The Burlington , as a song says , is a faded rose from days gone by . It obviously needs some major refurbishment work , new lifts , a complete repaint inside and out etc etc etc . However ; it’s sort of charming !!! Those creaky floors . Those awful windows . The lifts !!! OK . It’s old , but we enjoyed our stay here . Great location and sea views too .

Maybe a coat of paint!

We booked this hotel because the rates had gone up considerably in the usual hotel we book. We have stayed in this hotel before, as hotels go it is clean and staff are friendly. The room was ok but the bed/mattress was far too soft and springy. The breakfast was fine with a good assortment of food.

Affordable stay

Room was tired, floors uneven & super squeaky & shower left a lot to be desired but clean & comfortable & affordable for an overnight visit (sea view made up for room condition). Reception staff very polite but LOUIS, front of house at breakfast, was an absolute credit to the hotel considering breakfast was very busy and they appeared to be very understaffed.

Nice authentic hotel over looking the see

Staff very friendly and a good size room at a really good price. Property does need freshening up but you’ve got to look past that due to the age of the building. Good history behind it and nicely stocked little bar. Great location over looking the beach and the pier only a minute away. Would certainly revisit

Bed was uncomfortable and you have to wait to be let in past 11pm. It doesn’t have a 24hr front desk. It’s okay for a one night stay but not for a holiday for comfort

My single room, was larger, than the average one's, that I have experenced in the past, very comfortable bed. and good storage space, also had a bath, which is unusual for a single room. The hotel itself, felt a little run down.

Our experience.

Everything and everyone was amazing. So kind and respectful. NOTHING was to much trouble A few shops open but most closed. Lot's of street renovation going on so most thing's borded up. Temporary pedestrian crossing so difficult to cross the road. The hotel didn't have street appeal as it badly wanted painting. As you will see from the photo the windows need attention as frames rotted and sash windows wouldn't open full as the room was hot with not enough ventilation APART from that all good. Own big car park BUT was charged £6 per day which in my opinion should be free.

Lovely hotel, no its not perfect but its a Victorian building so obviously its old but has great character. The rooms are fairly modern with flat screen tv, comfy beds and up to date bathrooms. We stayed in a sea view twin room had no problems. Staff were happy to help, if you run out of anything in the room just ask and they give it to you. Bar staff lovely and chatty. Drinks and food in bar are good and reasonably priced, i was shocked at how they matched a regular pub, hotels usually rip you off. The breakfast is buffet style and lovely although didn't seem to do fried eggs only scrambled. If i was to come to Eastbourne again i would definitely stay at this hotel.

Stayed previously in a single room which looks nothing like the photos. Room was dirty, mattress old and poor springs, bathroom was not fit for purpose - the sink was so small that every time I bend I would hit my head on the glass shelve above the sink. Shower was rusty and water would leak onto the floor. So asked if I could have a room with a shower cubicle which they kindly upgraded me to a double room. This room was still dirty and stains on the carpet but more spacious, mattress only OK but a better bathroom. I could manage in this room. No servicing of rooms done. Had to extend my stay due work and asked reception if I could have the same room. Initially receptionist said “yes I will do that”. Then next day receptionist called to say I would need to move to another room since I had booked a single room. Advised her that I booked the same as previous and they gave me this better room. She said “OK I will look into it, check and I shall get back to you”. Receptionist never got back to me the previous day and the next day at 11.00am when I had left the hotel, she rang. Told me that I had to move from the room. I told her I have no problems moving room but I would need to travel back to the hotel. She then stated she can move my stuff to the other room for me. So I came back to the hotel to be told by another receptionist my other room was not ready for at least 3 hrs but I had to remove my stuff. LEFT THE HOTEL DISGUSTED, DIDN’T EVEN GET A REFUND FOR 6 NIGHTS NOT USED.

Room was dirty, old mattress with bad springs and bathroom unfit for purpose (sink was so small you would bang your head every time on the glass shelve when bending over, shower rusted and water on the bathroom floor after use).
