The location was central and within walking distance of the old town and lots of good cafes/restaurants, with a lovely sea view. The staff were really friendly and helpful (Jenia in particular - thank you!). We had a problem with the hot water in our room and it was sorted out within 10 minutes.
Set amid 38 acres of woodland and gardens, 3 miles away from the historic towns of Hastings and Battle in East Sussex, the hotel is an ideal base to explore 1066 country.

Food nice, rooms are clean and tidy. Fairly basic and not huge, but fine for the night.
This large house is just a 5-minute walk from the seafront, local shops and St Leonards Beach. It offers bright, modern rooms, and has a free on-site car park.

Location excellent. Odd welcome but subsequent dealings with staff good. Friendly and helpful.
Room ghastly. Very shabby and looked grubby. Shower in bedroom! Had no shelf to put shampoo, etc so had to put in shower tray and slipped. Smallest wash basin I have ever seen in the long narrow toilet area. Lighting inadequate. Kettle faulty, but was replaced. TV didn’t work. Bed lumpy, bed cushions and counterpane looked grubby. Tiny chairs. Uncomfortable, unattractive and very poor value.
Sorry, will not be staying again and cannot recommend
Went onto Tunbridge Wells and stayed at 1 Warwick Place. Suggest you look to the quality of this small hotel which was, amazingly, cheaper
The Lansdowne is centrally located on Hastings' seafront within a 5-minute walk of Hastings Train and Coach Stations. All rooms have en suite facilities, a TV and tea/coffee making facilities.

Hastings is a gem that i hadn't discovered before even though it is only two hours away from our home by car! it can certainly give Brighton a run for its money!
I hadn't appreciate that it is so big and therefore staying in St Leonards is quite a stretch by foot. We did use a bus though on one occasion which would work well if you had longer to figure it all out.
In the future I would seriously consider staying longer there. The May day events were so well organised too and every pub ( The Smugglers) and restaurant ( the Thai bookshop in George Street, Webbe's sea food restaurant on the sea frornt and Fagins in George Street)we went into we were greeted wholeheartedly-despite it being busy. The food in each was excellent.

I love Hastings.But I don’t appreciate it when the apartment I booked didn’t happen to exist.I had to book another place which was fantastic. The whole experience was stressful and not welcome, it was supposed to be a relaxing break.

Hastings has weathered recent years rather better than many...
Hastings has weathered recent years rather better than many towns. The Old Town area which was a little run down on my last visit has now been restored with many restaurants and the narrow streets had a friendly vibe missing from places like The Lanes in Brighton. The town centre is nothing special but only has a few empty shops. St Leonards seems to be its more upmarket twin although the transition between towns is seamless. The coastal area is varied including an under cover "bottle alley" and some good coffee shops (Goat Ledge being my favourite with a hippy vibe). It also felt safe with groups of people of all ages just enjoying being outdoors by the sea with some music. There seem to be plentiful buses to explore further afield and there are two funicular lifts to the top of the cliffs for a more scenic view and to visit the castle. Other towns on the south coast may have a better reputation, but I doubt that you'd get a hotel with sea view at such an affordable price and the locals are universally friendly.

Being a resident of Hastings for most of my life, The town like many others has it's up and downs, The area of St Leonards is peppered with bars and eateries as is the Old town of Hastings.
I can't recommend enough an Italian gem La Bella Vista on the seafront of St Leonards.

