Just returned from a relaxing 4 night break at the Burlington. Although this was our first stay at a Bay Hotel we had previously stayed at a Coast & Country Hotel which is part of this same group so knew what to expect. We arrived early afternoon and was quickly checked in and made our way to the room – we didn’t go for any upgrades but the room was as expected, a good size, clean and well presented. Yes it was a bit dated especially the bathroom however we didn’t mind as it was fit for the purpose. The room was cleaned daily with fresh towels etc so no problems on this front. We went half board and went down for our first meal. What is good is the allocation of tables so you had the same one for the duration of your stay. Our table was initially at the far end however a member of staff noticed my wife’s mobility issues and quickly moved us to a table by the entrance – well done Moses.
We initial thought that the meal time timings were restrictive, for example 6.30pm to 7.45pm however it was such a slick routine it worked well. The menu changed daily including a chef special and they were always something on the menu that we both wanted. A special thank you to our waiter Daniel who was continually running around serving and did an excellent job. During our stay the hotel had a Christmas and New Year theme which worked well especially for the older guests. The hotel had evening entertainment which we didn’t take part in however I know that the other residents enjoyed.
A short and relaxing break which served our purposes. Well Done.

Very large and spacious hotel, clean and bright. The Christmas decorations were lovely and really added to the festive feeling. The rooms were modern and bathroom facilities were excellent. The restaurant service was good with a wide variety of food which was always hot, more so the evening meal. The evening entertainment was very good , and Mark the compere was brilliant, only wish the music was not totally reliant on over 70's ballroom dancers. The daily trips were good, pity we did not get to see Hastings. Overall the holiday was very good.

I am glad i booked this through Late rooms . I would not want to pay the £110.00 it would have been . We were in a double room that needed updating , wallpaper coming off the walls.
The good thing about the hotel was its breakfast and the staff.

Recently returned from our stay at this hotel, the staff were very helpful and the room was clean and the only down side was that there was no shower gel or shampoo in the bathroom, other than that the food was good and the service was a little slow at times, overall a very nice hotel, would go back again if going back to Eastbourne

I've not long returned from a Shearing's w/end to Eastbourne, staying at the Burlington Hotel. When we pulled up outside, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised, it makes a great statement, it's a very large, good looking building. You are not disappointed when you enter the doors, the interior décor is great too but now to the rooms, I was in room 125, on the first floor, the room was tastefully furnished with an en-suite bathroom with shower. The food was excellent and the staff couldn't do enough to be of assistance, it'd be a no brainer to say I would be more than happy to re-acquaint myself with this hotel again, another Shearing's winner......

Another lovely weekend away at the Burlington, we had a spacious and spotlessly clean room on the corner with views of both the High Street and seafront. The Christmas decorations were tasteful and very pretty, the Christmas theme of the weekend was very well done & not at all "in your face". The food, the service, the staff and the entertainment were all first class. The inside temperature was a bit overwhelming one night but was soon rectified when guests asked for this to be adjusted. The only disappointment was seeing that some fellow guests found it necessary to "reserve" a table in the ballroom by leaving drinks with a note "not to touch" while they were having dinner. Must be the Burlington equivalent of towels on sunbeds!. All in all a great weekend and excellent value.

Just returned from a fabulous week at the Burlington, Eastbourne. First experience on a Shearings Turkey and Tinsel, not sure what to expect but we weren't disappointed.
The hotel was beautifully decorated up for Christmas, very tastefull and nice. The room was only a basic room (no upgrade) but it was spacious, clean, had matching decor and had been recently refurbished (228) , perfectly adequate for anyone. The meals were good although we were a little disappointed to be seated in the annex so felt apart from the rest of our group.
Our driver, Tony 2 Teds was excellent , knowledgable and funny.
The hotel staff were friendly and cheerful. The entertainer/compare , Mark Snow, is a real asset to the hotel. We thoroughly enjoyed our evenings with him, the best hotel entertainment we have had for a long time.
I would certainly recommend this hotel and holiday.

Enjoyed a pleasant few days at the Burlington organised by Shearings Holidays. Agood sized room with a great view of the promenade and pier perhaps the windows would benefit from some repair as the wind was quite noisy. The hotel was nicely decorated for Christmas, and the entertainment was generally quite good; Mark was great entertainment, just a pity he was only there 2 of the evenings. The food was o.k could have been hotter at some meals. the only down was the 'afternoon Tea' which was a cup of tea and a mince pie - not what we expected. The coach ride was quite long, but not unpleasant.
overall a pleasant holiday
