Visited afton hotel over bank holidays weekend. Marcus at reception was really nice and friendly. We got the sea view room directly facing the pier. Rooms are little on a smaller size and outdated but bathroom was good. Water pressure was pretty law so showering was not a good experience. Amenities provided were TV Tea coffee milk sugar kettle hairdryer, shower gel soap towel was everything we needed. Lobby area was good to sit and relax with a bar. Restaurant was not available. Overall a good location, polite staff and pocket friendly hotel. Location is very central, hop on hop off bus is right in front of the hotel. Kids enjoyed the stay. Will visit again.

First visit to this hotel. A big hotel. Very out dated. Could be modernised. There is a separate parking at the back for hotel guest which is 6.00 for 1 night. Limited foor menu too. Staff were helpful.

Great location, right opposite the pier.
The hotel itself is not so great. It's possible my views are skewed as I foolishly booked for Saturday night of August bank holiday weekend when everyone descends. It was the best of a bad lot but overpriced at £99.
Staff friendly.
No issues as such.
Bathroom clean.
Bed was comfy and sheets clean.
Rest of the room was dusty and toothpaste/ dubious white marks on the doors.
Wardrobe doors had dark dirt on them I wiped off.
Fag buts littered all over the tiny unusable verandah.
Only one window opened.
Hot.
Noisy. Could hear floorboards upstairs creaking as well as everyone else talking and slamming doors in the hotel.
If you are not fussy and this is cheap then it's worth a stay.
Otherwise it's an overpriced DSS type BnB which is dated and tired.

We stayed here in 2021, we had a lovely, large airy room that had recently been refurbished. There is an excellent bar where the surroundings are very impressive, we enjoyed our Stay and would stay here again.

Stayed for one night only but would have been very happy to have stayed longer. A big old hotel, delightfully shabby in places but everywhere clean and tidy. Great view of famous Carpet Gardens and Pier. Some areas in hotel maybe need a bit of TLC soon but this shouldnt put anyone off staying. Reception staff all very helpful, especially Amelia. My single room on the top floor was spacious, I was delighted to get a seaview, even though I hadn't requested one, ensuite clean and bed very comfy. There was a fan in room which I made good use of during a warm evening. Plenty of electric sockets for charging phone, ipad etc. Bar and sunlounge good and a great place to relax. Self service breakfast excellent, plenty of choice, staff friendly and attentive. Following check-out I was able to store my suitcase in a locked room until my son arrived to collect me. I would very happily return to the Burlington again. Thank you.

This hotel is located on the sea front only a few yards away from the pier and the buses offering round trips via Beachy head, Birling Gap and many more. At a steady walk of about fifteen minutes you can walk to the main shopping area. The hotel provides excellent meals and the bar prices are quite reasonable. There is no air-conditioning in the bedrooms at this hotel but electric fans are provided. Having stayed at this hotel a number of times we prefer the rooms on the back of the hotel which are cooler in high summer. On all of our visits we have found the rooms to quite spacious.

Well what can we say.
Room - had a twin superior, clean, huge and you can open the windows along with a coffee machine.
Hotel rooms are warm but ask for a fan.
Breakfast-hot and very nice choices, bacon exceptional, nice tea and coffee.
Lifts can be dodgy and old but were fixed.
Close to shops, cafe’s and pier.
Thank you to Amelia the receptionist , funny and helpful and Danielle especially who gave up her fan for our room to save us waiting.
Loved our stay of 4 days here and will definately return to this hotel.

A huge hotel right near the pier. Wonderful views. No aircon so the rooms and hallways were hot and stuffy. They put a fan in the room for us though but as it was a big room it wasn't that effective. Delays on check in as rooms weren't ready. Glad there was a place to put our bags, we went for a walk while waiting to for the room to be cleaned. The room was very clean as was the bathroom. The finish in the bathroom was a bit messy but as I said, it was clean. Breakfast selection very good. Lots of guests so I'm pleased they regularly topped items up. Nice bar with great aircon to relax in. We also ate in there, the pie and vegetable curry were lovely. Staff are very busy and on the whole friendly apart from one incident where my husband was snapped at, but he received an apology and a complimentary drink. Dog friendly. Comfortable bed. Good selection of drinks and a kettle and coffee machine in the room. Hairdryer available. Nice room, furniture and decor. Table and chairs for sitting at the window at night looking out to sea. I would visit again.