Hastings always has a lot to offer but going off season means a lot of the places are not open. But there is still plenty to see and do good variety of coffee shops restaurants and bars to suit all tastes. St Leonard’s, Bexhill, Eastbourne and Brighton are all within driving distance. George st has loads of quirky shops to browse in. In peak season the fair ground and amusement arcades are great for the kids. Highly recommended.
Maggies is best for fish & chips
Two bulls for steak. Or go to Bentleys steakhouse in bexhill for the best steak experience plenty of Italian eateries. And there are 3 great wet fish and seafood outlets at Rockanoor
The house was amazing, it was a historians dream, we loved looking at all the artifacts and pictures around the house. The breakfast was fab, there was so much choice. We had tea and coffee facilities in the room, and it was nice not to have a TV in the room. The welcome was lovely and the host made us feel at home. We would definitely stay here again if we visits Hastings again. Easy to park right outside the house. Thank you for a wonderful experience, the photos do not do it justice. The hotel should be upgraded to a 3 star hotel
The Royal Victoria Hotel a lovely hotel with friendly staff situated on the seafront, the hotel is a little tired in some places, but she is over 100 years old and is entitled to some life lines. She has some beautiful features and including a grade 2 listed stair case. She could do with a little TLC in some places, but this shouldn’t detract you from paying her a visit. Stayed in suite 302, little tired in some areas, but very clean and adequate for our stay.
Great location in a warm sunny room with lovely views - love the Old Town and St Leonards... quirky shops, winding alleyways, fishermans huts and smoking houses, art galleries & a wonderful cinema and event place in St Leonards.. Oh and the best pubs around..with an outstanding choice of free live music..way way better than cliquey Brighton.
Hastings has a old school charm and history which is really unique.
We'll be back...
Stayed at Astral Lodge once before and enjoyed it so thought we'd book again. Excellent beachfront location with short walk to shops, bars, restaurants etc.. It looks like the place has been refurbished a bit so very fresh looking hotel.. Staff very friendly on arrival and departure. No complaints at all and will book again on next trip to Hastings. Highly recommend and good value for money - Well run establishment!!
First timers in Hastings and have to say on arrival we were very happy with the location of the hotel. Our room was very clean with 2 double beds so quiet a good size. Breakfast was lovely for price and enjoyed many evening drinks on the outside front balcony. Lovely that this hotel allows dogs as well so will for sure be back one day with our poochies to have a little break away too.
I was pleasantly surprised to see that my single room had a sea view! Usually, the single rooms are dark broom cupboards but here it was different. Clean hotel with a very nice staff. I happened to visit when there were issues with water in Hastings area due to burst pipe but the staff did everything they could to make the inconvenience bearable.
Bonkers but fun place to stay, great view of Hastings and of the sea. The 1970's Retro vibe is inspired. The room itself is a little odd but the attention paid to the decor makes up for everything. Great location - a stone's throw from Hastings Old Town, but still very quiet. Lovely to have breakfast outside in the sun while looking at the sea.
We liked the location a lot. We also liked the room as it was big enough for our family, was very clean and we had our own little patio. The host was accomodating. We had a mini fridge in the room and that was great as we were able to have milk for breakfast etc. We enjoyed our stay a lot. We would definitely book this hotel again.
The hotel is fantastic and both the owners are very welcoming and they also provided one of the best breakfast we have for a long while in a hotel.
has a lovely large and quite garden to sit in and relax and will be visiting again for a longer stay than jus t the one night
it was new, spotlessly clean and central to everything in Hastings town. The hotel was in walking distance from the station and was there was a Tesco supermarket opposite and a Wetherspoon’s pub and a Yates pub just outside the front door.
Comfortable room, good service, friendly staff, Sarah explained all the details regarding the hotel and the room clearly and in full.
Overall a very enjoyable stay and I will certainly book there again the next time I'm in Hastings.
The property had an ideal seafront location. it was within easy reach of the town centre, the old town, the theatre and everything else in Hastings.
The staff were very friendly, the hotel was spotless and so were the rooms.
Friendly staff, quick checking in process. Lovely bar linked with the hotel. We didn't have food but a nice atmosphere in the bar.
The room was clean, I wouldn't say modern but it has everything you would need.
Location is great - near to the train station and close to St Leonards as well as Hastings town center. Breakfast is exceptional - a true delight. Beautiful presentation and heavenly scrambled eggs.
Venue was very good ,restaurant was also very good. No breakfast but no problem as there are many places to get breakfast in Hastings a short walk from the hotel. Location was in a quite street.
Lovely stay in Hastings. Good hotel for family stay. Nice breakfast area with lounge area, kids enjoyed sitting after they’d eaten breakfast, whilst adults chatted and finished.
