Hotel Dekat The Ellipse

"Wonderful small hotel in Kemptown. Beautifully presented. Spacious room with side sea view. Separate bath as well shower. Good selection at breakfast. Cocktails in fridge along with fresh milk for tea and coffee. Friendly and helpful staff. Very short walk to beach, a bit further into the centre of Brighton. Highly recommend"

"Excellent view of the sea from our room. Friendly staff. Great latte art and excellent breakfast. Very accommodating. I would definitely stay there again."

"Single room was quite compact, but comfortable. Breakfast was lovely."

"We had a very quick check in despite being told we couldnt until 3pm so that was a nice surprise when we arrived early and got to our room in good time but Sadly for the price of a deluxe double room we didn’t get any breakfast included which we’ve never had happen before so unfortunately we had to get food outside to our preference but we did eat a very nice lunch Buddha bowl in the dining room area and was very tasty despite not having any grilled tofu which was on the menu but did not have...

"Nicely decorated and very clean, cramped and cold though. In a fairly grubby part of town. Very overlooked by other buildings into room. Staff assistance was prompt but there is no in person presence. Quiet at night and good black out blinds. "

"Staff were lovely, as was breakfast and the bar. But the rooms and decor are the key feature of this hotel and certainly make it unforgettable. Our room and bathroom were not huge but more than adequate and comfortable. The theming of the rooms, corridors, stairways and bar area is amazing, thoughtful, creative and makes this hotel worth a stay for sure, as does the cheeky nature and sense of humour. We will likely be back just to try a different room! Thanks"

"Room key wouldn't work as kept near bank card"

"Great location served by local bus route from centre of town. Convenient cafes and eateries within walking distance as well as the beach front."

"Lovely stay good value, helpful staff. Room was good size, fab bathroom, l’occitane toiletries. Hottest day of the year, my room was beautifully cool for which I was very grateful. "

"Good room with classic Brighton sea view. Clean and well maintained."

"Amazing place to stay, great location and friendly customer service! Will definitely be staying again, thanks so much x"

"A terrific hotel with lovely staff, great rooms, and an ideal location. Possibly the best/comfiest sleep we've had at a hotel."

"Location great. Easy access. Not worth the money they ask. Smell of urine in stairwell. No hot water for shower in morning. Shower head coming off wall. Thick dust on bathroom towel rail. Stained carpet. Has potential, but clearly not checked for consistent level of quality. Disappointed "

"I'll definitely stay there again"

"We stayed in room on the top floor. Room was cosy, comfortable, clean and quiet. Welcomed by host on arrival and had lovely breakfast in the morning. Perfect location for a short walk into town."

"Nice clean apartment with a nice layout."

"Hotel staff were great. Room was fine. Bathroom needed a lot of work. But you get what you pay for £60 for 1 night in Brighton not bad. Thanks for a warm welcome and a good sleep."

"The hotel staff were amazing. We were there for the marathon and they allowed us to leave our luggage and then let us return later for a shower. It was an unexpected treat which we were so grateful for as it allowed us to freshen up and not have to drive home sweaty. Thank you"

"It was perfect for a long weekend getaway. The location was great, and it was quiet and peaceful, even when the rest of the city was having a good time. My room was called Indulgence, and I was lucky to have a view, with large windows, of the sea and the small park outside. This proved to be extra useful as I wasn't feeling well one of the days and spent it fully in the room. Within walking distance to cafes, restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Appreciated having a small mini fridge, a tea kettle,...
