The hotel is well situated between the beach portion, the pier and the lanes shopping. The hotel is showing it's age but the rooms are clean and big enough. Parking is a bit of a nightmare given it's using the public carpark of the lanes.

I stayed here in April 2012, I have to say the rooms were immaculate, the staff was very helpful and courteous, but I wouldn’t expect anything else, location is brilliant. If I was to complain about anything it would be the Bar Prices are a bit extortionate you could get the same drinks down the road in the local pub... More

My wife wanted to see Brighton and never stop reminding me about it. Finally we get the chance and took it. This trip was well worth it. We have chosen Thistle Hotel in Brighton mainly because of its location. We only had two days off to spend for the trip and so we had very limited time to see and... More

This hotel is one of the best in Brighton in a really decent position near the pier at the front and the Lanes to the rear. Rooms are of a high standard. Our standard double had a leather sofa, tea, coffee & biscuits and large flat screen TV.It doesn't look great from outside, but is fresh, clean and airy inside.... More

We stayed here for four nights in April 2012 and enjoyed our visit. The location can't be beat: right on the seafront and next to The Lanes for shopping. The front desk staff were very kind and the breakfast was superb: omelettes and waffles made to order, fresh juice and countless choices. Our room faced the inner courtyard which would... More

Hotels in Brighton, with the exception of the five star ones, tend to be expensive, second rate and unclean and sometimes right out of Faulty Towers. I was delighted with my two night stay a couple of days ago at the Brighton Thistle. Finally a Hotel with modern, American style bathrooms, spotlessly clean rooms and best of all, everyone from...

It was their secret hotel.Dont bother booking these deals as we would have paid less if we had booked directly with The Thistle hotel.Arrived Saturday afternoon at 2pm and went to the car park.No spaces had to drive round and round.Very expensive £20...

Had a groupon deal - Afternoon tea for two, use of spa facilities and free car parking under the hotel - £17. After reading earlier views I warned my friend not to get too excited. No need to worry. We were greeted by a very cheeky welshman in the spa suite that explained everything. The swimming pool, steam room and... More

Fantastic location as quite a lot of the rooms have sea views so definitely request one! It is smack bang in the heart of Brighton so it is ideal shopping location! There is also parking underneath the hotel but this is fairly expensive. Be careful if you've got a big car as the curbs can be tight. We mixed our... More
