A gem.
We booked this hotel as a stay for the night after atrending a black tie event. Well, the event was cancelled but i thought that we may as well keep the room anyway. One of my better decisions. From arrival, the atmosphere was friendly, the Harveys bitter well kept and the evening meal was great. Steak & Venison pie for me and Gammon steak fir my fiancé, with a side dish of topped toasted potatoes. The room was clean and spacious, and we found a welcome note from Sarah (the maid) welcoming us. Nice personal touch. Breakfast was also great. Perhaps the only slight nighle was that the duvet was possibly a little small. Butt maybe i'm just a closet duvet hog. All in all, we can thoroughly recommend this gem of an Inn.

Lovely views, great service, room classy and very clean. Good breakfast also. Useful location for visit to Brighton and Hove - bus stop outside takes about 30 mins, costs £2. Would most definitely stay again.

Faultless
An absolutely fabulous stay. Spacious room with comfortable bed. Cleanliness was perfect in both room and bathroom. The bathroom itself was stylish with a lovely shower. Breakfast was ample and very very tasty. Good quality TV, and room service was available with meals from the bar I noticed (I did not need this service). Even though on a main road the noise was minimal so assume there was good double glazing. There was some noise with music from the downstairs bar but this finished at a reasonable hour. For the price the Downs Hotel in my eyes is a little gem.

The Good: Rooms are impeccably clean, stylish, roomy and comfortable Very comfy bed with beautiful bed linen High quality shampoo and shower gel provided Nespresso machine in the room Onsite parking It’s on a busy junction but soundproofing is excellent Great location for walking on South Downs. Regular buses go to Brighton centre (15 minute journey) or 1 hour walk Breakfast included is decent and cooked to order. Restaurant on site for evening meal. Fish and Chip shop close by is an excellent option too. Friendly staff. The Bad: The in-room internet service provider blocks all ‘adult’ websites - even for adults! The milk provided with the tea-making equipment in the room is full-fat (dairy). This is very strange in 2024 and in Brighton in particular. A better option would be for dairy milk to be semi-skimmed and there also to be oat milk sachets

What a great hotel/ pub. Usually stay on the sea front but this was a last minute need to go to Brighton and the prices were very expensive. Found the Downs Hotel, on arrival the staff were very friendly and helpful, was shown to my room which was upgraded from a single to a double without and charge. The room was spacious, nicely decorated and a lovely modern bathroom. Tea and coffee making facilities were great with coffee machine even. The room was nice and warm and had obviously been cleaned to perfection by Sarah who had left me a personalised card. Breakfast was included, i had a full english cooked to perfection with two of everyting! A very enjoyable stay and will definately be staying there again on my next trip in a month or so.

A nice, welcoming pub. Room and en suite very good with comfortable bed. Unable to have breakfast as it was not available till 7.30 and we were leaving at that time for the ferry. Bar and food were fine, no problem. Unfortunately, the pub is on a very busy road junction, and this made it noisy. Also, as our room was at the front and overlooked the outside seating area, it was also noisy.
