The Claremont

Second time this year staying at this fabulous place ....the staff are more than helpful (especially storing our bikes that we rode to get there). Rooms are spotless and lots of little amenities to use. Breakfast is the best part - cooked to order followed by a lovely sit in the garden with a coffee and paper...thank you, we will be back soon !

My husband & I stayed here for one night last Thursday visiting family in Hove. The room & bathroom was spacious. Earplugs were supplied by management which I thought was strange. However, within 10 minutes of going to bed you needed the plugs to block out the noise from other guests & traffic noise. We had a disturbed nights sleep due to internal & external noise & I don't think the Guest House should be charging over £200 for one nights accommodation. We were looking forward to 'an award winning breakfast' which was a massive disappointment. We waited 40 minutes for the 'full English' breakfast which arrived cold. We asked for 2 portions of toast which arrived in a toast rack with 3 quarters of toast for 2 people. We asked for more toast which arrived with 2 quarters of toast after we had finished our breakfast. It was so bad we were laughing. The staff did apologise several times for the delay to our breakfast but to serve it cold was appalling. Two other guests arrived for breakfast at 8.30 but as there was no table available for them they were sent back to their rooms & told to come back in 10 minutes. The service at breakfast was like Faulty Towers!

What a fabulous place and I got an upgrade. Great room, huge bath, jar of sweets in the room. Amazing breakfast and ultra efficient arrival system. Loved it. I willl certainly be back especially given the proximity to the cricket ground. Thank you
