The buffet breakfast was exceptional, huge choice and good quality.
The complimentary tea and coffee in the room was rather basic. The windows were a bit dirty, which spoilt the sea view.
7.0
Clean and tidy and quite a large hotel. Rooms were very well looked after.
Staff came across as rude. And basic things seems such a hassle with them.

location was fabulous. Some of the single rooms are quite old so upgraded to a new and modern double.
There are no fridges in the room, but simply ask and they deliver one!

Very nice room with a superb view. The bed was very comfy, and the the size of the TV was as big as any I have ever seen in a hotel room. Having use of the swimming pool was very enjoyable. Friendly staff, and the breakfast was excellent value for money.
According to the brochure handed to us, wi-fi was only free to paying customers if one was member or became a member of their loyalty programme. Only at checkout we found out that there is in fact a password to bypass this and access the wi-fi without having to enrol in their loyalty programme. I wish this had been made clear to us on arrival.

Hotel was immaculate, all main areas clean and fresh and all staff we encountered were great. Location is perfect and breakfast delicious!
Our room was slightly too warm and view was at the back of the hotel over other rooms.

The staff were great. The room was spacious
Our bed was so noisy and possibly broken. The left hand side sunk down quite a bit and creaked a lot. The sofa and chair in the room were hard as a rock and not comfortable to sit in at all. The guest services details were cheap and incorrect. The pool area is very dated and drab, no information on the lockers and how to work them etc. We upgraded to a sea view on arrival, but the windows were quite dirty, so it was hard to appreciate the view, especially in the morning.

Great location. Friendly staff. Lovely breakfast with lots of choice.
Parking on site a huge bonus
Bed was a little uncomfortable, mattress not quite firm enough for me.

Help I got at the reception, especially by Suzana. She was so willing to help and nice. Really lovely.
The room did not meet my expectations. There could be more amenities. I stayed for 5 nights. I could have been provided some goodies like mineral still water upon my arrival (only once towards the end did I get a can). Not everything was replaced on a daily basis (I wanted minted tea and chamomile- instead of just black tea which I do not drink), toilet paper or small towels (once none of these was added). I would have liked to have a mini fridge. This would have been of help.
The room and the building looks in need of upkeep to make it look less old.
At certain times the hotel was crowded and there were too many people waiting for the lift, especially when whole groups do check-in. Once I had to go all the way upstairs to the fifth floor at the end of a long conference day!

The hotel is OK for what it is - nothing special.
The bar was nice, a bit expensive, but they made a decent cocktail.
No free wi-fi; to get it free you had to join their club, which is a nonsense. Every hotel, every cafe, every bar nowadays has free wi-fi.
Our room was at the far end of the hotel; my wife wanted a shower before we went out but ran the water, and ran the water and eventually had a cold shower, which did not put her in the best of moods. When I came to try the shower, the same thing happened, but after several minutes the water warmed up; clearly it took an age for hot water to get through the system. When my wife complained at the desk the response was, to say the least, mediocre, so we left without any resolution and a bad taste over the poor service.

Fantastic Location we booked a room with a sea view & balcony
The only thing I would say breakfast lots of choice however cooked buffet needs to be kept at a higher temperature was barely warm.
Warm plates would also help.

For some reason I booked a room for a person in a wheelchair, which we didn't need. No hooks on bathroom door for towels/robes etc. No shelf in bathroom for toiletries. Breakfast on Saturday morning was overcrowded and chaotic. Location good.
Think about number of hotel guests and how this may affect breakfast ie quantity of food and seating of guests.

Excellent room, excellent breakfast
On arrival we asked about parking and were informed the multiple storey we parked in was ok, were given a code and paid £9 in the hotel reception, when leaving the car park we were told our ticket did not apply to the car park and had to pay £28. Total £37. On arrival only one lift was working and a group of 52 members of the Sunseakers club were waiting to use the one lift with luggage in front of us. The bar was packed with a wedding party and in the morning there was a queue from the breakfast room into the corridor, another log wait. Nice hotel but full to capacity and a lot of money for the experience.

The location and the friendliness of the staff.
The room we booked through Booking.com was a superior queen room with sea view and a kitchen area. When shown to our room the hotel explained that there are no rooms in the hotel with a kitchen area. So you mis-represented the room. The kitchen area was of p[articular importance to us, see description from my booking below:
'Queen Superior Room with Sea View and Balcony
Meals can be prepared in the well-fitted kitchen, which comes with a refrigerator, a dishwasher and a microwave. The spacious double room provides air conditioning, a tea and coffee maker, a balcony with sea views as well as a private bathroom featuring a shower. The unit offers 1 bed. '
In addition we had noises in the room throughout the night ranging from phone alarms and buzzing from the air-conditioning.
6.0
the room was great and the bed was very comfy. the breakfast wis brilliant, however i do think some gluten free bread could be laid out so i don't have to bother staff as it took so long to toast it and bring it over i had finished eating the rest of my meal.
we choose your hotel due to its parking and gym facilities. the gym floor matts smelt so bad we did not want to spend time in there and may car got damaged in the car park and the police are having to look into it.

Having stayed at the Doubletree Hilton - we were very disappointed with the room size. Having specifically selected a Superior Queen with sea view. As my partner needed space to work in the morning and a spacious bathroom, as displayed on the Booking website images.
The room and bathroom were much, much smaller than the rooms disclosed online and I am very unhappy with this, I raised this with the reception staff and they basically referred us to Booking! Even though we confirmed the images on their website also were much, much larger than the actual room they booked us into - but did state we were in a Superior Queen with sea view.
This really has put a cloud over our stay in Brighton and questions my choice of booking service and hotel chain for future trips (living in both Zurich / London we travel frequently).
We have paid far too much for a very, very basic room - NOT what we selected!
I would ask you to consider the above and take appropriate action.

Room was small but good for the money. Didn’t have breakfast. Location really good. Near everything you need.
May be entertainment would have been nice. But the bar was nice enough
7.0
Overall it was average.
Bathroom clean but shower and bath a safety hazard.
Breakfast overpriced £22.50.pp Tap misses the wash hand basin. Would expect decent coffee served to the table with toast. Machines produced small half cup of frothy coffee cold and was out of service 50% of the time.
Kids room looks like a token gesture.

the facilities were very charming and with every service needed within, i would like to praise Lucy from the reception for being so kind and caring when i needed some help (and for wearing comfortable shoes hahaha)

Room was nice and had obviously been updated recently.
Did not like the £25 charge for an early check in even though the room was ready and available, never have I experienced a charge like this before.

There were so many Cons to the £240 room that it’s hard to say we enjoyed anything.
Rooms are extremely small - we even got an upgrade for an extra £30 and I must say for a £240 per night room, it was extremely small, bathroom was terribly small, everything in the room was on top of each other and boarder lining on ridiculous. Not worth the money at all.
5.0
Hotel was in a great location, staff were great & newly refurbed
The room was a wind trap, it was SO noisy during the night that it kept me awake. Had to put the TV on to end up covering the noise. If I wasn’t all settled in the room and in bed I would of gone to reception to ask to move rooms
9.0
Good location. Lovely room
Great breakfast
The television didnt work. This seems to be a problem that happens at the Hilton hotels. Had the same problem in Cardiff. Reported it the next morning.
