I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were fantastic, offering great amenities and a lovely view over the tennis center. The standalone bath was a nice touch, and having breakfast outside was a treat. However, the service could have been a bit more outgoing in their manner. The location was excellent, being in a safe area next to the beach and close to the center of Eastbourne. The dining experience was delightful with good quality produce cooked to perfection. Overall, a memorable experience with a few minor areas for improvement.
