What a lovely hotel in a great location

We loved, loved, loved this hotel and would definitely stay again if back in Eastbourne. It was a last minute trip and quite unplanned so I booked based on others great feedback and we have to agree. Easy parking was followed by such a lovely warm welcome and quick checkin. They have a beautiful old and original lift int he hotel with metal shutters and a seat which was lovely. However what was even nicer was the fact that you are taken to your room to check you are happy with it. The staff at every contact were friendly and the place spotlessly clean. We would have been very happy had we been staying longer. Another nice touch was the offer of a complimentary glass of wine int he bar at 6pm as a welcome to the hotel. Whilst we couldnt take advantage it was touches like this that made the place feel out of the ordinary and a little more special. Everything about the hotel showed tradition and elegance. Well dont to the team working at this hotel - you are doing a great job!!!

Perfect stop over for the tennis

Good location on the seafront and very short walk to the tennis venue. The mattress on the king size bed was really comfortable. Good view of the beach and pier. Staff were really helpful and the food was great. The chef made a lovely pasta dish for me and my husband's steak was really tasty.

What can i say apart from a very big thank you to all the staff myself and wife came in contact with during our stay. 3mths ago we stayed at The Grand in Brighton which was a absolutely amazing stay for my 60th, but The Chatsworth Hotel topped it without doubt, from the moment we arrived at 6pm the receptionist greeted us with a smile before taking us up in the antique lift to our beautiful large spacious Jr suite. The room was amazing with sea views, a super kingsize bed & the Jacuzzi bath was amazing. When we came back from dinner & cinema the night porter once again faultless and after a quick chat he offered us a late checkout which we gladly accepted, because we were able to enjoy room service breakfast without rushing & another soak in the Jacuzzi bath before checking out at 12pm. The waitress who delivered our breakfast once again lovely smile & friendly. My only negative was that we didnt have dressing gowns/slippers in the room & a mini fridge. Next time we will come for a longer stay & try out the restaurant & piano bar, but The weekend was absolutely perfect especially as we were celebrating our wedding Anniversary. Thank you Chatsworth team for making our short stay one we will remember & will be returning to very soon.

The property was stunning, I don't recall the last time I was shown to our room. The downstair decor is superb, I felt like I needed a cocktail dress to really enjoy it (think Downton Abbey). The old fashioned elevator, the decor, the color scheme, it was beautiful. The staff were very friendly and most helpful. Out room was beautiful, with a fabulous view of the beach and pier. We were able to sleep with the windows open and enjoy the sound of the waves. The bathroom and huge tub just to die for. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, it is a shame it was only one night. We would return for sure, with a cocktail dress!

Staff were lovely and went out of their way to ensure you were satisfied and had everything you needed. The rooms are large and spacious but not luxury. If you look there are lots of dents and dings, the shower screen is not great, the taps are scaled inside, the carpets are very stained. Look I am making this sound awful it wasnt but it isnt luxury by any standard of where I have stayed previously but I would stay again yes.
