Eastbourne out of season
Very friendly and welcoming host. The room was clean as were the bedding and towels. Room needed a bit of minor attention /cosmetic work but this did not detract from overall enjoyment of stay. Slept like a log ! The refreshment facilities were excellent and even offered use of dining room out of hrs for our own use if we needed. Good choice of breakfast ,cooked and cereals etc. The hotel also had a lounge available which added to the overall space for our use. Great location 10mins from railway station and 5 from the beach. we would stay here again !
Nice property with friendly staff, owners and dog, close to the seafront.

The room is spacious and set up perfectly for our family with two children. My youngest especially loves that there is a play area with toys she can use.
Amazing staff, nice building, great breakfast. Play area for small children, lounge for grown ups, on-site dog! Close to beach and sights.
Only negative is that parking is tricky with a big car, you'll have to squeeze through a 2 x 3 m opening to get into the car park
Great location close to sea and theatres easy to park felt very welcome from hosts room was great had everyting we needed would be my first choice if we come back to another show
A really enjoyable stay. Lovely to see the new artwork in the public areas, really brightens it up. Steve and Renée were great hosts without being intrusive. Look forward to visiting again and seeing the next stages of change. Should make a good stay even better!
A good base to explore Eastbourne and the south coast. Good breakfast, modern decor, lots of helpful students, friendly welcome, wide range of nationalities. Very near to sea front, Bandstand, Pier, shopping centre, theatre & good eateries..

Brief Visit
Place is still ok under new owners, though some of the onsite artwork would not be to all tastes.
Steps up to front door need securing, some are loose.
They stay was okay except the carpet fitters working outside my room which was a bit inconvenience and disappointing where I couldn’t get to my room sometimes.
This was our first stay under the new ownership and it didn't disappoint. Staff were very welcoming at check-in and throughout our stay.
The decor has been updated and Sheldon House now looks far more 'colourful'.
I rarely read the guest information, however the folder was inviting and I am glad that I opened it. The information contained within was very engaging and helpful, especially as I established that at some point it was called The Burley Sheldon Hotel. I need to check my husband's ancestory for a connection!
Check-in, check-out very easy.
Onsite parking was a huge plus.
Breakfast choices were very good.
