Colson House

Stayed here for one night in a single room. It was on floor 4 of the building. Very steep stairs. That was fine for me, but something to know for other people On entry i realised I didn't have an email with the codes to check in. I phoned and it took them 20 mins of me stood there, to find my reservation. When i eventually got the codes, I got to my room. The room was clean, plenty to drink, a nice tv and a decent loo and shower. Very compact but more than enough. The floor however is on a slope, it's completely wonky and really strange. The room walls are paper thin. The door handled need to be slammed to shut the door. So you hear everything all night. That was a big downside. Apart from that it was comfortable and I'd stay again. If you havent got your emails the day before, I'd suggest calling them ASAP

We really enjoyed our stay in Brighton once again and there were so many things we liked about our room. The only reason we didn’t give 5 stars for service and room was because there were a few small things which weren’t quite right. Firstly, two of the three Venetian blinds on the windows didn’t work and wouldn’t raise or tilt; secondly, only one of three bulbs worked in the bathroom light fitting; thirdly (being a bit picky here I admit) we were cold for a good while until we worked out the radiators, so it would have been nice if someone had switched them on for us that afternoon (just enough to take the chill off the air). However, these didn’t detract from our enjoyment in fairness. We felt at ease as soon as we walked through the lobby and stairs which is very nicely decorated with a lovely quirky edge. We were also happy to see we didn’t have to worry about keys thanks to the combo locks on all the doors! The bed was lovely and comfortable and we both slept like babies both nights, helped no end by the room being so quiet! Once the radiators got to work, we were lovely and cozy, and there were plenty of hot drinks to greet us which was just what we needed after a rather problematic journey due to train issues in London! The TV was perfect for the room (I hate huge TVs!) the furniture was good too, especially the lovely bed. The decor was really well finished, there was plenty of storage for our things, and the bathroom & shower were just right for us. The building looked lovely even at night and the location could have barely been more ideal for us: just far enough from town to be cozy, near enough to be very convenient, and just the right walking distance to clear one’s head before turning in for the night! There’s great shops nearby and you can get a cracking cup of coffee and a bite at the Al Forno Pizzeria just round the corner, plus you can literally fall out the front door and roll down to the seafront, though I’d recommend just walking personally! As I say, there were some tiny issues which is why we couldn’t quite give the 5 stars we would otherwise have given. It wasn’t expensive either so great value for money.

John was very welcoming and made sure we were all set for our trip. We were able to park in the road and pay the hotel for council permits to cover our stay, which was a way more reasonable price then any other parking in Brighton. The room was really nicely decorated, clean and in a perfect location, everything was in walking distance. Would definitely stay again when in Brighton.

Coulson House is one of the loveliest places I’ve stayed. The staff were extremely friendly, the rooms were spotlessly clean, and everything felt welcoming and well cared for. Excellent location, just a short walk from the beach and the city centre. I would definitely love to stay there again.

Nice rooms, clean, but no hot water which kinda sucks Edit: fixed within an hour, nice

I recently stayed at Colson House, and it was a delightful experience! The room I booked was incredibly cozy and clean, making it a perfect home away from home during my stay. One of the nice touches was the amenities provided. It had a kettle, water, glasses, and some tea, which was perfect for enjoying a warm beverage in the comfort of my room. It’s those little conveniences that really enhance a stay. The location couldn’t be better just a short stroll from both the beach and the vibrant city center of Brighton. Whether I wanted to enjoy the seaside or explore shops and restaurants, everything was within easy reach. Overall, I highly recommend Colson House for anyone visiting Brighton. The cozy atmosphere, clean accommodations, and great location make it an excellent choice for a relaxing stay!

Good self service guesthouse / hotel. Even the basic double rooms were nice and spacious with a decent bathroom and decent sized shower. Only complaint we have is slightly thin walls; not a huge issue but you can hear others at times. The booking, check-in and check-out process was easy with codes for the building and room sent to my inbox before check-in time.

Conveniently located near all amenities. Very clean and well managed including remote check-in. Comfortable bed with freshly laundered linen and toiletries. It was a pleasure to settle in after a long commute all the way from Peterborough! Thanks
