The service was amazing. Our room was spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. We received an upgrade because the reservation was made as part of my birthday surprise. The hotel is located in the heart of the city, within walking distance of all the main restaurants and shops. We also used the steam room and spa on site to relax. I can't wait to come back again.

I really enjoyed my stay and the hotel was in very good location , hotel was lovely and the massive selling point is the pool and spa , excellent facilities and friendly staff
Only downside was the breakfast didn’t provide many vegan or allergen friendly items and that the heating wasn’t very regulated and felt a little ill front being too overheated in the room and no ventilation
That being said I like love to come back as it’s so close to the sea. The view was amazing xxx

Overall, it's a very new hotel, and it even has a sauna and a pool. They're a bit small, but perfect for a quick dip or relaxation.

Great hotel at a convenient location. Rooms were big, comfortable and clean and staff were friendly.

Hotel is nice however rooms could be cleaner, smell wasn’t great in room. Cost of parking is outrageous so won’t be staying again unfortunately.

This hotel was by far the most disappointing during my trip around London. I specifically requested a quiet room when booking, but they still gave me one on the top floor, right under the air conditioning units. The noise was very loud and disturbed my sleep. On top of that, the hotel staff had a terrible attitude – unhelpful, unenthusiastic, and didn't try to solve any problems. I have to give a bad review to warn others.

I booked for myself and my sister for a night away for our Birthdays.
We had a lovely stay, our room was upgraded and we had a wonderful sea view. We were given a lovely gift which was so kind and thoughtful and really made our stay extra special.
The room was large, with a seating area and a very huge comfy bed.
Everything we needed for a relaxing night away. Robes & Slippers Perfect
Buffet breakfast was very tasty. Staff friendly and helpful.
We shall definitely return.
Thank you so much x

The location was on the right in front of the sea and also had a quick access to the Main Street from the rear entrance. We had a spacious room big enough for 2 bikes and good cooked breakfast in the morning.
Although we had an incident - our luggage didn’t arrive on time prior to stay but they were very helpful to supply amenities and essential information to us.
Would recommend to anyone!

Review of a Fictional Hotel
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5 stars)
Title: A Pleasant Stay with a Few Minor Hiccups
My recent stay at the Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton was, on the whole, a very pleasant experience. The hotel's location is a definite highlight—it’s just a two-minute walk from the bustling Brighton Pier and a stone's throw from some fantastic independent coffee shops and restaurants. This made exploring the city on foot incredibly easy and convenient.
The staff were a particular standout. From the moment we checked in, the front desk team was welcoming, professional, and genuinely helpful. They provided us with a map and some excellent recommendations for local places to eat, which were spot on. Our room was also a great feature; it was spacious, very clean, and the bed was one of the most comfortable I've ever slept in at a hotel.
While my stay was largely positive, there were a couple of minor issues that kept it from being a perfect 5-star experience.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Leonardo Royal Hotel Brighton particularly for those looking for a great location and a comfortable stay. The fantastic staff and clean, well-appointed rooms make it an excellent choice for a weekend getaway. While there are a few small areas for improvement, I would certainly consider staying here again on my next visit to Brighton.

A cosy and friendly restaurant, which we are planning to come back. There are couple of local dishes, which are lacking Spanish spirit, still everything was original, fresh, and delicious! Thank you for a warm evening!

The best tapas in Brighton! Authentic, lovely staff and a great menu. They change the specials weekly and the background music is great. Much better than the other over hyped Brighton tapas restaurants. A hidden gem really as you wouldn't walk past typically.

Absolute rubbish restaurant! I can't stress enough how awful this place is. Staff are rude and ignorant, food is flavourless and practically thrown at you (begrudgingly)! Awful ambience, black walls (Mmmm very Spanish?).I do believe the walls are painted black so that they don't show up the dirt, pretty much sums the place up!
Everything is an effort for them, if you can even get their attention to serve you. I was horrified with the waiter coming over to me and my friend, saying "times up" whilst we were taking our time deciding what to order, and he wasn't joking. After the rubbish food was served, (and it's really bad) we were abandoned. The place was practically empty! Go to Casa Don Carlos which is nearby. Much better! I've lived in Brighton a long time, and believe me this place is not worth visiting. Save your money and have some self respect!!

Great evening!! Excellent service, delicious food (we had goats cheese, pumpkin and blue cheese croquetas, and arroz negro) and amazing selection of ice cream!!! Highly recommended for laid back atmosphere and quality experience.

Great service! And more importantly food is served until late hours. I can truly recommend this restaurant

Yet another lunchtime lovely selection of fresh cooked food. Friendly staff who keep your table clear and clean. Very good value
28.12.2017
This is a really good place to eat especially if you're in a group, the staff are very friendly and accommodating and always happy. The food is excellent quality and plentiful with a wide variety of Chinese, Indian and English food. The sushi bar is top quality and the desserts are awesome especially the chocolate fountains ... marshmallows and chocolate are great. The menu is different for lunch and dinner and at these prices you could afford to do both, if you can eat that much .... for the cost of eating there you need to eat seven plates of food to cover the cost ... it's possible but you can't move afterwards ?, highly recommended place and a must if you're in Brighton for the day
15.12.2017
Days has wheelchair accessibility and has a wide variety of choices for an all you can eat buffet. There is a big choice on vegetarian but not so much on vegan options.
It varies day to day what there can be and there is more choice in the evening then there is at lunch time but for £14 after 5pm it is really worth it.
Sometimes they don't label the food correctly and you need to be careful with that , especially if you have allergies.
The food is really good though

I have been in this restaurant many times. If you plan to go there for a first time I would recommend you to choose a dinner time for more higher food selection. The place is with a lot space with nice look. This is one of the best All you can eat Chinese restaurants I have visited.

Clean, tidy and very friendly staff, pizza I had was beautiful. Very nice. Atmosphere was homely and comfortable
14.12.2017
Wandered in after looking at the menu on my way by, they had bread sticks and cheese. Seated quickly by pleasant attentive staff. Asked about a new wine on the menu and was offered a sample and it arrived in a cute little sample wine glass. It matched the large, funky, chunky wine glass they serve in, nice touch. Decorated nicely for the holidays and seemed quite lively even though I arrived an hour before closing. Food was good, bread sticks and cheese were amazing! Just what I was looking for.
27.11.2017
Food was incredible!!!! Would go again.
However did not give the full 5 star due to staff not paying that much attention. Seemed friendly enough.

Fully enjoyed the good after a long day in Brighton. The food was so nice and tasty and the price was spot on. We went Jamie's the day before and I'd suggest this as being better.

First time visiting and Ask Italian and the first time visiting Brighton with my partner.
The food was excellent, everything came out sizzling and smelling/looking great as you'd expect. Everything tasted divine and was far better than most Italian eateries we have visited thus far.
However, this whole experience was let down majorly by the service we received - nobody came and checked back on us to see how the food was or to offer us another drink, if they had done I probably would have had another 1/2 drinks.
Nobody collected our plates at the end, or offered us the bill, we had to go up to the till point at the end of the meal to pay.
I would understand to an extent if it was busy, but we were one of 3 tables, and there were 2 staff members on shift - one of which who was visibly on his phone fairly often throughout our meal.
Shame really, would have been a perfect visit if we had competent waiting staff.
