Boka detta om You want a dirty weekend (in the fun way) or a rock 'n' roll pilgrimage where the decor is as loud as the music.
Varför människor älskar det
- Every room is a different immersive theme, from Star Wars to Pin-up
- The bar serves killer cocktails and doubles as a legendary local hangout
- Unbeatable seafront location on Regency Square
Snabb Överblick: It’s a riotous, slightly worn-around-the-edges party pad where you come to misbehave, not to sleep early.
Recenserat av @liveuptohername: I’ve never stayed anywhere like this! My room was a total Moulin Rouge fantasy with costumes and a giant tub. The whole hotel feels like a rock 'n' roll art gallery. If you want a boring stay, go elsewhere. This place is pure fun and perfect for couples.

Reality check
Some rooms are showing their age with scuffed furniture and 'shabby chic' wear that leans a bit too much on the shabby side.
- You have a sense of humor and hate beige corporate hotels
- You're planning a romantic getaway that involves handcuffs or vinyl records
- You want to be stumbling distance from the beach and Brighton's best nightlife
Renlighet & Underhåll
8
- Housekeeping: Daily service is reliable, but the clutter of themed props makes deep dusting a challenge.
- Bathroom hygiene: Generally good, though older grout and sealant in the bathrooms show the building's age.
- Maintenance: High wear and tear. Expect scuffed paint and creaky floorboards – it's 'shabby chic' in the truest sense.
- Linens & towels: Clean and functional, but don't expect 1000-thread-count Egyptian cotton.
- Odors & scents: Can smell a bit like a mix of old building mustiness and cleaning products, but generally fresh.

“I'm booking for a special occasion and would love one of the larger themed rooms facing the square, specifically 'Rebel Rebel' or 'Koibito Love' if available. We are light sleepers, so a top-floor room away from the bar would be amazing.”
FAQ & Dolda tips
Allt du verkligen vill veta innan du bokar.
Is it really noisy?
Yes, especially on weekends. The bar is a destination in itself. If you want quiet, ask for a top-floor room or stay elsewhere.
Is breakfast included?
Only if you book directly through their website. Otherwise, it's a paid extra, but the 'Bloody Mary Breakfast' is legendary.
Can I park there?
No. You have to park in the public Regency Square car park right in front. It's expensive (£30+) and tight.
Is it family friendly?
Surprisingly, yes. Kids are welcome, and some rooms like DollyWould are spacious. But the vibe is definitely adult-oriented.
Does it have AC?
No. It's a historic Regency building. Windows open, but it can get warm.
How far is the beach?
Literally across the street. You are 30 seconds from the seafront.
Insider-tips
- ✨
Book the 'Lover's Lair' suite for a separate street entrance if you want maximum privacy.
- ✨
The bar offers a 'Cocktail Masterclass' that's a great pre-dinner activity.
- ✨
You can order a 'Lust & Love Hamper' to your room if you want to lean into the hotel's naughty reputation.
5 saker du bör veta innan du åker
💡The lift is incredibly small – if you have huge luggage, you might be taking the stairs.
💡Some of the 'sea views' are partially obstructed by the trees in the square.
💡The 'Single' rooms are genuinely tiny; only book them if you plan to spend zero time in the room.
💡The wifi can be spotty in the rooms with thicker walls.
💡The 'Playstation Bar' isn't about video games; it's just the name of the bar.
