Kempfield House

Parking was mis-advertised. The hotel explained this is not their issue, and that Hotels.com are responsible for the mis-advertising. The only hotel within 2 miles advertising "Convenient and secure on-site parking". The rooms at the Grand Hotel were only £40 per night more, but they didn't guarantee on-site parking, so I opted for the only hotel which did. My entire decision to stay here was based on secure parking. A quick check of Street View, and I could see a gate with secure parking behind. On arrival, I discovered there is no parking whatsoever. The only option they have is to buy vouchers to park on the street (ie: the same as every other hotel in Brighton centre), apparently the secure parking is for permanent residents only, not hotel guests. The room was tired and dusty, but to be honest that would have been fine if I could have parked as advertised. The people were very friendly, and need to contact Hotels.com urgently to have their advertisement made legal! The friendly chap didn't seem bothered though, and doesn't seem to recognise the importance of this. I've checked the advert today and it is still making the same false claim. I will not ask VISA to refund my charge, as my car was undamaged on the roadside, but I would have refused payment to VISA if there had been any damage to my car, as the hotel and/or Hotels.com would have been liable and I would have claimed free accommodation as part of the compensation.

Very nice and big appartment with sideview on the sea and the pier, very good location and we could park the car in the street thanks to the permit

Great location right next to a pub and seafront

Clean, comfy, great service, excellent pub downstairs. Will return. Five stars.

Excellent location for a trip to an event at Brighton Dome (just 10mins away) and stones throw to the beach. Check in is at the pub adjoining. The couple who run the hotel gave us two rooms situated together which was really thoughtful and the rooms were really lovely, bright and spacious. Really enjoyed out stay. I would recommend to make sure you confirm your booking well in advance of your stay.

Lovely stay lovely hosts, welcome chocolate and plenty of tea coffee hot choc even some biscuits. Room looked newly renovated really comfortable bed all really clean Pub next door was lovely and didn’t hear any noise from pub at night even with window open (room was at back of property) only seagulls Definitely would stay again Parking slight problem but once you get permit and find spot it’s fine

Good and very handy for close to the main pier. Parking was also very close and only a little extra at £10. Check in information was a little vague, as it states we needed to contact hotel before hand with more details on booking confirmation. No more info on this and no contact details given. I googled the hotel number and when I got through they seemed surprised I phoned and seemed obvious to them how I had to check in. Why not just put in the first place to check in at the pub to save confusion and time wasting?

Easy comms with the host. Location super convenient. Room clean (some wear & tear to be expected) Was able to purchase parking permit with ease through host. Enjoyed some time in the adjoining pub also run by property host who were very attentive and helpful.

We were in a basement superior twin. It was an excellent sized room, with 2 double beds & the shower was lovely. Just bare in mind you're nextdoor to a pub, so there is noise. Best thing is, can't beat them, join them!! You're within walking distance to everything! So once you've found a parking place, just forget about it & walk everywhere. Parking is on street with a pass you pay £10 for, which covers you for 24hrs. Overall a good stay & would stay again!

Property good position and next to their pub , check in took a long time and problems finding booking do we bought some beers in their pub but unfortunately glasses were not clean. .. rooms where clean . We paid through expedia for room and breakfast rate ..unfortunately despite the delicious menu displayed on bed side tables and proimse of beakfast for all guests , double gusets per room where paid for but no one got up to open pub and give us breakfast..so we had to arrange a taxi to go elsewhere.. When comtacted b and b about the poor service no answer or offer of recompense was given .. Disappointing as this did not feel professional or valueing your paying customers 😕

Stayed for one night property was lovely and clean. Staff were lovely two minutes to the beach. Lots of places to eat. Highly recommend.

Clean, comfy, great service, excellent pub downstairs. Will return. Five stars.

We couldn’t stay as the whole building had a terrible smell, room was so filthy, carpets discussing, bed hard and horrible and all the furniture had stains. I tried to contact hotels . Com to get a refund as the hotel said that’s what we had to do and I’ve had no response be e yet.

Location excellent. Check in was easy and efficient. We went with 2 other couples and everyones rooms varied massively. Room and bathroom very tired looking and not the cleanest

It’s unclean, bad smell , wouldn’t recommend anyone. Also no staff to help you.

Venue was in great location, and great price , Sadly room provided was in need of some maintenence, and the floors needed a good clean, Check in was confusing as was in another building 2 doors down from.venue, host was nice when we saw her, for assistance we were given a whtsapp number to call or text , tho when we tryed to report maintence issues there was no responce, was also garden maintence work going on riught outside our window, overall was ok for the price and locafion .

Super clean and impressive decor.

Very nice and big appartment with sideview on the sea and the pier, very good location and we could park the car in the street thanks to the permit

Excellent location and friendly hosts. They noticed my partner had their leg in a cast/boot and switched us to a ground floor room. It had everything we needed for our getaway, including a fan and heater so we could get the room exactly how we liked it! Only thing to note was the TV didn't work in the room (or at least, we couldn't get it to work!). Very comfy bed and sofa. Highly recommend this hotel, excellent value for money.

Very good value for money. Excellent room. Only downside is street noise of area but that’s Brighton

Excellent location for a trip to an event at Brighton Dome (just 10mins away) and stones throw to the beach. Check in is at the pub adjoining. The couple who run the hotel gave us two rooms situated together which was really thoughtful and the rooms were really lovely, bright and spacious. Really enjoyed out stay. I would recommend to make sure you confirm your booking well in advance of your stay.

Nice room, friendly welcome in the café downstairs to check in. Quiet street after midnight. I slept well. Cozy room with nice furniture.

Very old rooms. The floor squeaks and matters. Was quite uncomfortable. And they did not have a replacement. The location is excellent and it was very quiet.

Friendly customer service. Ropms were much nicer than pictured. Absolute bargain too!

Had a great stay, staff were very helpful. Room was lovely.

Great stay here. Reception and check is in the pub next door. Could do with some secondary glazing to keep the noise down and some net curtains for added privacy.

Nice hotel helpful staff

Great owners of the hotel. Super friendly. Wonderful pub attached to hotel. Relaxing chilled out atmosphere. Will be coming back !

After a long and much delayed trip went to the property to leave luggage. Manager told us to come right in and start our stay 5 hours early!

It was great that this property was just a few hundred meters from the beach front and was pet friendly. The facilities were just fine. The area wasn't quiet because it's a busy area full of bars and restaurants, but with the windows shut, it was fine. I would stay here again if I wanted to be right in the middle of the action at the Brighton beach front.

Stayed for one night property was lovely and clean. Staff were lovely two minutes to the beach. Lots of places to eat. Highly recommend.

Just a stone throw away from the seafront

Great location right next to a pub and seafront

Bargain stay in a perfect place with a great pub next door and beach at the bottom of the street

Quirky! I liked location. Easy walk to the beach front and the Lanes

Perfect location near the beach. Great price for 2 nights. Would definitely stay again.

The location is great close to the sea front and the lanes, it was just fine for us for a weekend break, basic but also reasonably priced.

I loved that the hotel was close to the lanes and the seafront, there are lots of places to eat nearby too! The owner was lovely and was nice that they had the pub next door too so I did pop by for a drink. Inside the hotel had what I needed like kettle, tea, coffee and hot chocolate and the only thing I can think of that would of made it would of if it had a mini fridge so I could store drinks etc inside. I had a wonderful time here with no problems at all and I would stay again.
