The hotel is located in a beautiful area and has preserved its early 19th-century atmosphere, though now in a modernized form. The reception and lounges are wonderful, and the staff is polite. The room, especially for such a low price, was large, spacious, comfortable, and clean with beautiful view on the hills. We are very glad we chose to stay there.🤩🥰

Bath mat .

Helen at reception gave a fantastic welcome. Really warm and friendly. Great ambassador for the Lansdowne. The night staff were friendly and helpful too.

Staff were very helpful and friendly. From helping me with luggage to the room, to the breakfast team and bar staff. Second evening the lady behind the bar had remembered I don't take ice in drinks and I never had to remind again. The room was very clean but first evening the radiators were off and really difficult to turn on. Same with the heated towel rail. I reported and it was sorted quickly but would be good to have been checked beforehand.

Two days I had no bath room floor mat which was an odd miss. Having to buy water for the room is very strange when you get free water from a hotel like Premier Hub and also limited coffee and tea supplies even if you can call for more. 1 teabag and 1 coffee sachet limits you to a morning or night coffee without having to request supplies. Meeting room was very basic and the basement really sad and unloved. Room not well set up and at times chilly. The accessible toilet was not nice. The door sticks, so hard to pull shut which is not ideal if trying to manage a walking aid or baby and changing stuff. The hand paper roll was left open all week with the roll just left in , which felt uncared for. It also felt uncared for generally

I stay at the Lansdowne frequently as I like it's comfy atmosphere, friendly staff, and beachfront location. My single room with sea views was very clean and comfortable with plenty of storage space and tea/coffee making facilities. TV reception was good. Bed had a lovely deep mattress, there was very little noise, so enjoyed a good night's sleep.

The wi-fi throughout the building (and I've stayed in various rooms over the years) is awful. Fortunately, I wasn't trying to work during my stay. The hotel does need to look into how it can produce a much better signal for guests. The breakfast arrangements changed last year - it used to be that breakfast was served freshly cooked at your table along with tea/coffee and a nice selection of toast. Now it's all self-service and the quality isn't as good with food becoming dried up under the catering lamps, particularly the fried eggs.

The Lansdowne is unbelievable value for money! It’s a fabulous find. All the staff I came across were delightful. My single room on the second floor with a great view of the sea was more than I expected - an extra sitting area, comfortable bed, good quality, appealing furnishings, bathroom not recently renovated but perfectly clean with everything you need including a comfortable bath and fluffy white towels. The multiple lounge areas and bar are inviting, a lovely spot to relax with a drink or a chat or quiet read. The restaurant 1920 was also a great experience. Good food, nice setting, friendly good service. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great location opposite beach. Very clean and well decorated. Amazing buffet breakfast with coffee machine to suit all tastes. Warm but not hot at night . Free parking very close during months of November-March. Easy walk into town; around 15-20 mins stroll. Asked for sea view with bath which we got.

Not a big deal but there was no bottled water, fridge or tissues in the room. Being on a road there was some noise but it didn’t disturb us. Only one window opened, and only a few inches so it may be a bit warm in the summer. Mattress was not the most comfortable. Cracked sink. But none of this affected our stay- we would return.

My daughter and I love Eastbourne and we often stay at the Lansdowne Hotel. The staff are very friendly, the hotel is very comfortable, reasonably priced, and conveniently located opposite the sea front and within walking distance from the town centre, theatres, pier and bandstand. The hotel has lift access to all floors. Plenty of available parking on the sea front with free parking for blue badge holders. We stayed for breakfast which was excellent. There is plenty to do in the area which is perfect for disabled travellers. Would recommend.

Slight issues with the walk-in shower (Room 147). Water overflows from the shower tray leaving puddles on the bathroom floor. My daughter is disabled so I was worried about her slipping although there are handrails. There didn't appear to be an extractor fan or heated towel rail; therefore everything ended up wet and soggy. Fine for one night, but if we were staying for longer there were concerns that our room, and belongings, could become damp. The room was beautifully decorated with super comfy beds, although there was no proper wardrobe, just a wall unit with hooks to hang clothes on. Fridge needed a wipe out.

The view was stunning. Nothing better than to wake up or go to bed to with this windows full of sea. The room was big and comfy. The breakfast was wonderful and reasonable priced. Staff was very nice. It is very quiet since its location is a bit off from the touristy pier.

The bed was a bit squeaky whenever you move. Unfortunately the curtains don't draw out the entire light, it is very sunny early in the morning and also very warm since the sun was directly shining on my window. It does have a fan you can plug in, an aircon or better insulated windows would have been better. It is a bit far away from the pier, but in walkable distance (if you don't have heavy luggage). It would have been nice to have a fridge inside the room, if it is already so hot inside the room and there are no other means to have cool water

A beautiful single room with sea view on the first floor with access by lift to get bags upstairs conveniently opposite my room.

Belisha beacons flashing on the zebra crossing at night as I have photosensitive epilepsy but the closure of the curtains was sufficient to cut out the flash. Also the internet connection clicks in and out and doesn't appear to be secure. Told by a staff member The Landsdowne is hoping to get the service changed soon.

This is an older style seaside hotel - spotlessly clean and with old-fashioned service. The lounges were comfortable. The bedroom (sea view) was huge. There was no noise from the public areas at all in our room. It's a good location between the pier and the calmer western end of the resort. Not too bad for public transport.

Individually the staff were great, but they were badly managed - the restaurant was chaotic while the supervisors were there, and ran smoothly when they were missing! The pillows were hard which meant we slept poorly. Possibly a bit expensive for what it was - but probably in line with other local good hotels.
