We've stayed at The View several times, it does everything well and has been consistent over many years. There's nothing quaint, or exceptional, but it is all you need, the breakfasts and Sunday lunches are excellent

The hotel was a really nice place to stay. We were in Eastbourne for the tennis and it was close to that and we had a beautiful view of the seafront. The room was quite spacious and the breakfast was very nice. We also visited the cafe for dinner one night and used the gym. Had a really enjoyable stay here and would recommend.

This feels far more like a 4* hotel than a 3*. The room was perfectly clean, a good size, with a comfortable bed and perfectly adequate amenities. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly throughout. Highly recommended.

Really nice hotel, nice lobby, nice bar area, nice restaurant , the only thing letting it done was our bath shower screen. The bottom trim had nasty blacky/green mould on it, we were only there for the one night so there was no point in complaining about it & moving rooms.
