Thanks to Andrew and the staff for making our stay so enjoyable. Location is fantastic, the parking they recommended (regency) was spot on. The hotel is quirky, the rooms have been renovated to make the best use of awkward spaces. We were in the twin room and we felt like naughty schoolgirls as the room was like a cozy boarding... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the oriental and would particularly compliment them on there professional and friendly service. Our room and bed in particular was were extremely comfortable. I would not hesitate to reccomend them in the future. The location of the hotel and their inside local knowledge made our stay in Brighton all the better. Matthew O'Leary More

Staying at the Orient was a real pleasurable experience. The staff were wonderful, the room very comfortable and the food was fantastic. The quality of products provided, shampoo, body bath cream and lotion was of excellent quality. The only request I would make is fresh drinking water and tissus to be provided in every room. More

We are glad you liked the Oriental and its location, plus our parking recommendation. However we are disappointed to note that you did not enjoy your massage. We will pass this onto the masseur but incidentally in March we moved over to a new massage company, details of which will be on our website this week, who we feel offer... More

Stayed at The Oriental in April 2012. Bed and room was nice. Tv did not work properly. Water in shower was a light drizzle and not the full on shower. Breakfast very good. Recommended but must be freezing in the winter with gaping single glazing windows. More

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Oriental mid-week just before Easter. Andrew was very welcoming and delightfully sneaky in helping me to arrange champagne on arrival. Our room (superior with balcony) was lovely and relaxing. Plenty big enough though I suspect the others were smaller. That's what you get in a converted house like this though. Road was really...

Thanks for the lovely review, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay and that we could help with your special champagne requirements. Since you ask, I can advise that the Oriental is located in a Grade II* listed terrace designed by Amon Henry Wilds, who designed several key streets in Brighton and whose signature ammonite capitals and shells can be...

The people at The Oriental are really lovely and helpful. The room was clean and quiet, the only thing I didn't like was the mattress, which was too hard for me, but this is just me. The breakfast was great and Andrew such a nice person! If they had rooms with softer mattresses I would definiteyl come back :) More
