The Devonshire Park hotel is a home from home. There is always a warm welcome and the staff cannot do enough to make your stay enjoyable. The food is outstanding and the chef is always happy to cater to special dietary requirements. If you are planning a short winter break or a summer holiday you could not find a more comfortable hotel in Eastbourne.

I stayed at the Devonshire Park on a visit to the Winter Gardens, just over the road. It was a good choice & one I would do again if revisiting.

The hotel is traditional type - lots of corridors & odd shaped layout. But it really was excellent. Well maintained, modern but keeping its character and very good service from the front desk.

The room I had was very good size (think I got an upgrade) and great value. Only comment I could give was that the TV picture on the large LCD TV looked to be analgue & the DAB radio in the room only picked up FM. Seemed a missed opportunity having put so much investment into the rooms, but maybe gearing up for Digital Switchover in 2012.

Breakfast was also good quality. Its cooked to order, so takes a while to come if in a hurry. If you order a newspaper its also delivered to your breakfast table, which I thought was a really good touch. Something to read whilst waiting.

Seaside hotels can often be a little hit & miss. This one was excellent & stands out. A great choice.

Stayed for one night when visiting the Eastbourne Beer Festival at the Winter Gardens. Very pleasant, if slightly quirky room in the loft. Very spacious with a large bed, we got a great nights sleep ( nothing to do with the beer ) followed by a a superb breakfast, all freshly cooked, will definately stay here again if visiting Eastbourne.

This is an exceptionally good hotel in Eastbourne, having tried out the majority of the others over a 2 year period i was working on the Birley Centre for Eastbourne college.
The staff are all very friendly and always helpful, the rooms are spacious well furnished and well kept. The food was very good and always fresh, the breakfast where the best with a good variey. The best thing about the hotel is its very relaxed atmosphere and nothing is too much trouble.
The Hotel is a short walk from the centre of town and the location is ideal for the winter gardens and Congress Theatre, the sea front is about 500 yards from the Hotel door.

Work has taken me elsewhere, but will definitley stay at the Devonshire the next time I am in Eastbourne.
