The rooms were very dusty and tiles in bathroom could do with some mould spray and a scrub. We had trouble getting robes and slippers sent to the room and then when they sent them they forgot slippers and 1 of the robes and we was nearly late for our treatment as was told to wait in our rooms for them. Reception team could have been more welcoming and smiley.

The staff were lovely and accommodating, the room was lovely and spacious. The water was not hot enough even after following the advice of the hotel so showers and baths were disappointing. The breakfast was okay however when ordered to room it arrived late and cold twice. The hotel lobby area was lovely

NO HOT WATER. Cheap fatty bacon, ran out of coffee and an ineffective toaster at breakfast. Had to ask three times for a jug of water with our evening meal but got our alcoholic drinks ordered delivered twice. Dirty, worn sofas in the lounge with holes in the Upholstery. Single ply, cheap toilet paper. Definitely not a four star experience.

Everything was clean and tidy, staff helpful and courteous, food pretty good (decent breakfast buffet and dinner menu). A little chilly in the room even with the temp set to 26 but otherwise extremely comfortable room.

I recently stayed at the East Sussex National Golf Hotel and came away genuinely impressed. The hotel was exceptionally clean throughout, which immediately set a positive tone. My room was bright, comfortable, and far more inviting than many local alternatives. Although I could see a patch of roof damage from the window, it only made a minor visual impact and didn’t detract from the overall experience. The staff were a particular highlight. Every interaction made it clear that they are well trained, attentive, and committed to delivering great service. Even with some ongoing building works visible from the dining room, the atmosphere remained relaxed and pleasant. One feature that stood out above almost every hotel I’ve visited was the air conditioning system—quiet, efficient, and remarkably effective. Combined with the general peacefulness of the hotel, it made for an excellent night’s rest. Having stayed at many hotels in the area, including frequent visits to Ashdown Park, I can confidently say the East Sussex National has several advantages. The rooms feel brighter, fresher, and more welcoming, contributing to a more enjoyable overall stay. Would I recommend it? Absolutely. Despite a few cosmetic issues outside, it’s a high-quality, comfortable, and very well-run hotel that’s well worth a visit.
