Newhaven hotel

On our arrival the entrance was covered in litter, cigarette ends and detritus from the restaurant/bar next door. Our room was generally clean but the NOT the bathroom. The lavatory had not been flushed from its last use and therefore cannot have been cleaned. There was only enough milk for one cup of tea each ie either the evening or the morning. No decaf was available.

Without a vehicle there are a limited number of places to stay near the Newhaven/Dieppe ferry. A previous stay in a private suite proved very unsatisfactory, but reviews I’d read of the Premier Inn weren’t encouraging. However, my seven night stay was very good. Apparently a room refurbishment recently took place and I had no complaints. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The Inn is next to a Sainsbury’s where I went every morning to the Costa for breakfast. I’m a light sleeper but found the room very quiet - and the excellent blackout drapes made for a darkened room which I need. I booked a standard room but apparently a premium plus room includes a fridge, which I would have appreciated. I have family in the area so I’ll definitely return and stay here again. It’s a short walk to a bus stop at which you can get the number 12 Coaster bus which follows the coast to Eastbourne in one direction and Brighton in the other. A lovely route. The Newhaven Town railway station is close by too. Newhaven Cabs are also a friendly service if needed. Both the Inn and Sainsbury’s have a direct line. All in all I couldn’t have been more satisfied for the price I paid.

Great location, easy access to Brighton and Eastbourne (45 either way). Have stayed at this hotel before but it is obvious standards have dropped from previous visits.

Perfectly Ok for an overnight stay, clean pleasant staff and easy for a stay before Ferry to Dieppe but avoid the drove pub next door

Very friendly staff and the brewers fayre next door is a welcome addition. My room was comfortable, clean and well located away from the car park and therefore lovely and quiet.
