Having stayed at this hotel previously with our dog, a year or so ago, my partner and I decided to use it as a base on Saturday night, when we attended a concert at the nearby Congress theatre, and booked ourselves in without the dog. However, at the last minute, there was nobody available to look after the dog, so... More

...we should have checked the reviews before booking a night here back in July. Upon arrival we were met by a not overly friendly receptionist (in her defence we were trying to check in very early) accompanied by a massive great dog.... There was dog hair all over the hallway and this killed it for me straight away. I have... More

We we're directed to the Vernon House Hotel after another hotel had double booked. Our room was like a broom cupboard, no tv, very noisy creaky bed with a mattress that nearly crippled us, the view was of a brick wall, not even a blind up at the bathroom window, Very noisy from the street outside in the small hours....

We stayed at the Vernon House Hotel from 24th to 27th July 2012. We found this hotel very welcomming,spotless with very clean rooms and a comfortable bed. The proprietor Joe was very helpful and pleasant. We were B & B and the breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. The position of the hotel is ideal for beach,theatres,shopping and resaurants....

You could not meet a nicer hotelier than Joe. From the minute we walked through the door we was made to feel welcome and that nothing we asked for would be too much trouble. My friend and I stayed in a twin room which was spacious, light and airy; tall ceilings and simple neutral decor. The en-suite was again spacious... More

I picked this hotel completely at random from those available in Eastbourne and I feel incredibly lucky to have discovered this gem. Jo (the owner) is one of the most friendly, interesting and helpful people I've ever met. He and his family catered for our every need while we were with them for three nights. The rooms were clean, had... More

I was going through the mixed reviews and i thought, i should share my thought as many customers may find it difficult to trust whose comments are true.. the dismissed chef or the owner or other customers.. I was there for the Queens Diamond Jubilee weekend with my wife and we found the place very nice. First of all we... More
