West Beach Hotel
West Beach Hotel is an affordable seafront hotel on Kings Road, opposite the remains of the West Pier and the Brighton i360. Its 52 en-suite rooms range from compact economy doubles to sea-view superior rooms, four-bed family rooms and shared dorms, so it works for couples, families and budget groups alike.

Room choices
Every room has a private en-suite bathroom and a desk; private rooms also have tea and coffee making facilities. Economy and standard doubles are compact and priced for value. Superior rooms are larger and look out over the promenade, the West Pier and the i360. Family rooms sleep four, and dorm rooms offer a cheaper, more social option for solo travellers and groups. Many rooms have been recently refurbished, each with its own design.
The location
Kings Road is Brighton's main seafront road, so the beach is across the street and the i360 tower is next door. The Lanes, Churchill Square shopping and the Palace Pier are all walkable along the seafront. It is a good base for festivals and summer events on the beach and promenade.
Who it suits
This is a practical, keenly priced hotel rather than a luxury stay. If a sea view matters, book a Superior room specifically, as standard rooms do not promise one. The hotel also runs a coworking space, useful for anyone mixing work with a seaside break. Group stays are catered for too, with dorm rooms making it one of the cheaper ways to sleep on the seafront.
