Had a two night stay here was supposed to have bought our mum with us but she didn't come ,as we had initially planned this around her wasn't sure if we'd enjoy it, but we ended up having a great weekend, Our sea view rooms were adequate, so was the food, Our only comments are , yes the hotel could do with bigger lifts, and on the weekend we visited the road to get to the hotel car park there was a diversion in place, so got a bit frustrated driving round to find it then were faced with a chain across it!! One this was sorted we had nice relaxing time

Had a lovely sea view room it had been decorated recently, breakfast had a good selection of cereals and plenty of bread for toast I didn't have a cooked breakfast but there look to be a good selection, there is one thing that had been updated was the porridge it wasn't watery like in February or December

From checking in to leaving the staff were friendly, approachable and professional. The day we checked in is obviously a busy day as several coaches also had arrived. We drove to the hotel but we were still offered help to our room by the busy porters. No hassle getting to our room. Room was tired but spotlessly clean and that is what matters to me.
We had breakfast and evening meal. Breakfast buffet was fresh and plentiful. Dinner was a set menu but very good each night. Vegetables served separately which was really nice. We liked the fact that you didn't have to book for dinner.All the staff were lovely, you can see that they work hard but still had a smile. Thank you Bay Burlington Hotel staff for a lovely relaxing holiday.

I went for a 5 day break. Hotel in great position on sea front near the pier and close to all amenities and bus stops. Short walk into town with excellent variety of shops, banks and restaurants. All staff very friendly although on my first morning one of the waitresses was a bit huffy! Luggage is delivered to room by hardworking porters and housekeeping staff lovely and friendly. My room was immaculate and bed very comfortable. Curtains need to be properly hung at the top and bottom shelf in wardrobe should have been dusted after last visitor. Although only minor points. Floorboards are creaky but added to the ambience for me. The negative point for me was the porridge which was watery and of a 'glue' substance and the fact that my room was above a Cafe Bar which I found very noisy of an evening. I know that Eastbourne has a vibrant atmosphere with its many bars but I personally would not have wanted to stay above one. I did mention the noise but was not offered the chance to move rooms as previous reviewer.

Stayed here for4 nights as part of a Shearings coach holiday midweek break. Great location right on the seafront overlooking the pier and the carpet gardens. Very friendly and helpful staff. We had a recently refurbished room at the back of the hotel which was perfectly fine. The bedroom and the bathroom were however very hot and the window only opens a few inches (presumably for safety). The dining room was also uncomfortably hot. The food itself was good, especially the buffet style breakfast which had delicious bacon, sausages and very fresh eggs. The service at dinner was sometimes a little slow and it would have been nice to have larger portions of vegetables with the evening meals. Bar staff were excellent and the selection of wines was very good. We didn't experience the evening entertainment as this is not our personal taste but the live singers and bingo were very popular with the more senior guests at the hotel. I was disappointed to find that the bathroom towels were not changed, even when I left the used towels in the bath in the usual way. I did ask at reception for a change of towels but this did not happen and I didn't ask a second time. Overall a satisfactory hotel but not one for a special occasion.

This hotel has a great position right opposite the seafront and gardens and very close to the pier. We travelled with a group mostly over 60 years of age.I would say this hotel is more suitable for the older holiday maker. Our room was very clean but also very hot for some reason. We were there for one week and towels were only changed once which I found very unusual.
The restaurant was also very warm and rather crowded. The breakfast was the best meal of the day, but I feel there should have been more choice. The only fruit on offer was grapefruit, The cooked breakfast was very good , if you like that sort of thing every morning.
The evening meals were not very good at all. there seemed to be little planning of meals so therefore there was a lot of waste, The evening entertainment every evening was also very much the same. All in all not a bad holiday but I would not return to the Burlington.

We enjoy staying in the Coast & Country Hotel chain around the UK so we decided to try their sister group, Bay Hotels as they are in different locations. We wanted to explore the new South Downs National Park so Eastbourne was a perfect choice.
A 3 night break, half board, with a sea view, and a parking spot, all for £300!
Our room was well decorated, spacious, with flat screen TV, and 3 single chairs and table, and a view to watch holiday makers on the pier! All very good.
The breakfast was self selection and tasty, whilst the evening meals always had a good choice, and was always presented nicely and served hot. (Unusually, there was always two potato dishes with each meal, any 2 from new potatoes/chips/roast/sliced).
Staff were always cheerful and helpful, plenty of lounge seating, and an opportunity to watch The Euro's in the coffee bar! There was entertainment each night although we skipped the opportunity as we don't play bingo, and enjoyed a promenade walk to The Band Stand to listen to the evening tribute band!
The only negative comment is the lack of lift space, as one lift has a maximum 4 people, whilst 'the coffin' holds 2. The hotel has 4 floors and 20 rooms per floor occupied by many 'over 75,s' who are unable to use the staircase.
Overall, if you don't mind staying in a hotel that needs a little TLC, the break is very good value for money!

Went with Shearings to this hotel on a mid week break. The hotel is large overlooking the sea. Was clean, tidy. Just needed a bit of updating here and there. We were in room 229 which was lovely. We had to pay extra has my husband needs a walk in shower. The food was ok nothing special. Like the new buffet service for breakfast, is alot better.
