Blanch House — Hotel in Great Britain

We were allocated a "superior" room (Harlequin). Tbh, I wouldn't really class it as 'superior', but it was adequate and clean. |Positives: Friendly, welcoming and helpful staff, happy to provide fresh milk and ice/chilled water for the room. The room had a huge comfortable bed, clean bedding and good sized clean white towels were provided (2 x bath sheets and 2 x hand towels), with tea/coffee makings. Bath robes were provided (which we didn't use). Continental breakfast was included (with a chargeable option for cooked if you wished), but we found the continental to be adequate; (cereals, fruit juice, toast, ham & cheese, fresh fruit, croissants, jam, honey, marmalade, marmite) with freshly made tea and coffee. The location was good, with the seafront at the end of the road and easy walking distance to the pier and other attractions and buses could be got at both the top of the road and along the seafront.|Negatives: Our room was up a few flights of stairs so I was hoping for a nice view, but sadly it was just backs of houses and roofs. The room was on the small side and the toilet/shower room was tiny, with just a very small shelf and nowhere to hang the hand towels. There was an old wardrobe with just 4 hangers and a stiff old drawer at the bottom. It was during a heatwave and the fan provided was old and ineffectual, so it was very hot and stuffy at night, which made sleeping difficult. The breakfast room was in the basement, which was a bit dark and dingy, but I guess that's how the houses are in this area.|All that said, the we got a good deal on the price and wouldn't be averse to...

We stayed on New Year's eve as a party of four in two separate rooms. We were made to feel welcome immediately on arrival, the friendly, happy manger introducing himself and the staff member on the desk going above and beyond to facilitate parking and helping with our bags. The hotel is beautifully decorated, high ceilings, gorgeous individual furniture pieces, a gorgeous well stocked bar (I am now a new fan to the joy that is Brighton Gin!) Each bedroom is quirky and unique, comfortable, sparkling clean and delicately furnished in luxury. The bathrooms clean, fresh, and well equipt. Each staff member we encountered was helpful and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble, they happily swapped my feather bedding for non feather (personal choice) and called us taxis, helping out with their local knowledge when asked. The highlight for me was the breakfast served in the morning. Oh my wow, it was Amazing! A buffet of fresh fruit, croissants, fresh juices etc, fresh tea/coffee brought to our table in the lovely dining room. My husband ordered eggs royale from the large menu which is included as part of the breakfast too, and it arrived to the table freshly prepared, aesthetically pleasing and smelling l lush. He didn't leave a scrap! I ordered the vegan breakfast, and I can honestly say it was the best I've ever eaten. Hot, fresh, beautifully presented. Wow. I will definatley be returning to this gorgeous hotel, 5 huge, well deserved stars from me! I totally recommend this hotel to anyone heading...

My girlfriend and I booked to stay in this hotel last minute. Prior to booking we read through various positive reviews, and upon arrival to the hotel we were not disappointed. We were greeted by a lovely member of staff who promptly checked us in and gave us a map of Brighton, pointing out some great tourist spots. We were then shown to our room, which again did not disappoint. We stayed in the Renaissance room which was perfect for what we needed. The room was clean and cosy and beautifully decorated. There were tea and coffee facilities in the room, including home made biscuits. After a long day exploring Brighton we headed back to the hotel and enjoyed a drink at the bar, which was reasonably priced. Fortunately for us, they recommended a tasteful Italian restaurant within walking distance for our evening meal. The next morning we had breakfast in the hotel and the food was glorious, all food sourced locally. Overall, the hotel is in a great location, the staff are very friendly and go above and beyond to help you and the rooms are clean and cosy. I would definitely stay...
