The Willows

Great Value for money, location was perfect right next to the beach. The room was small but for 2 people staying one night we didn’t need anything more. Would stay again!

An uncomfortable stay for me. Although the location is great and close to the pier, the quality of the hotel is questionable. The service upon entry was fine and very fast. The rooms are well-sized but unclean and dusty. The chest of drawers in my room were full of old food and cigarettes, and the sheets provided had moths. The bathroom is clean and okay. The walls are thin so I could hear people’s every word from outside the room at night. Overall, as a young woman travelling, I felt unsafe and unfortunately will have to find elsewhere next time.

This is my favorite place to stay in Brighton! It’s quiet and laid back, the location is amazing and it’s cheaper to stay here than anywhere else. Definitely recommend.

A little tired…. Bed was comfy (even if did fill room) I was expecting a single but got a double which was a plus. I had a good nights sleep. Parts are looking tired and the floor in bathroom needed repairs and the sink was literally falling off the wall…put my hand on it whilst brushing my teeth and literally moved! I hope they spend time now season coming to an end that they rectify these issues. Only mirror was above sink so couldn’t really see what I was wearing, but plug socket by bed near door to bathroom, meant I could straighten my hair.

Not what I expected Bad points: Arrived at the hotel to find that my booking was not on the list despite booking back in January. The staff member then asked us to wait outside as there was no indoor seating area meaning we had to wait with our luggage. After approx 15 minutes the staff member advised us he ‘found a room’ for us and gave us the key. The hotel is small and very compact, spread over 3 floors. The room I specifically stayed in felt very small and there was not much standing height. The bathroom was tiny and there was a small sink in the corner that was too small to do anything with. The room appears to need a revamp as there is dried marks on the wall that looks like old condensation. The room I stayed in looked nothing like the pictures. There was also a brown smear near the bed frame that I washed off myself, I refrained from flagging this to the staff as I knew there would be no other room to transfer to as the hotel was at capacity. The bed was very firm and uncomfortable and the room was overal very stuffy Good points: very close to city centre and beach front
