My wife and I made a short visit to see family at the beginning of May. We were welcomed on a Friday evening by the opening ceremony of an exhibition of local photography hosted by the hotel. Despite this there was still a charming and friendly welcome, including two glasses of champagne from the event! My point is that there... More

I stayed at Da Vinci last year after walking the Seven Sister's during the day. Loved the hotel and the staff were so friendly we sat drinking with them in the evening. The rooms were decorated very well although needed a bit of a spruce in places, although that has all been done according to Facebook. Lovely stay, highly recommend.

We spent a night in the da Vinci. The building is beautiful and very well situated, close to the beach and the shopping center and restaurants. You get all the feeling of lovely Eastbourne around. Our room was small, I could hardly fit into the shower cubicle, given the age of the building which is classified, don't expect double glazing... More

We stayed in the Monet room, which was mostly blue, therefor not so cozy. Our room was quite big, it had a big television, a good bed and even sitting area and a desk. The bathroom looked good, but the tap had really low water pressure. The shower was fine. At night you can hear the other guests if they... More

Thank you very much for your review of the Monet room which has three white walls and one blue wall. In fact all of our rooms have three white walls and one feature wall which we acknowledge might not be to everyone’s taste. Please feel free to negotiate a colour next time and we will be very happy to try... More

Given the choice to stay here again or a standard cheap brand name hotel I would take my chances with the latter. The hotel is decorated with all the style and panache of a mid life crysis, the money hemorrhaged on the "art" theme would have been better spent on the basics, new carpets and appointing the rooms with improved...

Thank you for your review and your kind comments especially since you conclude by confirming that you would return. Regarding the corridors and stairs, I have to raise my hands and agree. It was our intention to work on these this winter but it has not been possible as we have been busy dealing with water leaks and falling ceilings.... More

Reception/Bar areas imaginative, friendly and efficient greeting. Grade 2 listed building. Corridors & Staircase let the hotel down. Large and bright rooms, pleasant clean and functional en-suite with plenty of hot water. Breakfast good selection, freshly cooked, service a bit disorganised when busy - go early. Overall a pleasant stay, would return.

The da Vinci is ideally situated in Howard Square just off the sea front and just around the corner from the Devonshire Theatre, the Congress Theatre, the Winter Gardens, The Birley Centre and Eastbourne's new arts centre. We are a short walk to the town's shops and a lot of excellent restaurants which we are happy to recommend. The da Vinci has 20 en-suite rooms which each feature a well known (and not so well known) artist. The rooms have all been refurbished and redecorated to a very high standard and each of the rooms is unique so that no two rooms are the same. On the ground floor is the hotel art gallery featuring original art work by local professional artists as well as a resident's lounge (with full licensed facilities), two breakfast rooms and a conference room (which you can hire). ... more   less
