Paskins Town House Lodging Business in Kemptown, Brighton and Hove

Reviews

1. Bal ★★★★★

   Recently I've spent two evenings at the beautiful Paskins Town House and stayed in two different rooms. Firstly, the simple bit. The place is tucked away in a Kemptown side street so is fairly quiet (as quiet as Kemptown can be) but close enough for short walks to the beach, to St James Street and to Brighton city centre. Staff have been very calm, easy to deal with and no trouble at all. To the point I find the negative reviews of them quite strange. The Paskins is decorated with loads of weird and wonderful items and decorated in a similar quirky manner. Personally, I find that really fun and although I live in the city it must feel "very Brighton" for people staying from other places in the country or from abroad. The rooms are a decent size, clean, fun and cosy. Room 8 you can connect to the TV and play YouTube or whatever, which is cool if you want to watch Prince's Sign of the Times Tour while you're getting ready to go to sleep. Sadly no such joy in Room 9. There is a heater in there, a fan and the windows open. The windows have this weird sticker on that says something about pigeons trying to sneak in but I didn't experience that at all even though I was hoping I might have a little visitor or two for a sort of Snow White type experience, which would have been kind of funny. Maybe next time I'll take some bird seed. I found the room really comfortable and there wasn't too much noise that I noticed from any other rooms, other people seemed to be really respectful which was really sweet. I had a very cosy and satiated sleep there on both occasions. I particularly enjoyed the quality and softness of the pillows, I've included a photo of their unique squishiness and how much we were enjoying them. Don't worry, it's probably just posed for a joke. I'd definitely stay there again, hopefully I will soon enough. Wonderful place and the proximity can't really be faulted. It's so easy to nip out, get up to whatever mischief takes you fancy and nip back for a beautiful snooze. There's plenty of places for late night snacks and drinks and whatnot, my personal favourites are tangfastics and squashies with a strawberry water. Feel free to copy that order to replicate my experience.

   10 minute walk to the beach and 10 minutes walk to shops, bars and restaurants. It is the perfect place to stay if you want to spend the day at the beach at the evening at a restaurant/pub. The staff were lovely and couldn’t be more helpful, I would happily stay again.

   If art deco decor and floor to ceiling bay windows to die for are your thing, then Paskins Town House is the spot for you. My partner and I have stayed here numerous times over the years and we just love the laid back vibe, every room we have stayed in has been clean and well looked after and hosts are so friendly and welcoming. I couldn't recommend Paskins anymore!

   Well presented and easy to find. Great location to walk into town but parking can be hard to find in the area. We arranged to arrive very late and all keys and parking pass left at reception. Parking for residents pass a little more expensive here than at other places -£15 vs £8. Room itself was a bit overbearing and very busy wallpaper, but was good art deco, and we had seen photos before. The immediate impression was a very warm and stuffy room, no air movement at all and you need to open a huge window to get any flow through, which then lets in all the noises of the roads on a fairly busy street in morning. Luckily a fan is supplied ( but knob missing so only oscillates and not able to fix on the bed.) Bed was very clean and I thought comfortable, the main part of a good nights sleep. Bathroom, no towels supplied except small hand towel. No soap in basin, no shower gel in shower. This was not good. Note left on reception to ask for towels and soap, ignored. Texted in morning to ask, message read but ignored. Very disappointed. Overall feeling of a hot stuffy place that was once good but now a bit forgotten, so can not recommend but am sure others had a good stay.

   Very disappointing visit. Booked a couple of days as a birthday treat for my daughter and I. We have been a few times previously over the years and really enjoyed our stays, particularly the breakfast which were exceptional. We hadn't realised they don't do breakfast any more so were quite disappointed by that. They suggested 2 places locally that they had a money off deal with that we could try via email, the link to one said the website was no longer functional, the other was closed down temporarily. Our email regarding this was ignored so we just had to find somewhere ourselves. The decor was lovely once but doesn't seem to have been maintained so is tatty and shabby. The cleanliness left plenty to be desired. The noise levels were pretty bad inside and out too, we ended up taking sleeping pills! Our room wasn't serviced at all during our stay, no fresh towels, beds unmade, tea, coffee etc. not topped up. We were very surprised by this. To sum up it feels like no one really cares about this business nor it's customers any more. We have always sung it's praises and recommended it to others in the past, indeed, it's the only place we ever stay when in Brighton. Sadly we won't be back again now.

   Stayed there after purchasing a Wowcher and were absolutely delighted. Brilliant central location near seafront. Great information beforehand and a lovely warm welcome. The room was spacious, stylish comfortable and really warm - would make a couple of minor tweaks but nothing major. A teeny problem with the room was resolved quickly and pleasantly. Would highly recommend.

   Great staff support, they were very helpful with a lost property issue! The B&B itself is so unique, and I found the self-check-in aspect very efficient. The place is worth staying in for the vibe and aesthetic alone!

   Every year i stay at Paskins hotel for work, Claudia went over and above to welcome my stay further with a personalised envelope with keys, parking permits and directions to my room. On entering my room I was astonished to find they had gifted me with a luxury double room with ensuite shower. I always look forward to my work trips to Brighton. It's small things like this that make working away a whole lot easier. Thank you so much

   Nice little hotel. Right in the middle of Brighton. Everything walking distance. Really enjoyed the Art Deco theme. The owners were really lovely people. Richard and the lady I spoke to were brilliant. Welcoming and helpful. Couldn't have asked for anymore from them. Rooms were clean, tidy, warm, but quite basic. Did enjoy our stay at the top of this terrace house. Did think the prices were a bit steep at first until I realised the prices of other local hotels. Would recommend staying here especially if you're not one for big standard hotels
