Ce qu'en disent des voyageurs

L'Old Ship Hotel est salué pour son emplacement en bord de mer, sa situation centrale et son personnel accueillant, mais de nombreux commentaires décrivent des chambres vieillottes, des intérieurs usés et des problèmes d'entretien. Le bruit et le contrôle de la température peuvent également affecter le confort, surtout dans les chambres donnant sur la mer ou pendant les mois plus chauds.

Les clients apprécient souvent le caractère historique du bâtiment, la vue sur la mer et l'accès facile aux Lanes et à la jetée. La propreté et l'entretien sont variables : on note fréquemment des signalements de peinture écaillée, de moquettes usées, d'humidité ou de moisissures, ainsi qu'une eau chaude ou une pression de douche irrégulières. Le petit-déjeuner varie de très bon à médiocre, et les équipements tels que les petits ascenseurs anciens et le parking limité et payant suscitent des opinions divergentes. Attendez-vous à un établissement plein de caractère dans un emplacement de choix plutôt qu'à un séjour moderne et soigné.

The views across the sea are lovely. It's a busy road at times with and with no air con in the room meant windows had to be open in the summer sun. The hotel provides ear plugs though which are a life saver and made for a good night's sleep! The bar is busy with entertainment until the early evening and the drinks are well priced.

Hotel is still run down - especially in the common areas. Only 2 very small and slow lifts. Room was nice and big with nice bed. Man on reception was very pleasant and checked me in quickly.

Ok stay at the Old Ship. No parking available and wasn't able to check into room at 2pm on arrival so didnt get it until returned at 6pm. No early check in for platimum guests. Room was average and dated, probably Worth paying for a deluxe room if return. Love the location of the hotel but it dies need a bit of renovation soon.

All the staff from check in to the bar in the evening were super friendly and helpful. This is an old building and so has a tiny lift which does the job. The restaurant/bar area are really nice, warm and comfy places to sit. The rooms i found a little out dated, with old brown furniture. The bed needs to be replaced and you need to give the pipes in the shower time to kick in. The carpet is getting very worn in places. This being said it was a cheap hotel for our little brighton getaway and it did the job..

Amazing sea view and great bar - we had such a lovely stay. Part of its charm is that it’s a bit rough around the edges - if you want brand new and shiny there are plenty of places nearby. This hotel is full of character and history - we loved it.

Good location . This hotel is of age. Breakfast was average and we needed to ask for cooked food to be refilled . There was no choice of eggs or mushrooms . The toast machine took ages to brown. The parking is convenient under the hotel and of a good price .

Stayed for one night and arrived in the early hours of the morning otherwise would have spoken to staff about the main issue below. Location is brilliant, staff on reception were lovely, accessibility isn’t great with lots of little staircases on way to the room and narrow doorways. Building is very tired - lots of peeling paint on the window frames and other woodwork. Main issue was a very bright and fresh spot of blood on the bedding when we pulled the duvet back, made me wonder whether sheets had been changed or not. There are great elements of the hotel, even being tired is not an issue if you know what to expect, but I probably wouldn’t stay again despite the great location and friendly staff, sorry.

Hotel staff good, helpful and friendly. The hotel itself is very shabby from the ouside, lots of rising damp in front elevation. Our room 318 was facing the sea which was nice but windows dirty on outside again damp behind radiator, bits of mouldy plaster on floor see photo, desk in room was in need of TLC, top had lots of blisters see photo, but what made the room really tired was the head board it needs throwing away see photo, carpets throughout have seen better days and threadbare in parts.In general the whole area of Brighton was very tired.We did enjoy the pubs and hotel bar,and had a nice weekend. Parking very exoensive also

Good points - location on the sea front, comparably cheap, all staff friendly, quick check in and out. Breakfast is basic but ok. Not so good points - whole hotel very dated and in desperate need of modernisation and repair, carpet on stairs 'fixed' with duct tape, our room had wallpaper loose off walls, peeling paint, faded pictures, missing coat hangers, no Air Conditioning but window opening restricted to about 6 inches, poor shower pressure and either hot or cold and impossible to get a constant temperature, bath tap not working and leak in bathroom sink, only a vent in the bathroom not an extractor fan. Really bad - East side of hotel is above a nightclub that blasts 'music' until 3.30am but even then still has crowds of clubbers outside shouting at each other (obviously deafened by the music volume in the club!). I will never stay here again

Hotel was awful, electrics in the room did not work, bed was horrific, when complained I was told ‘I’m not an electrician what do you want me to do’ then I was moved rooms to a room with constant foot traffic going past, then moved back and given a plug in fan as their retro ‘air con’ did not work (due to electrics not working). Checked out at 6am and will never go back. Awful hotel, awful staff. I was given a 50% refund and I am now in the process of requesting the final 50% to be issued as I did not get any sleep.

Had a really lovely time staying here for 1 night. Staff are very helpful and polite. Room was amazing. Yes it is an old building so there is going to be some tied look in places. The only down side is the parking if you can get in the hotel parking ( limited spaces ) its 25 pounds for the night . Apart from the parking which i went off one of the side streets and found somewhere but just to warn you its not easy. Had an evening meal at the hotel and it was very good and great value for money. I would recommend this hotel but the parking may be an issue for some people.

The hotel is historical and old but rooms are comfortable and clean and has all the facilities needed…..bar, restaurant, guests lounge etc. Bathrooms are modern and nicely presented. It’s not 5 star but then again neither are the room rates. Good value, comfortable and a lovely place to stay to enjoy everything Brighton has to offer.

The location was good. The room was clean and generously sized. Check-in was slow - long time before receptionist acknowledged my presence. Straightforward subsequently. Menu looked exciting. However, the food when served was very poor and did not match the menu description. eg triple cooked chips were (admitted by the manager when challenged) simlply oven cooked frozen chips. OK to stay here but eat somewhere else.

This is very difficult, the building is old and in poor repair in places. But this is not hidden and really is part of the charm of the hotel. One large criticism is the quality of the breakfast. One pot of tea or coffee which you can get just over one cup of it. Eggs limited to fried only, no scrambled or poached option. Service was poor, with the drinks taking 20 minutes to arrive.
