During my stay at Hotel Du Vin & Bistro Brighton, I experienced a blend of comfort and mediocrity. My room was spacious and beautifully decorated, featuring a large bathroom with a bath and walk-in shower, which I loved. However, I found the dining experience underwhelming, particularly the communication regarding meal inclusion. Overall, the hotel has potential with its great ambiance and location, but it needs to refine some areas to enhance the guest experience.

I had mixed feelings about my stay at Hotel Du Vin & Bistro Brighton. On one hand, the location is fantastic for exploring both the beach and the lanes, and the food in the Bistro was quite good. On the other hand, my room was rather disappointing; it felt cold and unclean, with several maintenance issues that needed attention. Overall, while I appreciated the elegant decor and the quality of service, I expected more from a hotel in this price range.

My room was not only cold but also showed signs of wear, with issues like a broken heating system and dirty windows. There were paint stains on the carpet which contributed to a shabby atmosphere. This was disappointing given the hotel's claims of high-quality standards.

The overall experience was enjoyable, thanks to the polite staff and good food, though some finer details could definitely improve.
