The Halcyon

It is a beautiful , well lit, modernised Edwardian building which still maintains many of its original features and resonates a positive and peaceful vibe. My room was spacious, ventilated, clean and well looked after. The breakfast was continental, with good options to choose from. The staff members I encountered were welcoming, friendly, professional and really did contribute to my stay being that much more enjoyable and relaxing. The hotel itself is in an ideal location, it has a spectacular view, overlooking a quiet part of the beach, which is only two minutes from it's entrance. It also is conveniently located that within 5 - 10 minutes walking time, I could be in the more busier and touristy part of the seafront. If you are looking for a place to stay in Eastbourne, I would highly recommend you consider this place.

The continental breakfast was excellent with plenty of choice and the atmosphere informal and relaxed. The ladies who tended the dining kitchen were helpful and lovely. Also the reception and cleaning staff were very welcoming and helpful also, finding a ground floor room for me as the flights of stairs to the top floor were a struggle for me. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who prefers a less formal environment.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at The Halcyon Private Hotel, and it was such a wonderful experience that I extended my stay until Friday, and I might stay even longer. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the kind and helpful gentleman at reception, setting a positive tone for my entire stay. My room is spacious, impeccably clean, and boasts a stunning sea view from the bath. The atmosphere throughout the hotel is calm and peaceful, which I absolutely adore. The bed is incredibly comfortable, and the room is tastefully decorated with pleasant toiletries provided. One of the highlights of my stay is the breakfast included in the price. The lovely lady who organizes breakfast is cheerful and makes every morning delightful. Enjoying breakfast at a table overlooking palm trees, the sea, and the sun is a serene experience that I look forward to each day. Despite the room being busy, it remains fairly silent, allowing for a peaceful start to the day. The Halcyon Private Hotel is truly a gem, situated just one street away from the Grand Hotel and close to the beach. I’ve decided this will be my go-to place with a view until I complete my property purchase. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a tranquil and delightful stay.

Communual kitchen lovely idea, loads of food choices, fresh fruit and yoghurt etc, perfect location, quiet end of the sea front. Stunning view from room!

The property was very clean and well positioned for all activities around the town. The staff were extremely friendly and worked tirelessly to ensure how to stay was as comfortable as could be.
