A big selling point of this one is its location.
It’s only a two-minute walk from the railway station, so no arduous lugging of luggage or need for a cab.
Plus, Brighton‘s famous Lanes, Royal Pavilion and Churchill Square shopping centre are just five minutes’ walk away, and it is a ten-minute stroll to the seafront.

Free croissants at reception were a nice touch and the staff were helpful and welcoming.
Parking is not provided but there is an NCP car park nearby.
What are the rooms like?
At this 140-room, tenfloor hotel, there is a simple choice of single or double/twin rooms.
We stayed in a top-floor double, which had a great view of the city.
It came with a very generously sized bathroom, with walk-in shower and complimentary toiletries.
Our room also had a flatscreen TV, coffee and tea-making facilities, and free wifi.
Double rooms start from £64.
What is there to eat or drink there?
The restaurant offers classic fare including chicken and chips, pizzas and curries, which were very tasty.
But if you want something more elaborate, you are spoilt for choice in Brighton – from modern Mediterranean eatery Burnt Orange and top gastropub The Ginger Pig, to champagne-and-oysters bar Riddle & Finns.
Plus, the city is a great place for vegans and vegetarians, with Terre A Terre and Food For Friends delivering imaginative and beautifully presented dishes.
What else is there to do at the hotel?
This Ibis branch has a funky and colourful modern reception area, which was designed with the help of a local artist and showcases images created by emerging Brighton talent.
Definitely a place to go back to – it was perfect for a budget city break.
A host of pubs, bars and restaurants are within easy reach, too, so you are right in the heart of the action from the moment you leave the hotel.
Is the hotel family friendly?
Yes, there are plenty of family rooms available.
Is the hotel accessible?
Yes, there are some accessible and wheelchair rooms available.
