The Leonardo hotel is known and benefits from its name. It seems that staff are not as committed. There is a reticent about this hotel due to it ease in attracting customers. what I found disappointing were 2 things: Firstly, we couldn't get into our room until after 4pm. Given we were only staying one night, I thought that was poor. Secondly, I forgot my charger. a multi-charger. I on arriving home called the hotel to report this. I filled in a form to be told that housekeeping didn't find anything in the room. This is rather strange as the room is shut on leaving so no one except housekeeping would have access. It's the inconvenience and the lack of any desire to help and this seems a theme through how this hotel is run. Not sure I'll be returning sadly.

Lovely family room with enough space for 4. Comfy beds. Breakfast had plenty of choices and we loved the seaside view at breakfast! Gym, pool, steam and sauna facilities were nice. Great location to wander around Brighton from…

Best in Brighton We stay here twice a year and the manger not only gave us an upgrade but came to our room with drinks vouchers and some travel toiletries. The sea view at breakfast is fabulous and the location is literally the best possible in Brighton. Large comfy rooms, lovely bed; great bathroom. We love it here!

Wonderful Staff.

Given how much we paid it would be picky and unreasonable to highlight faults. So I'm going to give praise to all the staff we encountered. Really pleasant people especially the receptionists. I would return 👍😁

The lock on the bathroom door was broken which meant we couldn’t lock the door. There was mould in the bathroom. The breakfast bar was under staffed & when asked for something the staff never wanted to help as they were busy doing something else. The lifts were out of order & they turned off the internet in the morning of check out.
