Best Western Princes Marine Hotel

We stayed for two nights in room 11 on the first floor which overlooked the tear car park, not a problem as no noise from the sea road. Room was spacious, large bathroom - only complaint was towels were very small and thin but reception soon provided extras. Free parking which was a bonus, the bus stop is right outside the hotel which meant getting into the town was easy. Breakfast was included in our rate - excellent choice. Helpful friendly staff. We would certainly stay here again as it was good value for money. less

I stayed here to do the London to Brighton bike ride the next day - I wanted somewhere to get my head down with an early start. Every time someone used the plumbing in an adjacent rooms, the noise was very loud, the walls did not seem to insulate the sounds of the drunken guests returning at 2am and still singing dancing, and generally being very loud until 5am. Trying to leave the hotel for my ride I was met by one of the night staff who complained to me about the 24 hour bar, noisy guests, an accident at work where he had fallen down some stairs etc etc Probably the worst nights sleep I've had in any hotel, perhaps I was unlucky - I would bring ear plugs as a precaution! less

Stayed here for just one night on a budget but was very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the newly refurbished room allocated on the fifth floor. It was at the rear of the hotel but still enjoy that lovely panoramic views over the South Downs. Although it's a good 40 minutes walk from here to Brighton town centre (or 10 minutes in a taxi), the hotel is in a quiet location literally opposite the Hove seafront - literally two minutes walk across the road. The hotel staff were courteous and attentive and the breakfast was certainly hearty and varied with a number of cooked options including my favourite kippers and poached eggs! They also serve a number of gluten-free options which suited my partner. I wouldn't hesitate to book here again. less

We stayed for a week in a sea view room which was of a good size. We were lucky enough to get one of the limited car parking spaces. We had no intention of using the car as there is a bus stop outside the hotel with a bus every 10 minutes. It might be a problem if you want to use your car as there is no guarantee of a space on your return.The staff were really friendly and obliging. Breakfast was excellent with a great choice. The poached eggs were perfection. We would recommend this hotel . Note to management please straighten your pictures they have been put up uneven and wonky ☺ less

Arrived at the hotel around 14.15 very clean on appearance. Receptionist was friendly (was the only person on so was having to multi task) added breakfast on for the discount rate as on booking.com no option to add. Given twin room, no sea views for twin rooms unfortunately. Very clean and tidy, soft towels in bathroom. Clean bathroom and toilet. Bar is available but is a little expensive. Also restaurant on site we didn't eat here though as only here for a couple of days. Positive 1. Clean facilities 2. Friendly staff 3. Very nice breakfast and well presented and lots to choose from 4. Spacious room with lots of chairs Negative 1. Very few reception staff - so had to multi task 2. No sea view rooms for twin 3. No fridge in room Ideal location for a quick few days as very close to a lovely beach in Hove and a great street of shops and restaurants on Church Street. Would recommend to friends and family for future stays. less
