My family have stayed at this hotel numeroous times and I am glad to say that it is as good as it was with the previous owners. Maria is a fantastic manager and nothing is too much trouble for her, she meets you with a happy smiling face and it never disappears. The rooms are comfortable and sufficient, the rooms... More

The Alexandra Hotel is extremely friendly and comfortable. Maria offered me a cup of tea as soon as I arrived. The waitresses Dahlia and Viktroa are very friendly, efficient and nothing is too much trouble for them. My room was adequate with a very comfortable bed. The food was excellent, although as I was there for ten days could have... More

I booked through a church group and was told it was good value, clean and the owners a couple were fantastic. But it has recently changed hands and was awful. We were charged more than quoted when it was booked. The room said"sea view" but this was only possible by standing next to the window. The single room was a... More

I organised a group holiday for 43 senior citizens at this hotel. and we stayed from 15 to 19 April 2013. We received a very warm welcome with tea and cake while our cases were taken to our rooms. Everyone of our party was fully satisfied with their accomodation and the cleanliness of their rooms and the hotel in general.... More

The Alexandra Hotel under new management offers excellent value for money. Staff extremely thoughtful and friendly, would go the extra mile. The pace suit guests needing a relaxing and gentile holiday. Perfect town position overlooking directly onto the calm seafront, not too close to the noisy Eastbourne Pier but near to the Wishing Tower and Museum end. Few minutes walk... More

Grand view of the beach from my cramped top-floor garret (sea view single bedroom with en-suite shower/wc) but the hotel features a clanking, possibly steam-driven elevator lift. The size of a telephone booth, for the past hundred years it hasn't responded to requests from people outside, while in motion. You must repeatedly press a button in hopes that one of... More

We stayed at the Alexandra hotel as a base for some South Downs walking. Considering what we paid for a sea front hotel, I thought it was reasonably good value. The room was very "tired" but clean and the shower was hot and there was a TV and some tea and coffee. The location is very good and although there... More

For the price I didn't expect plush surroundings, and that was the right expectation to have, as it turns out. The rooms are spacious and clean, but the decor is dated throughout - including in the communal areas and dining room. It reminded me more of a retirement home than a hotel, but as the manager/owner was keen to point... More
