My husband and I booked the Afton Hotel as a base whist we are exploring Eastbourne with the aim to move there. The location is right opposite the pier and central for most things. Parking along the front can sometimes be difficult but the hotel sells parking permits which costs £1 per day.
All the staff are pleasant and helpful. The lady on reception doubles up as bar staff and works very hard. The young man who took over from her was equally as good and dedicated to his work. The whole hotel is a little dated but is typically Victorian. Nevertheless, the hotel is clean and the décor adds to the charm.
Room overlooked the pier and the sun came flooding in every morning. Plenty of tea and coffee and hot shower. The bed was firm and comfortable.
There is a well stocked bar in the Reception area and lots of comfy sofas and chairs. I would have given 5 stars if the bar had remained open a little later than ten o'clock on Sunday!
Breakfast was perfectly adequate with cereals, full English, toast and tea or coffee.
On checking out we chatted with the owner Hany who was able to give us lots of tips of where to look for property in Eastbourne . Very helpful indeed.
All in all the stay at this hotel was better than I imagined it would be considering what we paid. Will definitely stay there again.

Stayed here for 2nigjts training in the local area. Hotel staff are pleasant and the hotel is dated but acceptable. Good position in the town Opposte the pier. Breakfast was basic but again it was a good value stay. Would stay here again but the on street parking is a pain.

We stayed 2 nights the room was basic the noise from the street and the pier kept us awake but that cant be helped no wifi in room which was disappointing as wanted to use laptop but there was some in lobby. My only complaint was the glasses were tiny wanted to have a drink when came back in eve but was more of a shot glass staff were all friendly . Breakfast was ok little small but is ok was asked if needed anything else ie more tea or toast but got given 3 triangles between 2 of us . Would definitely stay again

Choose seats carefully to avoid restricted views. Great atmosphere inside and very helpful staff. Needs better control of audience in musicals - standing/dancing MUST be stopped!

Excellent venue. Super sound system. Intimate surroundings made for a wonderful show. Belinda Davids truly was "Whitney Houston" and the musicians, dancers and back up singers combined beautifully. The quality of artists for other shows is also first rate. We will most certainly visit again and often.
