DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole

DoubleTree by Hilton Brighton Metropole

10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful stay here in Aug 2026. Lovely spacious family room. Very stylish, well maintained and ckean. Comfortable beds, including the children's fold out bed. We all had a good night's sleep. Great location for sea front, west pier, i360. Short walk to town centre / lanes and Brighton Pier. Very impressed with all staff that we encountered, very friendly and helpful and made us feel very comfortable with our stay. Amazing proper customer service at its best. Loved using the pool to cool down after after a hot day exploring Brighton. You do need to be quick with booking a slot after checking in. Handy car park underneath which competitively priced for Brighton. It is tight though - not for a nervy driver or a very big car! Lovely buffet breakfast in the morning. Plenty of options and well stocked even in peak breakfast time in the summer holidays. Would absolutely recommend and stay here again."
