The Seaview, East Preston

The parking is limited. The food in the restaurant is outstanding and all the staff are lovely.

The room was small but the bed very comfortable. Decent breakfast and a busy bar. Car park is far too small and tight.

Food good bar had goog variety of drinks

For past 5 years we have visited my parents and now my mother only, 4 times a year from US. When the Lamb in Angmering has been unable to accommodate us they recommended Seaview. As a change up we tended to try to stay at other hotels in the area once a year away from the Lamb. The first time we found room 1 with a partial ( really partial) sea view to be very small and we were constantly moving around the bed. After a comment to the housekeeper they showed us Room 2. We booked room 2 online on a subsequent visit which is described as a courtyard view. We stayed in room 2 and found it was a touch noisy as it was above the main entrance and like room 1 overlooked the car park but not too disturbing. To our third visit we again booked online believe it to be Room 2 to find it was room 5 which also has courtyard description but in truth overlooks the yard that deliveries are made, the dumpsters, the kitchen and propane tanks. We obviously tried to change and that was not met with any success. Room 5 is extremely hot and very small. We listened to the kitchen staff banter from breakfast till late into the evening. We were woken by the prior night recycle being dumped at 6 am along with beer keg deliveries. We had a reservation for Seaview booked for January thinking it would be quiet but after this experience we have cancelled that. The staff we would say do the job but we found no recognition that we were current or returning guests to the establishment. No warmth

Small hotel in a residential area close to the beach. Very modern, clean and spacious bar and outside seating area. The room was small but not cramped and was furnished in keeping with the hotels decor. There was a birthday party taking place in the evening but the staff were quietly efficient and spent an appropriate time to check us in. If there is a downside it has to be the car park. It’s small and very awkward to navigate when full - 7 spaces in two separate areas. Not however a reason to ignore this exceptional hotel.
