Located in the heart of Brighton’s bar, restaurant and arts centre, this hotel is a great mix of ‘old’ and ‘new’ and an overall great spot. We used the gym/spa facilities and although they are small, they are functionally great for what we needed. The staff are lovely and helpful and I would recommend the Leonardo to anyone looking for a nice getaway. I would, however, warn that the parking is quite expensive but.i guess that’s an understandable cost for the convenience.

Great experience all round. But be careful of the parking cost as we had shocking £115 bill for parking after staying a week. But there aren’t really any other options so just be aware of the cost. 😍

New Year stay

We’ve stayed in the hotel many times and always go New Year’s Day for either a night or two Hotel has a nice lobby area to sit and chat with friends. Family rooms are well equipped and this time had a coffee machine with pods. Breakfast was lovely with lots to choose from. A very central hotel to the pier and shops.
