I stayed in this hotel for one night, two triple rooms for my family. Hours after our departure I received an email stating they'd be charging my CC a further £95 room rate for one of the rooms because of damage which they said was 'STAINED BEDDING'. I said that it was ridiculous and that it was not at all... More

When we aqrrive at the burlington on a very wet april saturday we were struck by the gloomy dark walls and how unwelcoming it felt. We were greeted by a receptionist who directed us to our room. We were gob smacked. The room was dated like 1980's decor, tiny and freezing!! My husband try to turn on the radiator- Nothing... More

The exterior of this hotel is spectacular but it is a bit tired on the inside. The room we had was a triple and was huge with a little balcony. The bathroom was spacious and had been updated recently - unlike the rest of the room. The furnishings are all a bit tired but comfortable enough. The bathroom was reasonably... More

The hotel has a great location. Easy to find from the motorway and immediately adjacent to the Leas for a nice evening or morning walk. The small car park is cramped and not really suitable for cars over medium size but on street parking was easy. Reception was efficient and friendly. There were few signs indicating room numbers so it... More

We wanted somewhere to stay overnight ready for an early crossing through the Channel Tunnel. This place seemed well situated and at a good price. We arrived at the hotel early evening. The (rather small) car park was full but on-street parking was no problem. The hotel reception was warm and cosy and the receptionist could not have been more... More

I stayed at the Burlington last month whilst on business, and I am pleased to say I have found a gem of a hotel! The reception staff were very friendly and made me feel very welcome. I had booked a standard double room for single occupancy and was so pleased as I walked into it. The room had obviously been... More
