Me and 2 of my mates recently returned from the Russell Guest House and had such a lovely time I am already looking into returning in 3 weeks time! We stayed in the family room (number 4) which way plenty big enough for the 3 of us, with a nice hot shower, comfy beds, a television and a lovely view... More

My partner and i had a night away from the kids, we only live 15 mins away but a night off from kids was well needed. The room and bathroom was newly decorated and had a good supply of tea and coffee with yummy chocolate biscuits on the tea tray. The bed was very comfy with really soft sheets and... More

There was flat screen tv. We were able to make tea and coffee right there in our room. Breakfast was tasty. The pretty little square outside made it a... More

the musty smell hits you as you walk in and stays with you all through your stay. rooms were a very poor standard. dont know how it was 3 star awarded. not worth the money charged at all. the only good thing was the breakfast at the near by adelaide house hotel 10/10. More

Me and my partner Sam decided to head to brighton for the weekend and found the Russell Guest House at a great price for two nights which also included breakfast. It was 2 minutes from the beach and 2 minutes into town centre, was perfect. When we first arrived the outside didn't look as attractive or inviting as windows were... More

Stayed here with a couple of friends for the easter weekend. Lovely weather, which was brilliant as the guesthouse is so close to the beach. We stayed in room 4 which has a double and single bed, the beds were really comfy and there was a good supply of tea and coffee and free kit kats in the room and... More

There was an old portable TV. shoved high in the corner. The curtains were hanging off and the window sills were damp. The... More
