Old Speckled Hen Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 DH and I have just booked a place in the first Brighton Marathon next year (OMG what have I done?) Does anybody know a nice hotel within staggering distance of the pier? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigmommasally Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 After running a marathon you deserve to stay in The Grand http://www.devere.co.uk/our-locations/the-grand But this hotel is cheaper and close to the pier http://www.hotel-rn.com/hw/220599/ I haven't stayed in either but DD2 has and was happy with both. Good Luck with the marathon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrensWorld Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 If it's still there 'Emerys', had some great times there, very accommodating....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 The Thistle is very nice - I used to stay there regularly for work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) the most fan-daby-dozy and quirky place is 'Motel Schmotel' - breakfast in bed as a standard! The Lurker and I stayed there and can't wait to go back! http://www.motelschmotel.co.uk/ (it really is fab!)

Seagazer Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I've stayed in The Thistle Hotel with OH for a lovely weekend away. It was very nice and I had a lovely room with a big bay window overlooking the sea and the pier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 My cousin works here http://www.myhotels.com/brighton-cup.html Sounds lovely from what he says. Looking at the site you should eat in the Cup/Bottle restaurant as thats where he seems to work - rather good chef! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted September 19, 2009 Author Share Posted September 19, 2009 Thanks very much. Thistle was already booked up, Emery's I couldn't find,Motelscmotel's booking online was down. Clootie, the Hotelduvin looked absolutely wonderful but I found a better rate at The Grand So the Grand it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
