8/10 Very good

N/A parking was on the riad behind the hotel.
Peta, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

This hotel is in an excellent position yards from the beach & very close to the centre of St Leonards. The breakfast is excellent value for money with a wide selection of hot & cold options. I would have expected to find an ironing board & iron in the room.
Mark, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A nice traditional hotel with a lot of history. In need of freshening up, but staff are friendly and the rooms are well kept

Derek, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Older hotel in need of refurbishment. Staff was minimal, but very friendly and helpful. Off-season so not a lot of activity. Hotel was otherwise quiet and everything worked.

Niceclean hotel.

10/10 Exceptional

A great classic.

A lovely unspoilt hotel which still has all its classic features and isn’t a bland, generic place. Breakfast is one of the best I’ve had in awhile. It all tasted fresh and didn’t look like it had been sitting around for hours.
Jonathan, 3-night trip

An architectural delight. Great staff.

Hotel quite old and rather tired but OK for the price.

An average stay for a £140 suite

The stay could have been better. Booked a suite but surprised there was no fan. When asked for it, the fans conditioned was not functioning well. No fridge and the shower was decent. Could have been better for 140 quid a night.
Karan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice spacious room. It was hot and there was no air condtioning or fans. Maybe fans could be provided in hot weather

Lovely old dame

Lovely stay at the Royal Victoria hotel which is right on the promenade with great views over the beach. Large buffet breakfast selection and very nice restaurant and bar area.
MELANIE, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Comfy historical hotel.

I loved the hotel, lovely historical place. A little tired in places. Overall the place was worth the money charged. The food at the restaurant was nice.
Cheryl, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Been here a few times. Love the faded grandeur and original early victoriam mahogany everywhere. Plus the staff are always great.
James, 1-night trip

I Victorias feel of the past. A bit tired and needs remodel. Room was very nice with sea view a very comfortable.
RUBEN, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I was pleasantly surprised as the exterior is quite old fashioned. It was very clean and comfortable. The breakfast room had a lovely sea view but the coffee served was very poor and the cooked offerings looked rather tired but there was a good choice of fruit salad, yogurts and pastries. I will return!

The room that was booked for us was a sea view . but it was a cold wet day and heating was not working we asked for a different room away from sea . staff dealt with problem and was upgraded to a suite. could not fault staff all very friendly.
Kenneth, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Confortable stay in a historic setting.

Stayed on a room-only basis. Friendly greeting at the desk, the room was amost like a mini-suite with the bedroom, a second room with chairs, table and tea-making equipment, leading through to the bathroom. No issues with sleeping, bed was comfortable, room spacious, water hot, etc. This is a historic building, just as I like them, quite well maintained, at a very reasonable price point with an attractive and atmospheric interior and a great overall vibe. Not all swish and modern, if that's what you're looking for. I would definitely stay here again. Great views to the front, decent from the rear.
Matthew, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Very bad

It was one of the worst hot I have ever seen. I travelled for 2 hours but ended up 20 years old hotel furnishings. Old carpets, dirty windows, squeeky floor boards, no service. Avoid it at any cost. I don't understand why hotels.com is listing this place.
