Drakes Hotel in Brighton and Hove

Amazing hotel. We forgot to ask beforehand, if we could park our bikes safely with the hotel, staff found the perfect sulotion in no time at all. You could really feel their dedication, simply heart warming. The room was unique, bathtub in the middle of the room, the small shower bathroom might not be everybody's taste though. We loved it, though. The Dilsk restaurant is fantastic, be it breakfast or dinner. The upstairs bar is nice and stylish and they had an aged Dalmore Whiskey - amazing drink with the sea at your feet. After 1.000km on our bikes we slightly regretted having no lift. This hotel might not be the best stay if you have difficulties with taking 2 or mor stories.

Charming beachfront boutique hotel! My partner and I decided on a spontaneous weekend getaway in Brighton, and this hotel exceeded our expectations. We enjoyed a delightful breakfast in bed, appreciated the attention to detail, and were impressed by the staff's kindness. It made for a superb stay.

For a whopping 1537 euros I got a small attic room number 19 for four nights. Not particularly clean. With half a view of the pier (if you stand) or of the sea. Air condition on the ceiling as well as windows from the inside and the frames were very dirty. Brittle ledges and cobwebs. No fridge, no elevator, no safe in the room. WiFi so-so. No questions about whether everything is OK, nothing. Breakfast was ok. No buffet! Small selection from the menu. The breakfast staff was just a lady who had to run around because she was alone. But she was very nice. In short, 3 stars would be appropriate here. But 4 star deluxe you expect something different than being accommodated in a workers' room. That was really disappointing. Brighton would love to come back but not in the Hotel Drake!

The room is a bit tiny, but good for few days. Good location, view, nice staff!

Beautiful boutique hotel and service second to none. I’ve stayed at many of the worlds top 5 stars - Rosewood, Mandarin Oriental, Four seasons. Drakes staff are on a similar level with attentiveness, attention to detail and willingness to go above and beyond, and with a genuine smile on their face. Room was great with sea view and beautiful big picturesque windows, bed and pillows made sleep very easy and breakfast which was delicious was served quickly. Baby friendly, clean hotel. Will be back again. Thank you all the staff who made us feel so welcome for my sisters birthday.

I gave it 4 stars only because their WiFi was not on par for business users. Otherwise, 5 stars for a very comfortable stay - the pillows, bedding, the service, the food all great! No lift so staying on 3rd floor may be awkward for those with disability issues. But I am sure Drakes point this out when asked. I opted for a traditional bathroom rather than a wetroom. The stand alone bath in the bedrooms were a little pricey and not my cup of chai but surely appeals to tourists and those on romantic get aways! Maintain your standards Drakes!

Very close to the beach. Friendly staff. Clean rooms. Nothing to complaint.

Amazing bath in the room and the service was excellent. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to stay in Brighton. Watch out for the seagulls!

Great and warm staff, helped a lot with our luggages. Room is really spacious and love the complimentary cow milk, tea bags and hand made cookies! Hotel parking is quite convenient too.

Best place to stay in Brighton. Great hosts. Victor was so helpful. Love you Victor

Well situated hotel close to the Brighton pier. Superb views from the sea front rooms. Some offer a free standing bathtub. Paid parking available nearby.

Unbeatable views over the pier and beach. Stylish room with high quality fittings. Bath in the window is fun! Breakfasts were very good quality too
