I regularly stay at the Kelvin and I always have a fantastic time, the room was spotless and the breakfast was great! The atmosphere is great and I wouldn't stay anywhere else. I will definitely be going back there on my travels from Lancashire just as soon as I can! More

No reception - no name given by the person who took me to my room. No, not the Double Executive which I had reserved but one up... More

Anyway, we were in Brighton for sightseeing and partying and we used the room only... More
