First room was in good condition and had a nice bathroom but the tv didn’t work and couldn’t be fixed they kindly found another room for us which was quite dated and bathroom was clean but very old. This room was noisy with people walking past and light coming in from hall.

A lovely hotel with all the facilities except a car park. But there's plenty off parking nearby, so not a problem. Our room was clean, bright and had a wonderful outlook. Definitely worthwhile having a sea view room. The bar was well stocked and the restaurant served top quality food which was cooked to perfection. But a special thanks must go to all the hard working staff that made our short stay most enjoyable.

Family-run hotel with great customer service

The Lansdowne is an amazing family-run hotel in a great location for exploring the scenic town of Eastbourne. The breakfasts are superb and the traditionally furnished lounge is a tranquil spot to while away some time boosted by the backdrop of sensational sea views. The bar menu offers some nice snacks too.The hotel provides reasonably priced parking permits so you can park opposite the hotel.
The scenery in Eastbourne is amazing.
The pier is an amazing focal point.
The architecture in Eastbourne is so elegant.
The famous gold dome at Eastbourne Pier.

Room 147 had a very nasty smell in the bathroom. Not sure if it was the end of run for sewage waste. It was extremely unpleasant. Notified reception. They said they would inform housekeeping.
