About

Set on Eastbourne’s seafront, Eastbourne Riviera Hotel overlooks the ocean and the local beach. Each of our light and airy rooms features a private bathroom, tea and coffee making facilities, TV's, hairdryers and free WiFi, while some rooms also provide lovely Sea views! We currently operate on a Bed&Breakfast basis with freshly cooked breakfasts that are offered every morning at our Café. Guests can also enjoy our range of soft drinks and alcoholic beverages served daily at our Bar! Ideally located to explore multiple locations on foot: in less than 5 minutes - Eastbourne Pier; 15 minutes - both Eastbourne Railway station and Beacon Shopping Center; in less than 10 minutes - Eastbourne’s 1930’s Bandstand; around 15 minutes - International Tennis Center, Congress Theater and Towner Gallery. Many more restaurants, pubs, bars, cafes and a theater are also very close by! Venturing out by car is also very convenient: 15 minutes drive - to the famous Beachy Head and South Downs National Park; less than 10 minutes - to the Sovereign Harbor; around or under 40 minutes - to both Brighton and Bexhill.

    • Location was very good and it was very clean
    • Eastbourne Riviera Hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. Not only did I love my charming ocean view room, I also found the staff to be especially kind and helpful...I plan to return to beautiful Eastbourne in the fall, and will be booking to stay here for at least 2 weeks~ That's how much I love staying here! :)
    • It was on the seafront

    Cons -

    • Very very basic , bed was uncomfortable Wasn’t told at check in it would be noisy til 11pm due to a salsa class was told when we enquired about restaurants in the area
    • Bedroom was rather small. The shower could’ve done with a shelf for putting shampoo, et cetera on
    • Unfortunately I had to ask for a change of duvet cover. This was done swiftly and without fuss.

    The staff. Flexibility to stay on a day to day basis for 3 weeks and a good rate. Parking was mostly very close.

    A Christmas night away. The room was basic but clean and comfortable. All the information regarding parking had been clearly stated in the information - we parked a couple of streets away, it was fine. Close enough to walk into town for meals and theatre. Room was nicely warm.

    Nothing to complain about.

    9AnnPosted on: 12-4-2025

    A great location. Great view. Nice addition of fridge in room. Beds comfortable.

    Hotel was a little tired. The decor was very basic. Shower had hardly any power and just trickled leaving you cold.

    9StevenPosted on: 11-24-2025

    Nice hotel ,friendly helpful staff , clean .Good location

    6AngelaPosted on: 11-23-2025

    The location is great not far from pier, town centre and a pub on the corner with good food, the hotel is exceptionally clean with books ,games if needed, cannot comment on food as we didn't eat there only because we were meeting friends for the day, the bedroom was a good size, with a fridge and safe

    Unfortunately the bed wasn't great it felt old and hard the manager did say he hadn't had any complaints about the bed before and we could choose another room for the 2nd night, would we stay stay again yes if we had a better bed.

    6RachaelPosted on: 11-23-2025

    Great location, prime beach spot. Quiet, lovely staff very accommodating and polite.

    Bed were very uncomfortable probably need an upgrade. Rooms could do with a bit of an update.

    The location of this property is amazing and beautiful because it is right on the sea front. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The breakfast was very reasonably priced with lots of options available i.e. cooked English breakfast/coffee/toast/cereal. Although the parking was not included in the price there is ample seafront parking next to the hotel which will set you back a staggering £2.35 for 24 hours. The general cleanliness of the hotel was to an excellent standard.

    The ensuite bathroom was very dated and it was quite clear that the flooring underneath the vinyl had suffered many years of inaccurate attendances, which meant that every time you walked on the vinyl floor, there was a waft of stale urine. The bath was not in a great state i.e. chipped enamel - could have done with a good clean, so I used the shower which was fine for anybody beneath the height of 5ft 3 because the shower head wasn't movable so I crouched underneath it in order to wash the whole of my 5ft 10 body. The room was conveniently located right next to the elevator which meant that during the night whenever the elevator was moving, there was an audible whistle which was quickly followed by a breeze into my room.

    Came for the marathon weekend- excellent location. Very friendly staff. Very good breakfast. Room had a beautiful sea view, although the room itself was starting to show a little wear and tear in places, but very comfy, large bed and generally clean. Represents very good value , would recommend and would definitely come again.
