Well situated for walking and getting into town
We were there to walk 7 sisters and hotel conveniently situated. Public rooms were very large and pleasant. Breakfast was adequate and serving staff excellent. Couldn't reserve car parking but managed to find space on arrival and plenty of free street parking available. Bedroom/bathroom was a bit tired but adequate. Had dinner in the hotel one night, plenty of choice and service good.

Wonderful hotel
Love this hotel. Makes you feel you have stepped back in time. Beautiful view of the South Downs from the bedroom window. Room very clean with plenty of hot drinks provided on the drinks tray. Staff friendly and helpful. Hot breakfast very tasty. There was also plenty to choose from from the cold table including juices, cereals, fruit, cold meat and rolls. When we stayed the weather was really sunny which made our room really hot. A fan was provided but the room was still really hot during the night as the windows could only be only opened slightly so that the birds did not come into the room.

The staff were lovely with excellent service. The rooms were comfortable with good quality facilities. Breakfast was very good. The hotel was fairly quiet but you could hear people talking in the room above. It might have been a problem if they had put a loud TV on, but fortunately they did not.

6/10 Good

The Hydro has bags of character in the public rooms. The receptionist was dealing with another customer when I arrived but I waited 10 minutes before being acknowledged and the other customer wasn't spoken to during that time, which I thought was odd. The bedrooms are nice but the bathroom in our room was reminiscent of the 1970s with a poor shower over the bath. Breakfast service was great. The Asian head waiter was very efficient and the staff were helpful and friendly. The tea room staff on the other hand were super slow in taking and delivering our order. Overall a not unpleasant experience.

There is something of a refined charm about the Hydro. All the guests behave nicely and yet it is not over formal. The sea views from the rooms that have them (I have stayed twice) are gorgeous, across the hotel's lovely garden you can see the start of the climb up to Beachy Head framed by sea and sky. The sheltered pool area is a real sun trap and a real selling point. The lounges and public areas are elegant and comfortable. All in all a great place for a little more civilised break in Eastbourne.

I totally enjoyed my stay at the hydro hotel .i used the outdoor pool ,with towels provided.drinks service also at pool side.My room was clean and fresh ,but next to the carpark so early morning delivery noise woke me .The staff at breakfast and dinner in the crystal room were regimental and smoothly run.food was great ,thanks to the chef .What let the ambience down for me at dinner was other guests allowed to enter the crystal room wearing t shirts ,hats ,flip flops ,when i made the effort with a suit as being it was my first time at the Hydro .would recommend.

Lovely stay at our favourite Eastbourne Hotel
I stayed overnight with my son as we love The Hydro. We had dinner in The Crystal Restaurant which was very nice but I think I should have chosen something different as my steak was a bit thin and fatty. The rest of the meal was nice and perhaps I was just unlucky with the steak. My son had the rump steak (rare) and he said it was delicious. The beds were very comfortable and the views from our room were lovely. Breakfast was very good and staff very attentive. Hope to come back soon and will definitely choose a front sea view room, as it is well worth the extra money. I would just add though that the shower pressure in our room was not brilliant so the bath was probably the best option in that particular room. I think there are other rooms though that have stand alone showers and which are probably a bit more effective. Wouldn’t put me off coming again though as the ambience and general feel of the hotel is lovely.
