Trudy H. Solo - Confirmed reviews ALL

The decor inside my room was hideous. Dominated by a large modern wardrobe thing (no sides or front) featuring a large ironing board. The tea tray, with instant coffee (really!) was in this cupboard and to attach the kettle to a socket meant moving the table and heavy lamp.

Dear Trudy, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay. I’m very sorry to hear that your room did not meet your expectations and that the interior design and layout left you disappointed. I fully appreciate how frustrating it must have been to find the décor and furniture configuration impractical — particularly the open wardrobe unit, ironing board placement, and the inconvenience of accessing power points for the kettle. Your comments about the tea and coffee offering and the overall usability of the space are noted and entirely understandable. While our building is historic and some rooms feature modern storage solutions designed to maximise space, it’s clear that in your case this did not translate into a comfortable or enjoyable experience. Your feedback will be shared with both our housekeeping and management teams as we continue reviewing room layouts, amenities, and refurbishment priorities. I’m genuinely sorry that your room fell short, especially given how positively you felt about the hotel’s exterior. Thank you for being honest — comments like yours are invaluable in helping us improve. Should you consider staying with us again in the future, we would very much welcome the opportunity to allocate a different room type that better reflects your preferences and expectations. Warm regards, Ioannis Biternas Operations Manager Mercure Brighton Seafront Hotel

Robert D. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

There are always pluses and minuses with older hotels. Had a spacious room with a sea view. This was clean with a good bathroom and shower, although a little short on storage. Housekeeping was efficient and reception friendly. However, the breakfast room was really too small for the number of guests staying, despite the best efforts of the staff to clear tables and keep buffets supplied. The lift was a little tired with some buttons that did not work properly and did not inspire confidence. There are a lot of internal steps and I could imagine that it is not ideal for guests with mobility issues. Overall, the stay was a positive experience but not one to justify the highest rating.

Dear Robert, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your detailed and well‑considered feedback following your recent stay. We appreciate your overall rating of 80/100 and are pleased to hear that your experience was positive overall. I’m delighted to know that you enjoyed your spacious sea‑view room and that you found it clean with a good bathroom and shower. It’s also encouraging to hear your kind comments about our housekeeping team and friendly reception staff — your recognition of their efforts is greatly appreciated. At the same time, I’m grateful for your honest observations regarding the challenges that can come with an older, characterful building. Your comments about limited storage, the size of the breakfast room during busy periods, and the condition of the lift are important to us. While our team works hard to manage breakfast service efficiently, I understand how space constraints can impact the experience, and your feedback will be shared with the relevant teams as part of our ongoing reviews. You also raise a very valid point regarding internal steps and accessibility. As a historic property, we do have some structural limitations, but we are continually looking at ways to improve accessibility and ensure guests are fully informed and supported when planning their stay. Thank you again for your constructive feedback and for recognising both the strengths and areas for improvement. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Mercure Brighton Seafront Hotel in the future. Warm regards, Ioannis Biternas Operations Manager
