A great place to stay

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 27 Jan 2025
It was quite by accident in 2007, while staying nearby, that I noticed the Devonshire Park Hotel. I decided then that when I came back the next year, I'd stay at the Devonshire Park Hotel. It was a very good decision as I have now stayed here every year (except during covid lockdown) since. I get to England twice a year now that I've retired and this has come to be my home from home. The hotel is perfectly located for my visits as it is near longtime friends.

The hotel is comfortable, in a quiet area, with nice sized rooms that are clean and well maintained. Its a short, pleasant walk from the hotel to the promenade or into the town center. Eastbourne's two theaters are a very close-by too.

The car park is a plus for those of us traveling by car. The WiFi works well and breakfast is top notch. Having a perfectly prepared Full English is a real treat for me. We have nothing like it here in the States.

The staff are always professional and courteous and genuinely friendly which is something you don't experience in most hotels. At times it feels like I'm staying with family.

I'm looking forward to my net visit.

The staff are wonderful, nothing is too much trouble from the minute you arrive. The Devonshire Suite room was spacious, with separate living area, and really comfy bed.

They even arranged a small fridge for our stay at no extra cost, so we could have cold drinks.

Breakfast was fresh cooked, generous portions, and extra helpings of toast! As well as cereals, fresh fruit, yogurts, and pastries.

Couldn't recommend this more.
Thank you very much to all the staff.

Excellent stay. No problems at all. Staff helpful, car parking on site- a real bonus. Would stay again with no hesitation. Breakfast was good quality with plenty of choices. Location is ideal for most activities. Bed was comfortable and there was plenty of hot water in the bathroom.
