The seaview is pretty good, The toilet has bad drainage smell on the first night and the hotel team quickly helped us change to another room. Pets stayed here is quite expensive, the food in the restaurant is all right. Parking is a bit tricky on the main road.

The hotel is an older building but very clean and well maintained. The staff at the Lansdowne were superb, all of them. The receptionist was welcoming, the bar staff were friendly and chatty. The restaurant crew were accommodating and professional. On arrival the room was not setup for four, an immediate apology and within 10 minutes the additional bed arrived and made up with care. The hotel has a free pool table that our boys loved.

Family-run hotel with great customer service

The Lansdowne is an amazing family-run hotel in a great location for exploring the scenic town of Eastbourne. The breakfasts are superb and the traditionally furnished lounge is a tranquil spot to while away some time boosted by the backdrop of sensational sea views. The bar menu offers some nice snacks too.The hotel provides reasonably priced parking permits so you can park opposite the hotel.
The scenery in Eastbourne is amazing.
The pier is an amazing focal point.
The architecture in Eastbourne is so elegant.
