We stayed here for just one night prior to taking the ferry from Newhaven to Dieppe, we'd love to have stayed longer. Pelham House is ideally situated in the centre of Lewes. The building is lovely and staff were unfailingly smiling and with a happy-to-help attitude. The room we were originally allocated was on the second floor and had lovely... More

Down in Lewes for a 60th and wanting to explore the area, we settled on Pelham House for 2 nights and one evening meal. Couldn't have chosen better. Lovely old place, lots of friendly staff, big on character, decent sized garden. Had evening meal which was excellent, not too pricey so we spent the rest our budget on the wine.... More

We stayed at Pelham House for three nights while helping my elderly father-in-law to clear his house. While not looking for a holiday we found that the care and attention of the staff were extremely helpful at a difficult time. I would definitely recommend the hotel and hope to go back for a more relaxing break! The room was comfortable... More

This hotel is located in the centre of town close to the Norman Castle and is convenient for exploring the interesting old buildings and streets of Lewes. Our room, in the main building, was quite small but stylish. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the food at dinner and breakfast. We hope to visit again soon.

Friendly and helpful staff. (Offered to help us take luggage to room).Well-appointed room. Comfortable bed. Delicious breakfast (particularly recommend the dried fruit compote). What more could you ask? Cannot comment on value as we were guests.

The staff here were unfailingly helpful and friendly. Maybe that is why funeral parties seem to be a speciality here; we arrived with one and it was the same the last time our friends stayed here. Our ground floor room was in a converted garage across the car park from the main entrance. Consequently, all arrivals and departures were able... More

I had originally planned to go to Shelleys but switched to Pelham because they start breakfast at 7.00 and I needed to leave by 7.30. It is a slightly unusual hotel having been the Town Hall in an earlier life. My room was a decent size with a view over the gardens. Internet worked well, I had a very nice... More

As is usual for me, this is another corporate one night stay. Had a very professional greeting by reception and then a spacious double looking south over the grounds to the South Downs. One thing to note; prebook parking. It is limited, I didn't but was fortunate to get a space on a quiet Tuesday night. I had comfortable bed,... More

We arrived in the evening and were really looking forward to the night.Reception were friendly but didn't advise there was a bar serving reasonable food and just informed us of the formal a la carte. We didn't fancy the a la carte menu so ate out which was their loss.We didn't discover the bar served food until we returned later.Queued... More
