Tea: Brighton's Best Afternoon Tea

Location: Iconic seafront

Wellness: Soft launch of its spa

“The hotel's grand seafront location in Brighton certainly impresses, and its history seems rich with stories, even earning accolades for its afternoon tea. However, reports of needed maintenance and inconsistent service raise concerns that potential guests should consider. While the location and historical charm are appealing, a look at recent experiences is advisable.”
