Just come back from a five night break at the Burlington Hotel. Hotel is in a good location opposite the pier, a short walk from some excellent restaurants and with a great view of the sea. Breakfasts are good and the staff are really helpful. We stayed in room 119 which was spotless, had a sea view and was very spacious. I cannot see why people give this hotel such bad reviews as it is excellent for how much they charge.

The room we were allocated (111) was in a disgusting state with rotten windows and needed a complete refurbishment. The only way to get air in the room was to prop up a sash eindow with a piece of wood (supplied). After complaining to reception we were allocated another room (114) the following day which means we paid for a night in a hovel. The room should never have been given to us.
The whole place is being decorated as it is in a very sad condition. The location is excellent although a long way from the Marina which is a must visit.
Holiday spoilt by the original room.
Breakfast ok but disorganised.

We have used the Burlington on a self-drive basis many times over the years as we found it perfectly acceptable at the price. Now at last it is undergoing rapid refurbishment and redecoration under new management. We certainly had no complaints whatsoever during our four days. The quality of the food and the presentation of it is far superior to what is was in 2019. Staffing is naturally proving to be a bit of a problem under current circumstances but the young people especially were doing their best as they progressed along their early learning curve.

Not the greatest hotel but did most things and the important things well. It would be a 7 out of 10. The hotel conforms to the general description of a once great hotel that sometimes struggles but still gets the basics right.
Check in was fast they encourage on-line check in in advance. The staff were friendly and professional in all areas. The room was spacious and light with a comfy bed with plenty of wardrobe space. You are warned on arrival about staffing issues that may mean room service is lacking. Our room at the back was noisy at the weekend. The next street has an entertainment stage blasting out live music. Great if you like Elvis/Adele covers!
Breakfast is very efficient with plenty of choices. Thank God uni's are off for the Summer as I'm not sure that breakfast would happen due to lack of staff. The breakfast room displays a touch of Victorian glamour. The bar area is large but can have its tone lowered by the odd drunk local lowering the tone.
The location is great, right by the pier and the front facade is well maintained and rather grand. However, the general air of faded grandeur prevails in a lot of areas, particularly the lifts. (Take the stairs as the staircase is impressive).
Would not be that enthusiastic with the prospect
Of a return at £100 a night for a weekend double but overall had a good stay here.

Our room was small with a small double bed. They should give us at least a double bed.
Our room wasn’t spacious and renovation was required. Decoration was tacky and windows were in very bad condition, who couldn’t stop the noise from the road.
Also bathroom was tiny in bad condition too.
I would say the whole hotel needs renovation.
On the positive side was the breakfast who was rich in choices and tasty.

Great couple of nights stay @ the Burlington, despite reading some bad reviews. Ignore what you may have read & go see for yourself l. Had 2 lovely waitresses over the weekend, Sue & Tracy who couldn’t have done more to make our time there special. Both polite & very accommodating. Breakfast included was great too, nothing was too much trouble.

My wife and I have been coming to this lovely old hotel for a number of years. We were apprehensive about returning due to an ownership change, but our week’s holiday exceeded our expectations. Our superb bedroom with a partial sea view was clean, comfortable and well equipped. The dining experience for our half board stay had improved significantly. The customer service, quality and variety of the meals, both for breakfast and dinner, were outstanding. This improvement in the level of standards has been achieved by the hard work of the new manager Wayne and his dedicated team. We were also very grateful to the dedicated senior receptionist Ivonne, who helped us with our pre-holiday booking advice and support throughout our stay. Her professional and friendly customer service team included Ricci, who provided us with additional help during our stay.

I stayed a week at the hotel and the staff were fantastic. DANIELLE IN THE bar always went that extra mile, and the other staff always helpful with a smile. Sue in the restaurant and all her work buddies every day made us feel welcome, giving 5 star service. The food was lovley, and the rooms were comfortable. I would stay there again for sure. Thanks to all the staff at the Burlington Eastbourne for making our stay a very enjoyable experience.
