Rooms with character
Port Hotel offers rooms with flat-screen TVs, safety deposit boxes, and soundproof walls. Some rooms feature patios, garden views, or sea views. Bathrooms include walk-in showers, poured concrete sinks, and terrazzo tiling. Parquet floors, tea and coffee makers, and retro kettles add a 1970s-inspired touch.
Local flavors
The hotel's restaurant serves British cuisine, with dishes like sriracha on homemade waffles with smoked hollandaise and the 'duck royale' with a fried duck egg. The bar offers craft beer, local gin, and Sussex wines. Ingredients are sourced locally, including Sussex sparkling wines and Hoogly tea.
Activities and relaxation
Guests can explore Beachy Head, the Seven Sisters cliffs, or Cuckmere Haven. The hotel organizes paddleboarding lessons, picnics, pottery workshops, and walking weekends. DJs and drag queens perform during brunch. The shared lounge has a marble-surround fireplace, and the garden provides outdoor seating.
Seaside location
Port Hotel is on Eastbourne's seafront, a short walk from the Eastbourne Redoubt (0.3 km) and The Story of Eastbourne (0.5 km). London Gatwick Airport is 80 km away. The black and blush exterior stands out, with a sun-trap terrace facing the sea.
Helpful services
The 24-hour front desk assists with luggage storage and local recommendations. Staff provide insights on menus, local produce, and activities. The hotel showcases Sussex art and ceramics. Ironing facilities, heating, and free toiletries are available in rooms.
“This boutique hotel has a distinctive seafront presence, and its recent renovations reflect a commitment to contemporary style with local accents. I appreciate the focus on sourcing local art and produce, which brings a sense of place, and it is clear the hotel provides a unique environment, although some logistics still need to be smoothed out to improve the guest experience.”
