I stayed here on a last minute short break 3 nights within my price range, apon arrival I realised the website was quite misleading, the staff member seemed more concerned about taking payment and getting back to her phone then welcoming me, I had one of 2 rooms located on the top floor, the room was very small in height,...

Dear Guest, I am sorry if the accommodation was not up to standards - as an older Georgian building we do have rooms of varying sizes, some bigger than others, and I am sorry if the room you were allocated you felt was too small for what you had expected. I have passed on your comments to our General Manager... More

As it was Marathon weekend, finding accommodation wasn't easy. Gulliver's came up in my price range and as it turns out was ideal. The small single room was well heated and very clean with T&C making facilities. I seemed to be the only one using the separate bathrooms and toilets. As I was volunteering at the Marathon a 5:45 breakfast... More

I stayed in the single room with a separate toilet. The size of my room was disappointingly tiny. But worst of all this room is very noisy - the traffic noise from a nearby main street was so loud that I hardly slept at all. The window in my room wasn't double glazed so this did not help matters.

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review and I am sorry if you did not feel it was up to the standards you expected. The single rooms are just a single bed with hand basin, desk and all the facilities, but they are just a single sized room, which is reflected in the cost. The en suite doubles and triples... More

This is was the worst place I have ever stayed in and would not recommend it to anyone. I had booked three nights at this hotel. On my arrival I was placed in the smallest possible single room, with no en-suite which I thought was going to be in the room. To my dismay the bathroom was two levels down.... More

I was very happy staying in Gullivers in Brighton. Very friendly staff, comfortable rooms, great breakfast, and overall good value for the location. 24 hour access is a great plus, and it was encouraged to be used by the staff, who were also more than happy to recommend places to go and see. Only issue is with parking, but that... More

Dear Guest, Thank you for your review and I am so glad you enjoyed your stay. Parking is a problem in Brighton City Centre, however we do have the 24 hour vouchers at £7.50 per voucher, which can be used in the permit bays in the adjoining streets, which is good value for money compared to most parking in Brighton,...

We originally booked a room in the New Steine, for one night, based upon the reviews it had on TripAdvisor. Upon arriving at the hotel, there was some confusion with the room that we had booked and the manager offered us a replacement room in Gullivers.
