the room was dinky but perfect for one person and convenient to getting everywhere. It was beautifully decorated and the bed was extremely comfortable - hotel standard. The street was quieter than anticipated so I was relieved to get a good night's sleep. Will stay again.

I loved staying here. The room was spacious, bright and immaculately clean. The host was extremely helpful and kind over the phone. Good value and in a good location walking distance from all that I wanted to see. Makes for the perfect stay in Brighton! Thanks so much.

Great stay, eventually!
The stay was great, eventually! I am disabled, therefore cannot manage very narrow stairs, and my room was on the third floor with no toilet! If I wanted to go to the toilet, I would have had to navigate down one set of stairs in the middle of the night! I rang the manager, and he offered me a room on the ground floor with an ensuite bathroom and double bed. But, with an extra charge of £50, which I wasn't prepared to pay. However, my friend paid the extra, as he said he wouldn't sleep if I'd fallen down the stairs! I think this was an unfair charge, especially considering the ground floor room was not booked for any people. The stay was lovely afterwards.

Many thanks for taking the time to leave a review, im always keen to learn if there are areas we can improve our guests experience and I would also like to apologies for any inconvenience caused at the start of your stay.You have booked a single room which comes with a shared toilet. Due to the time of your booking, it wasn’t possible to allocate you closer to it. Had i knew in advance that you have mobility issues i would have tried to come up with options in advance however this was only explained once you had checked in.With regard to the room upgrade charge, although the room was “free” at the time we operate and accept bookings around the clock and it’s not uncommon for same day bookings to arrive. The full amount would have been substantially higher as the ground floor room boasts a balcony overlooking the front garden and is substantially bigger however I did offer a very reduced upgrade charge because of the circumstances. I’m glad to hear that nevertheless you enjoyed your time in the new room.

Fantastic location, being 10 mins to Kemptown and 20 to the Lanes. Right near the seafront also! Very secure and quiet location even on a Saturday night! The facilities are perfect, with robes, fridge and comfy bed. Will be returning here on my next Brughton visit!

Great place to stay
Great place to stay. Recently refurbished to high standards, with every square inch used effectively (it is cosy, but it's a sleeping place). Close to city centre and marina / pier, in a quiet street. Impeccably clean. Fair price for Brighton especially given the great condition of the room.

If this was done and missed by out staff I can only apologies for this oversight.I hope we will have the pleasure of having you stay with us again in the future.

Away for work
Booked this venue as working in Brighton. I knew there was no onsite parking, so parked on Marine Parade, 5 minute walk. This was the most expensive parking I have paid for in Brighton, which was £14.50 for 4 hours. Communication from owners in advance of arrival, with number code to gain access to premises and to room. I was in room 7 on 2nd floor. Stairs of premises (no lift) were steep. Room was lovely (no desk) as was ensuite. Shower was small, I would not be able to bend over and pick up shampoo/soap. For a 1 night stay it was great.

Many thanks for leaving us a review, i'm pleased to read you enjoyed your time with us. With regards to parking, sadly Brighton is quite expensive however a few minutes walk is Buzz Bingo Car Park (or those that require car park, we can recommend the Buzz Bingo car park BN2 0LE) which at the moment charge 18.50 for 24hr period.We hope to see you again in the future.

I've stayed here a couple of times while visiting Brighton. An impeccable small hotel. I like that there is no effective check in as codes to enter the hotel and the room are provided in advance. They have also been great around late check-outs which do come at a small fee. Highly recommended.

Nice conveninet location near the front and Kemptown. Fully 'automated' though so you are sent an access code and see no one your entire stay. I get that its efficient and saves cost but it makes the whole experience pretty soulless - its nice to have an actual human to chat to and get tips for the area etc.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and hope to see you again.All ours rooms come with a guest directory with several tips and information about the local area such as attractions and places to eat. With regards to the automated system it’s done to make the check in process more smooth. Being a small family run hotel we cannot be present 24hr a day however we are available to help with any enquiries by phone and email.

The White House Hotel
My wife and I stayed in room 3 for one night . The room was perfect in every way. Everything that we could have hoped for was provided. It was clean and comfortable. My only beef was the lack of a proper reception. The reception is remote via an intercom. That system did not work and we only got inside because another guest let us in. Aside from that it was great.

Nearly perfect
Very small, but clean and comfortable room. Great communication and easy check in process. I don't think I realised at the time of booking that no breakfast was available at the property which wasn't ideal. Would be great if they could leave some fruit or other breakfast item in the room perhaps... It was also very difficult to find the parking suggested by the property, ended up parking about 1/2km away and cost £18 for 24hrs.
