Nice small hotel, ideal for a short break. Very close to the Seafront and easy access to the town. The stand out for me was warm welcome at breakfast and level of service by the lady in the breakfast room. The single room is compact but nice sea view and sound of the waves. Warm and well equipped. I was in Eastbourne for work so didn’t spend a lot of time at the hotel but happy with my stay.

Great bed & breakfast accommodation on sea front!
We enjoyed staying at this small hotel with excellent customer service, a warm welcome and staff very friendly. Room was same as pictured on website with a lot of space between the comfy beds and view looking out to the town rather than ocean. Tea/Coffee making facilties, fresh clean sheets & towels were provided for our 2 day stay. The ensuite bathroom was disappointing though as older bath, sink & toilet needs updated and only a hand held shower from the mixer taps was attached to the tiles with no screen or shower curtain provided. There wasn't any plug to have a bath either. We were offered a free continental full breakfast on both days in the kitchen/dining room which we didn't think was included in the price so made up for the older style ensuite bathroom. Hotel was situated across from the sea front not far from Grand Parade, shops and train station.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I stayed two nights at The Halcyon (I originally just booked for one night but then decided to extend my stay for another, so I actually got to stay in two different rooms). Both rooms were clean and well equipped, and the hotel is right across from the ocean (my first room even had a sea view). There's a simple but satisfying breakfast each morning in the dining room. However, I think the thing that really made the Halcyon stand out is that every member of the staff I interacted with was incredibly friendly and helpful. They really made me feel welcome. I would definitely stay again.
