      "A Pleasant Stay" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 25, 2013

      Excellent location accessible to shopping and public transportation. Great English breakfast; staff friendly. But the facility is outdated; narrow hallway, old elevator; bathroom door does not close. Need upgrading.

      "Owner is extremely helpful and accommodating" Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 3, 2013

      Was greeted with a big smile. The owner Andrew was very friendly and helpful in suggesting places to park and things to see and do, even emailed me before the stay just to check if everything is ok. Breakfast was of very decent quality and with great variety, too. The B&B is recently reopened followed by a refurbishment so the rooms are very nice and clean. Only let down was that the walls are a bit thin, as I could hear below snoring and talking in the room below ours, might just be our room though. Overall very pleasant stay, would definitely recommend.

    We had a brief but pleasant stay at The Sheldon in March 2013 (2 adults & a 4yr old). The room was comfortable and clean, the included breakfast was enjoyable and the location, close to the town and seafront, was very convenient. What stood out the most however was attitude and service provided by all the staff we met, who were positive, helpful and […] efficient across the board. It was a pleasure to stay. We would have rated the hotel itself 5/5 in all categoriesbut for a brief fault with the boiler during our stay which meant my partner was forced to take a freezing shower on a snowy day ( I believe this was fixed shortly afterwards and we were offered a sincere apology). If we stay in Eastbourne again, we will stay at The Sheldon. Read more

    I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, the owners couldn't do enough to make my stay comfortable and even bought some decaf tea for my breakfast :) Unfortunately my radiator played up over night so that interrupted my sleep (however the owners repaired it the next day!). Breakfast was lovely and although my room was somewhat small, it was very comfort […] able. Read more

    We really enjoyed our stay at The Sheldon and do so again. Staff were all very helpful and polite and cheerful. Lovely decor, furnishings etc. I will add though if you are unable to park in the car park provided, then park on the street will require a pay at the meter ticket. Thank you to all at The Sheldon.

    The bedroom was cramped and needed refurbishing. The bathroom was very poor with no shower and a sloping ceiling which meant standing room in less than half the room.There was barely room to sit on the toilet. There was no desk as per your advert. This is a budget hotel and not worth the money.

    We were first given a top floor room which only had a bath and had sloped celings making it not ideal for a taller person, but when we mentioned this the owner kindly let us move to an alternative room which was much more spacious and with a shower. Very enjoyable stay, well located near seafront and amenties and excellent cooked breakfast.

    I was a lone trveller thus only in a single room. Can't say what the double rooms were like but if they were the same standard then is to be highly recommended. Staff were courtious and friendly. Especial thanks to the two waitresses who were charming and helpful; very polite and they could teach a thing or two to the 'staff' here in Perth. The room […] was small but functional and I welcomed the daily tidy round carried out each day. The breakfast was superb and far exceeded my expectations. A great hotel for the short period I was there. Read more

    Not a hotel for business travellers as breakfast is not available until 8am. I would have been happier if the cost of the breakfast had been refunded, but there was no flexibility. Also, no ironing board. I was informed the bed should be used.

    I travel quite frequently so I do my share of hotels per year. This hotel was quite nice and I would stay there again. The location was ideal, the room had the basic stuff you need apart, the breakfast was great. On the downside the room was quite small and I was lacking a workdesk. I was staying in a single ensuite and perhaps that was the reason why. […] Overall I had a very pleasant stay an the staff was friendly and helpful. Read more

    Persoonallinen huone oli ylimmässä kerroksessa, kapeiden portaiden päässä. Ongelmana lähinnä katon kaltevuus, suihkussa ei voinut seisoa, vaan joutui istumaan ammeessa. Aamiaistarjoilu oli oikein ystävällistä, ruoka kuumana pöytään.

    Das Hotel eignet sichi nicht für Geschäftsleute, da nur WiFi im EG und 1. Floor vorhanden ist (schlechter Empfang im 2. Floor). Wie (leider) üblich in den Hotels hat das Personal über die technischen Einrichtungen (WiFi) wenig bis keine Ahnung (Netzausfälle). Das Zimmer war äusserst eng, die Dusche völlig unbrauchbar (absolut kein Wasserdruck). Das […] Badezimmer kann nicht zu zweit benutzt werden, weil es dafür einfach keinen Platz gibt. Das Zimmer versprühte einen sehr eigenartigen abgestandenen Duft (von der Farbe stammend, die bei der Renovation verwendet worden war). Das Morgenbuffet ist für mitteleuropäische Verhältnisse klar ungenügend! Das Personal war sehr nett und gab sich sehr Mühe. Dennoch ist uns unklar, warum dieses Hotel 4 Sterne aufweist - die Einrichtungen etc. sind dessen klar nicht würdig. Das Hotel ist günstig gelegen in der Nähe der Eilnkaufsmeile (ca. 10 Minuten zu gehen). Am Pier ist man noch schneller. Fazit: - sehr nettes Personal, das sich sehr Mühe gibt - Hotel liegt verkehrstechnisch günstig Nähe des Piers - Zimmer eng, Dusche noch enger, Komfort im Zimmer ungenügend (z.B. Garderobe). - Morgenbuffet mangelhaft für mitteleuropäische Verhältnisse (vielleicht sind wir hier auch zu anspruchsvoll gewesen). - für Geschäftsleute nicht geeignet, die auf WiFi angewiesen sind im Zimmer (keine Möglichkeit, den Laptop zu platzieren, hat keinen Tisch etc.). - Preis Leistung unserers Erachtens nicht werthaltig - Wir würden dieses Hotel nicht nochmals buchen.
