Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The room was spacious and clean with all the amenities expected. Hotel is quiet and staff are friendly. Breakfast is poor. There wasn’t enough staff on the cover the floor. Customers were clearing their own tables whilst the two girls stood around. The other lady who I assumed to be a manager wasn’t being very helpful with clearing tables. She was very good at delegating but not actually doing the job herself. The breakfast area was untidy when we arrived just after 9.30. For what you expect at a Leonardo the service at breakfast was poor. Even though it’s a buffet you need to know how many tables you have before saying to people just help yourself. We managed to find one, however we had to share it with another couple. Not what you want at breakfast. It left me feeling disappointed with the stay and ruined the good work of the check in team the day before.

Brighton June’25

Very good clean friendly hotel and excellent daily service in the room. Hotel is situated close to anything you need in Brighton from the beach to the lanes and the Brighton Pavilion. Breakfast is very good (apart from the orange juice which was very watery and tasteless. Stayed at this hotel three times previously and would happily stay again.
