Hotels near Green Ridge Dew Pond, Brighton and Hove

We stayed for 2 nights in the large attic room with en suite shower. The room was really comfortable and a great rain shower. What made it memorable over other places at the lower end of the price range were the little things like 2 touch sensitive bedside lights both with USB ports, ample tasty tea and coffee available, good internet connection, hairdryer and an extra electric heater as the room was huge with SO MANY power sockets. A great low price room at the back of the hotel so very quiet and great sunset view, with parking on site at £5 a day but we had no problem finding on street parking within 4 minutes walk.

I didn't intend to stay here, I confused this hotel with the seafront Leonardo Royal, and I was told by a taxi driver that it's a common mistake. I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel. It has a bright reception area with a bar , restaurant, and breakfast area. There are also a few toiletteries and snacks available to buy. The staff are efficient. My room was on the fifth floor with a view across the town. The room was very clean with a first-rate bed, largish tv., Espresso machine, a well stocked hospitality tray , slippers, toiletteries, a Mini fridge and a safe , although you are advised to leave valuable items in the reception. I slept well, I didn't really hear any noise from inside or outside. The televisions have restricted sound.There are key cards that not only open room doors but are required to call the lifts on the ground floor. There is a small selection of food available, pizzas steaks , pasta, fish and chips, and other pub favourites. Breakfast is taken in the extended restaurant , there is a great selection to most guests, continental cold cuts, fruits, yoghurt, porridge, cereals, pastries, smoothies, etc. Guests can set themselves up for the day. The seafront is approximately 15 minutes walk away, the quickest route, and it's downhill . The railway station is literally just around the corner, so this is also a good spot for those delegates attending conferences in the hotel. Overall , I had a pleasant stay and would recommend it to others.

It might have been rated a 3star establishment back in it's day, but I strongly suspect since they had their rating they let anything that goes wrong stay wrong. Whilst our room that we stayed in for a week was large and clean, the hairdryer didn't work, curtains were falling down and had stains along with the carpets and couch also being badly stained, The wardrobe doors didn't close, the two single beds pushed together had no headboard and the double sheet on the bed wasn't wide enough to cover the 2 single beds. The beds were comfortable enough though. On the 1st night a window was smashed on the landing stairway. It took them 3 days to clear up the glass on carpeted floor and window sill. I'm not sure what makes a hotel, a hotel, but as I can only think it's 24hour Reception then that's how they get by as there was no kitchen, bar or any other 'facility'. In the 7 night stay they only do housekeeping once (though if we'd have asked for extra I'm sure they would have obliged'. They took away our large bath sheets on that one clean and were replaced with small bath towels. We had hung them up so I thought that was meant to mean we didn't need them replaced. I did ask reception if they could provide any of the large ones but they'd gone to the cleaners. The location is very good, close to seafront and bus routes. The staff we did encounter at Reception were friendly and helpful which is why I still rate it 3 out of 5. The area is very expensive and this was a reasonable price for it's location. having said all the above if I need a place to stay for less than £90 a night I would book again.

The hotel location is amazing - just 2 minutes from the station (if that) and a 10 minute stroll to the beach. The Hotel was exceptionally clean with brilliant welcoming staff. As other have mentioned, the only negative is that the breakfast choices were very limited. Small single portion omelettes, tinned tomatoes and sausages, as well as cereals etc. However - don't let this distract you. Loved the additional facilities of the hotel (washing machines, the Den) etc. The room was silent - no noise from anywhere. Good powerful but quiet air con.

The hotel is located in the heart of the city and is walkable to the famous beach. It is next to the central station and super convenient to start the journey in Brighton

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights at the Kings. We enjoyed every minute. The staff were all friendly, helpful and did everything to make our stay just perfect. Our double room was large,beautifully clean and very comfortable. Breakfasts were great with plenty of choice and in a delightful bright breakfast room. The Kings is ideally located on the seafront. We will definitely be back. Thanks to all the staff at the Kings Hotel.

We stayed in a standard king room. The room looked like it needed a lot of work done (walls, door, windows). The walls are so thin that I could hear the next rooms conversation clearly. The staff are friendly and helpful and breakfast was good but I don’t think i would stay here again. Parking was awful, there are hardly any spaces as most the spaces have pillars in them and they are very small to get in to. They also share the car park with another building so there’s not many spaces available considering how many rooms they have. It was better to park in the nearest car park. I’ve stayed in other holiday inns and they were so clean and lovely rooms to stay in. I just think that this hotel is outdated and needs work.

Stayed here for a conference and wasn’t overly impressed. I appreciate they are going through a refit but there was an unacceptable amount of disruption. Long wait at reception to check in. Long queue and only 2 receptionists. Workmen noise during breakout sessions of the conference meant it was difficult to hear speakers. Main lifts out of action and signposting from small lifts to rooms was very poor and I struggled to find my room. Room smelled strongly of paint and had to open window as air con unit didn’t appear to be wired in. Came back after being at dinner to find my towels had been replaced (surprised but thank you) but my facecloth had been removed (it was my own one) and I had nothing to wash my face with. But probably worst of all was being woken by workmen shouting right outside my window at 6.45am. Not what I wanted after a late night. I’m just glad I wasn’t paying for it!

The hotel lives up to its name it’s “Grand” and has retained its charm. Our room on the 5th floor was very large well furnished, great amenities and clean with a wonderful sea view. Thank you to the amazing staff on concierge desk, reception, breakfast crew and housekeeping who were always friendly efficient and helpful, it was a delightful six days. We will definitely return.

I almost walked out of Jury's Inn when I arrived in Brighton; I was already irritated by their 16:00 check-in time, and the place felt grubby and tired when I walked in. However, it redeemed itself quite quickly when I dealt with the staff. The ladies on the reception desk were incredibly helpful, friendly and efficient, and Ken at the bag storage made my day with his calm and affable personality. The room itself was clean and comfortable, and even though I was close to the lifts, there was little noise. I never ate at the dining room so cannot comment, but I did have a drink at the bar area, which I found to be a little sterile. It was a busy weekend with many people and families in and out, but the hotel managed exceptionally well. Even when one of the lifts was out, I didn't feel that the staff dropped their pace or professionalism. The hotel is in a great location as a springboard for Brighton. My ”Jury” is still out regarding value for money, but I have no hesitation in appreciating the staff.
