Hydro Hotel

Eastbourne classic above the seafront where dogs go almost everywhere

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
“A long-established hotel on Mount Road above the western end of Eastbourne's seafront, with an outdoor pool, the Crystal Restaurant, a conservatory restaurant and lounges. It suits a traditional seaside stay at the foot of the Downs. The published dog rule is generous: on a lead, dogs can go into all areas except the Crystal Restaurant and the outdoor pool.
