and the windows in the rooms open. Food was good, some decent beers and service was excellent. There was parking space arrangements but its a walk away so drop your bags off first. Location is great right opposite the beach and a 5-10 minute walk to the pier.

A fantastic room. a superb seaview and wonderfully comfortable bed. Unlike so many hotels, the windows open fully so we were able to control the temperature. The room was very quiet and staff respectful of our desire not to be disturbed too early in the morning.
The breakfast was excellent and the service second to none, we were served by a very attentive young lady for whom nothing was any bother.
The bar also provided very good service.

The only thing which could be improved upon is the provision of a room service menu and the serving of the bar menu until later: 9pm would be a more convenient time.

Very impressed with endeavours by staff to please; professional attitudes and attention to detail. I have no recommendation in recommending to others. Particularly pleased with personal service at breakfast.

Single room on east side of hotel but got view of the sea. Surprised that the bedding consisted of blankets and sheets not duvet etc. Net curtain fell off the window when I touched it so gave it to fellow who came to give me teabags as it needed a wash. Bathroom ok and could see an attempt had been made to renovate it but the shower curtain could do with being replaced and the flooring poss original 1950? You don't want to be bigger than a size 14 to use the toilet. The breakfast however was waiter service (no rushing for the cereal and juice etc here) and well presented. This is a hotel and as such reception, lounges,restaurant and bar were very pleasant with outside terraces overlooking the beach. Staff efficient and do the hotel credit just wish us solo travellers got a better deal as we do pay a premium.

We stayed one night mid-week at this hotel .
Reception staff most helpful and waiting staff at breakfast were so pleasant.
Comfortable bed with tea/coffee making and tv.
Only draw back was the lack of parking - you have to find a spot in the side roads which is almost impossible if you arrive late or been out late.

Just spent three nights at this great hotel. Our room was lovely with a sea facing view (we stayed in the Cuckmere Room) was a bit more expensive, but well worth it. We had a lovely afternoon tea, and dinner in the restaurant, all very nice.

My only small problem was the guy on the front desk, he wasn't very welcoming and one night we came in the main door and he didn't even look up, not very professional in my mind, but the rest of the staff were all very friendly.

Would definitely go back again.

Lovely hotel in good position on the sea front. We booked a room overlooking the sea for a long weekend to celebrate our Wedding Anniversary; it was worth the supplement.
The room (116) was a good size with a lovely bathroom. Staff were very friendly and helpful, breakfast was beautifully cooked to individual requests. We had dinner in the restaurant on one of our nights and again the food and service was lovely. We would definitely recommend the hotel to friends and family and will return.

We had room 230 which is a superior room and I felt that at £195 for the room at B&B rate ....it was expensive. Perhaps we could have had a better deal by booking with the hotel directly? (We used booking.com.) the room was clean and the bed wonderfully comfy. There was no bath....only a shower. The long corridors to get to the room seemed to make the place lack personality. The staff we met were helpful and professional. Parking needs to be booked in advance and is £7.00 per day. There are only about 10 or 11 spaces on site. The breakfast was plentiful and promptly served. There is no usual buffet...the staff bring everything to you. I had expected my room to have a balcony but it had a large bay window instead. The windows opened wide and we could hear the sea wonderfully, but also the very busy sea front road! Lots of loud motorbikes. I think I'd probably book a smaller more personal hotel if I come to Eastbourne again.

Just extended our stay as such a nice room overlooking the sea. Avoid 103 - unfeasibly small WC facilities. Breakfast beautifully cooked and plentiful. Haddock or salmon - both good and it was a job to eat it all, but I managed !. Service excellent - and thoroughly recommend this hotel..

My husband booked us in for the Bank Holiday, we arrived and were able to check in straightaway.
Our room was incredibly clean, plenty space to hang and store clothes, I counted 9 drawers and a wardrobe.
We only had a shower in the en-suite but it was lovely and quality toiletries were supplied.
The towels were clean and fresh too.
The room was rather small and got very warm but at least the window opened fully to allow air in.
We ordered room service which arrived promptly and was wonderful and very reasonably priced.
We were able to find a space in the conservatory the next morning overlooking the sea, how pretty.
Breakfast took a while to be served but was really fresh and tasty, the staff were so very polite and helpful.
Upon check out we were offered water to take on our journey, a thoughtful offering.

Later on the next day, after check out, we went back for more snacks .. perfect :)

I would go back, I would recommend this hotel. We both had a wonderful stay here, thank you so much.

Stayed on a Friday night. Room nice, but basic, bathroom very nice. Reception staff were helpful, but forgot to order the taxi we asked for, delaying our start on Saturday. Restaurant, food ok, but atmosphere wasn't to our liking.

Room very good. Complimentary Sherry and Port and bottled water. Had previously contacted Hotel to ensure they could cater for Gluten Free diet and they said they could. Unfortunately NO Gluten Free sausage provided with cooked breakfast. So their way of being able to cater for me is by not supplying something?! I ended up buying my own sausages from a convenience store a 5 minute walk away and getting them cooked for me. A bit more effort required! I thought the cooked breakfast was a bit small anyway with only 1 sausage, 1 piece of bacon, half a tomato and the smallest portion of mushrooms and no offer of further toast being offered!

We had a very pleasant time. The room was reasonably sized, comfortable and recently refurbished. We were pleased to have the fan provided in the room. The staff were all courteous and helpful. The restaurant was excellent - both choice, food and service.
