The View Hotel has fantastic seafront rooms which make the most of the view along the promenade from the pier along to the start of the South Downs. The room was clean and comfortable and in the morning the breakfast was very well set out for an efficient start to the day.

Very enjoyable. Lovely spacious room with view over the sea. Would have preferred a less firm mattress. Breakfast well presented and plentiful with a lot of choice but quality of bread and juice could have been better.
