Everything, I had done a lot of research and read many glowing reviews so was expecting high standards of accommodation, food and service. The reviewers were spot on, it’s a beautiful B&B with luxurious decor and furnishings. I particularly liked the heavy curtains and tasteful furniture, in keeping with the age of the property. The bathroom was sparkling with lots of thoughtful extras and lovely generous sized white fluffy towels. The breakfast was simply outstanding and the staff were lovely.

Our room was one of the smaller ones and the bed had been positioned in order to give maximum space, but this meant one side had no bedside table. A very minor irritation.

17 Wilmington Square was an absolute delight of a place to stay in. Spent 3 nights there with my teenage daughter and we absolutely enjoyed it. The room was big and very well maintained. Large bed with additional window sofa and 2 single armchairs. Very spotless bathroom. I'm very OCD so it was such a breath of fresh air to be in a very clean environment. The Breakfast was awesome daily and thd staff were so pleasant and helpful especially Ben and the lovely ladies who made our food. I am definitely returning and i have recommended them to my older Brother. Thank you 17 Wilmington Square

Nothing. They were spot on

The location is very central, and we were offered help with our bags both on arrival and departure. We had a lovely room which was very comfortable. It was equipped with tea and coffee making facilities, a hairdryer, the TV and plenty of storage for clothes. There was a good choice for breakfast and the Full English was delicious. There was also a nice lounge available for guests.

The loo seat in our room would not stay up as the flushing handle was in the way. That's not particularly convenient for chaps.

The owners of the B&B, Janine and Tony are hands on and get involved with the guests , Janine saw me and my dog in and took us up to the room. Tony was serving breakfast. All the staff I met are super efficient and friendly, so helpful and made me feel at home. The atmosphere is warm and the decor tasteful. Really clean and comfortable room with ensuite bathroom. Breakfast is delicious ! Location of this B&B is perfect , right across the road from the beach. Close to the pier and lots of attractions to go sightseeing, you can be busy all day. Because of the location I was able to pack in alot in 2 days ! There is even a cosy communal lounge to sit in and read, toilet is off the lounge so you don't need to go up and down to your room. I would definitely go back, it's lovely

What a find! We visit Eastbourne often for the tennis and this was a lovely old building with original features which was modernised to give everything we needed. We were upgraded to a superior room and had a fabulous night’s sleep in the very comfy bed. Breakfast was amazing, loads of choice from fruit to the full English including vegetarian options. Owners and staff very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. Only 5 minutes walk from the tennis at Devonshire Park and also from the Towner Gallery. Station about 10 minutes walk away and the beach 5/10 minutes.

All was good.

Beautiful property. Elegant and very comfortable. Gorgeous room, lovely linens, clean and warm. Such friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast was exceptional. Cooked to order and delicious. Fresh fruit and all kinds of cereal, porridge etc. could not fault it. Would come back. Also parking permit provided for £2.20 for 24 hours and we parked just outside the property. Location amazing.

I loved everything

The hotel was exceptional Rooms were emaculat the staff were exceptional Helpful and location is perfect for everything Wished we had stayed longer Sorry to leave Will certainly return and would highly recommend To anybody wanting a exceptional break Breakfast was also exceptional. Also hotel is pet friendly and even facilities for our dog were exceptional.

We liked everything Have just one critasisam and it's probably because I enjoy good coffee It was a little disappointing.

Location, staff, breakfast and room

Asked what time you wanted breakfast and check out was at 11 a.m. but after breakfast someone knocked on the door to tell us where to pay although we still had over an hour to check out. I am sure the team were just helpful but it made us feel like they wanted us to leave although we still had over an hour until check-out. Our suggestion would be that the team tell us where to pay when we check in or during breakfast and that way guests can relax a bit after breakfast

Everything was of a high standard, nicely decorated, clean, good breakfast offering friendly helpful staff, nice comfortable room and quiet. The location is near perfect in the classy part of town a minute from beach and the quieter end of the front away from the pier, a minute from buses to Meads (lovely village on edge of town) and about ten minutes from the town centre, shops and the station. Can’t really fault it in any regard and as such it will be our go to hotel when next in Eastbourne which itself is a delightful location and base for exploring this coast.

Room was a tad warm at night (but weather was warm) but could leave window open to compensate.

Easy to get to from the Rail station, short walk to the beach and city centre. Great breakfast!!! Usually other hotels have the fruit canned, but this hotel had them fresh and the dill mustard is a must try !!!! :) Thank you for everything !!! Lovely decor.

The only minus (and the only:) ) is one of the single beds in room 4 was moving / rocking a bit too much. Perhaps needs slight update in bed base.
