Hotel review

A collection of Gothic revival and mock-Tudor buildings (erected by a wine merchant on the site of an old Brighton inn) make up this member of the stylish Hotel du Vin chain of town hotels. In the main building, bizarre gargoyles watch over a double height hall, now housing the wine bar and heavily carved staircase, which are also overlooked by the billiards and gallery. The 37 rooms have a breezy seaside feel and the Loft Suites each have telescopes for spying boats out at sea.
