Fodor's "With a casual elegance that typifies Brighton, this Regency-era boutique hotel sits close to the seafront. Rooms are cleverly fitted into the old building, so some have slanted ceilings..." Full review

The cool bar downstairs is popular with young locals and can get quite loud, so ask for a room well away from it if you're a light sleeper.
Lonely Planet "Stylishly decorated in luscious plums and teals, this renovated nine-room boho hotel has aromatherapy lights, spa baths in its superior rooms and organic breakfasts."

"This stylish boutique bolthole, set in a tall creamy Regency townhouse, is a stroll up from the seafront Peace statue and ideally situated for easy access to the city’s main attractions." Full review
Independent "The Oriental is an altogether quieter, less sticky establishment, yet still with kooky charm. Expect lashings of visual drama: wacky paintings and plum colour notes mixing with covetable vintage finds"
Independent "In a well-kept Regency townhouse, Oriental Guest House is neither big nor flashy, but it’s relatively peaceful and has the personal service to go with it"

"Eclectic doesn’t quite describe the rooms at this wonderful 23-room town-house hotel, set amid the splendour of Regency Sq." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Easily one of Brighton’s most stylish hotels, Artist Residence has come a long way since its inception seven years back." Full review
Mr & Mrs Smith "Artist Residence Brighton hotel is more than its 19th-century façade, with iconic sea views, reclaimed industrial decor (including salvaged bits of the West Pier), and artist-designed interiors." Full review

’ The bartender sympathised with my knocked-up-cocktail-lover woes and mixed me a Desmond Tutu, which somehow tasted like it might have alcohol in despite being fully midwife approved (Mr Smith very kindly conferred with me every time he ordered to make sure he only got tipples I fancied sipping.
The Guardian "If arty, youthful Brighton was a hotel it would be the Artist Residence, an eclectic, bohemian bolthole on one of the city’s most elegant Regency squares"

The Guardian "I love directing people to the small Artist Residence hotel...where I once had a mini staycation. It overlooks the sea on Regency Square and is full of vintage charm."
Independent "More boho club than boutique hotel, this heavenly 25-bedroom pad mixes dense Farrow & Ball colour notes and retro finds with hip commissioned artwork"
Independent "At the top end of Regency Square and facing the i360 observation tower and skeletal West Pier, Artist Residence is an impressively stylish 25-room boutique hotel"
Independent "On Regency Square, each of its 24 maximalist rooms/apartments are designed by artists with as much flair as you’d expect. It’s worth forking out a little extra for the larger rooms"
