Hotel Pelirocco

The staff could not have been more welcoming or helpful and went out of their way to make sure that not just my stay with them, but my time in Brighton was wonderful. My room (Do Knit Disturb) was a delight: quirky, comfortable, cosy and full of adorable knitted novelties designed by a local artist. The decor was fabulous: opulent and OTT in the very best way - I could have spent hours just pottering up and down the crazy, multi-directional stairs and taking photos of the various pictures and Pelirocco paraphernalia (and had I had longer there, I definitely would have done!). The location was brilliant for both the Brighton Centre (I was down for a convention) and allowing me to explore the town without having to wander too far afield (I was staying alone and I felt very safe to go out at night), there was car parking nearby and the bar was an absolute bonus: great vibe, great cocktails, great company (staff and guests alike) - I'd love to have been staying when they had one of their live music nights! A last nod to the nostalgia of the place in the form of a welcome Curly Wurly was much appreciated (and gives me reason to believe the breakfast was as good as it smelled).

There was nothing I didn't like, but if my room had had a mini fridge (not stocked - I'm not a princess!), a hook by the door to keep the key on and they'd had cards or prints by the artist for sale I would have been an even happier bunny.

The vibe was awesome, alternative and fun, the decor is wonderfully Brighton, and perfect for Rockers, Rollers, Disco dancers and sci-fi heads alike! The location is central yet close to the seafront with a green space directly opposite. The breakfast looked fabulous although I had an early start and didn’t eat before I checked out. I would definitely stay here again! An awesome place to stay in a group. Room service is available as an option.

Some pretty steep stairs towards the top of the building, so request a lower floor if this is an issue. However, the rooms Square have a great view! There isn’t much not to like about this fabulous gem of a hotel in the heart of Brighton.

Fantastic welcome from Marlon when we arrived. Staff were all lovely and nothing has been too much trouble at every step along the way - they made sure my partner's birthday cake was waiting in the room when we arrived and there were a couple of curly wurly bars with the tea and coffee items which was such a lovely touch. Room (Taboo) was decadent and plush with lots of saucy fun touches and seemed to be soundproofed which is great if you want to play a little or just lounge around chatting. So much to see on every wall and the hotel is extremely quirky and colourful. We wanted to have a little bimble around Brighton the next morning and the reception staff were more than happy to keep our bags safe for us while we wandered. Lady with the blue hair was brilliant and really sweet - so sorry that I didn't catch your name to mention it here. Little issue with the hot water in our room but it took nothing away from the fantastic stay and the staff resolved it swiftly. We were so enamoured with the aesthetics and service we are definitely popping back and have joined the loyalty programme. I totally want to try the boudoir room next time. :)

Not really a criticism as can't be helped but my partner is 6ft 4 and the ceiling in the bathroom, in places (the bath, which is raised on a platform), was more designed for humans 6ft or under so it was quite amusing to watch him giving it a try. Thankfully the bath is big enough for two so you may need to plan for a bath rather than a shower if you're a tall person. Cannot fault the rest of hotel, absolutely fabulous and definitely worth the money.

The location to the water was fantastic and it was easy enough to walk everywhere. Our room was not ready even after the check in time but the staff was apologetic and offered me a free cocktail - I always appreciate good customer service! The room was clean and spacious and I love the themed decor.

There’s very little air flow in room 7 and the room got very hot. The only option was to use a VERY old tan which was very noisy even at its lowest level. My husband and I didn’t sleep very well because of that - honestly cannot imagine what it would be like at the height of summer!

Breakfast is cooked to order, not sitting under heat lamps, very filling and tasty!!! Fabulous, friendly staff 🖤 A quirky little gem, right down beside the seafront...each room is individually themed, mine was based around Bettie Page, loved it, big bonus was to have a balcony. Every twist and turn of Hotel Pelirocco reveals something new...an assault on the senses - in a fabulous way!!! Go there pick a favourite room, maybe return and try a different room each time... You can get add-ons to your stay...like a photoshoot (boudoir, pin-up...) or inroom massage...

The staff were so friendly and helpful. We had a good laugh with Linda she looked after us very well. The room was really well done and gave us a fun experience, we stayed in the star wars room. The bar was really nice, every inch has something cool to look at and the cocktails were lovely. You could stay there and not move away from the hotel at all and have a great time. The location was great and really near the beach.

Nothing, we had no issues at all everything was perfect and we had a really nice stay, we plan to come back sometime

Only there for one night. Had the small reggae room. Everything was sound. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Didn’t eat breakfast but it looked a proper banger

Would have been ace if they sorted the rail strikes out so I could have got home in good time. To be fair, they never claimed or advertised that they could and I never actually requested they do so. Probably a moot point looking over all of the evidence. Outside of this they could not have done any more for me.

Room- exactly like the pictures, even better in person Staff- fantastic, helpful and polite and really made us feel welcome Breakfast- not a massive selection but was perfect, we had the eggs royale and it was delicious. Location- right next to i360 tower, which also make it easy to find when navigating back. Nice walk to the pier and local shops and restaurants.

The only thing that would have made it better is if we didnt have to leave.

Everything! Fab location; fun themed room (we stayed in Modrophenia, which was great - esp the comfy bed and sunken bath); wonderful, welcoming, friendly staff who made us feel like family; funky communal areas; super bar which is rocking and an absolute gem; delicious breakfast (ideal to enjoy lots of tastes - exotic fruit platters, yummy yogurt, hearty and very generous portions of cooked breakfast, divine homemade granola and super coffee). Bohemian, unique, quirky and off the wall. What’s not to love! Absolutely made our weekend and we will look forward to visiting you again Team Pelirocco. Thanks for everything!! 💜🤩🌈

Literally no comments for this box! Everything was wonderful.

Exquisite and quirky room decor, very comfortable bed. Loved the mirror on the ceiling. Breakfast was excellent, staff were very nice and attentive.

Obviously, parking is quite expensive in Brighton and hard to find. That’s one of the reasons why we’re going to Eastbourne instead more often , the hotels there are a bit boring, but it’s still worth it for the lovely restaurants and cheap parking and accommodation.
