Across reviews, Port Hotel is praised for its scenic seafront location, stylish modern rooms, comfortable beds, and freshly cooked breakfasts, with many enjoying sea views, while a few note operational quirks and room differences.
Several reviews note there is no lift, so upper floors involve stairs that can be hard with luggage. Service is very friendly, though some report slow check-in, app-based entry, or limited staff presence at times. On-site food is enjoyed when available, but service days or hours can be limited, and front rooms may pick up traffic noise. A good fit for a short, design-forward coastal stay.

We booked a luxury room for two with a sea view, arriving at 5.30 pm. You have to download an app and enter personal information in order to gain entry. I'm not sure about the privacy when using this app. We were advised there is no staff on duty after 6 pm, and any questions have to be given by WhatsApp—no restaurant for dinner or breakfast. No bar was open, the whole place appeared empty or closed apart from us. Our room was on the 3rd floor, up narrow winding stairs, as there was no lift for guests. The room was fairly small for the price. The bathroom shower was good. There is a lot of traffic noise from the busy main road when staying in the front rooms. There was no ambience during our visit. No staff, no music, no people, no bar, no restaurant. Overall, one night was enough.

My wife and I had an incredible stay at the lovely Port Hotel with a stunning waterfront view providing gently rolling waves for ambience with the windows cracked open. The staff were perfect and the Eastbourne waterfront was everything we'd hoped for an authentic English coastal experience. Although was not an issue for us, be aware there are no elevators so if you book an upper floor then you're in for a good workout getting up and down the stairs daily -- especially getting heavy bags up and down. Overall, 10 out of 10 highly recommend!

Right on the front and a very calm 'vibe'. Powerful shower (town view room) and comfy bed. Had a couple of cocktails in the bar which were nice and the bar is open 24 hours for residents. Staff really helpful both in lead-up and during the stay.

A quirky hotel but no lift, we were on the 3rd floor, no air conditioning so very hot, very small bathroom. This is definitely a young persons hotel.

The hotel was recently renovated and we had a beautiful room with both bath and shower (room 6). The bed was super comfy and the view from the window was fab. With the windows up you can go to sleep listening to the sound of the sea. The only downside was check in was very slow - due to weather everyone arrived at same time but more staff would really help, especially on a Saturday. We were left waiting for 45 minutes and a couple wanting to eat in the restaurant were unable to due to the waiting check in. I guess they're working on logistics and perhaps short staffed. The morning we were departing they got the rooms mixed up and inadvertantly walked in on us as we were getting ready to leave, which was a bit of a shock.

Breakfast is consistently praised as freshly cooked and delicious. Some enjoyed evening dishes and cocktails, but availability and hours can be limited, and on one stay the bar and restaurant were closed.

Zeer fijn kleinschalig hotel op wandelafstand van de pier en stadscentrum. Opstaan en ontbijten met schitterend zeezicht maakt ronde vakantie compleet.

We booked a luxury room for two with a sea view, arriving at 5.30 pm. You have to download an app and enter personal information in order to gain entry. I'm not sure about the privacy when using this app. We were advised there is no staff on duty after 6 pm, and any questions have to be given by WhatsApp—no restaurant for dinner or breakfast. No bar was open, the whole place appeared empty or closed apart from us. Our room was on the 3rd floor, up narrow winding stairs, as there was no lift for guests. The room was fairly small for the price. The bathroom shower was good. There is a lot of traffic noise from the busy main road when staying in the front rooms. There was no ambience during our visit. No staff, no music, no people, no bar, no restaurant. Overall, one night was enough.

Really friendly. Lovely room overlooking the sea. Had the duck burger and wagyu fries and was very tasty. Breakfast was great and overall i really enjoyed the stay. Plus there was parking outside so very handy. Oh and you can see the pier from the window so ask for room 10. Shhh

We came to see the Turner Prize exhibition and had an amazing stay at Port! It’s such a beautiful hotel and all the design touches are wonderful. David on reception was also very friendly and helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast the next day!

Right on the front and a very calm 'vibe'. Powerful shower (town view room) and comfy bed. Had a couple of cocktails in the bar which were nice and the bar is open 24 hours for residents. Staff really helpful both in lead-up and during the stay.

The toilet flush buttons where murky. The next morning, the hot water stopped suddenly while having shower. We got off the shower with soap and no extra water in the room to wash off oneself. We checked out after a rather disappointing stay. The staff were wonderful and ready to help always. They tried to fix the water issue but there wasn't a easy fix.
