“The Southern Belle feels steeped in Brighton's history, but refreshed with a modern sensibility. I imagine lingering evenings downstairs, sampling local ales by the fire, before retreating to a surprisingly luxurious room. Its location near the seafront promises both bustle and bracing sea air, a fine combination for a short break.”

I had a second-floor room. It was big and spacious. the room featured two fans. the bed was large and comfortable. breakfast offered a good variety. I recommend the boxty. the downstairs bar had a nice, quirky design.
my room was located above the bar. this caused some noise until after midnight.

Staff ensured a breakfast bag was prepared for my early morning departure. It was placed outside my door. this demonstrated great attention to guests needing to leave before regular breakfast hours. i found this to be very helpful.
