Hospitality
OUR
HIGH STANDARDS
Every hotel, guest accommodation and self catering provider
featured in this Guide has agreed to meet the stringent standards laid
down by the Eastbourne Hospitality Association or has been quality
assessed by either Quality in Tourism for Visit England or the AA.
Prices shown in advertisements
Rates shown are generally within a ‘from and to’ price range
and usually reflect seasonal variations.
Hotels and guest accommodation
Prices indicated are per person based on two people sharing
a standard twin bedded room (unless otherwise stated).
Self catering
Prices indicated are per unit, per week (unless otherwise stated).
The small print
The information contained in all advertisements has been supplied
by individual accommodation providers. We recommend you confirm
all details, prices, facilities, services and any special requirements
prior to booking to ensure they meet your requirements as changes
can occur. Eastbourne Borough Council (EBC), as publishers of
this Guide, cannot enter into any disputes concerning tariffs or
contractual disputes. If you need to cancel your booking you must let
the accommodation provider know. A booking forms an immediate
contract and cancellation fees may apply. Your contract is with the
accommodation provider even if you have used VisitEastbourne.com
to assist with your booking.
The information on these pages has been provided by the proprietors
concerned and as such Eastbourne Borough Council (EBC) cannot
accept responsibility for any errors or omissions.
Ratings
For serviced accommodation there are two schemes to show
the quality, comfort, cleanliness, services and facilities of an
accommodation provider. Within both of the hotel and guest
accommodation schemes, you may find ‘Star Ratings’ (1-5 stars)
which have been awarded by either the AA or Quality in Tourism for
Visit England (if the hotel or guest accommodation has elected to join
either scheme).
Or, on smaller advertisements,
these symbols are displayed:
These star ratings are awarded by applying the quality standards
for each scheme, which are different for each of the hotel and
guest accommodation schemes, and are rated from one to five
stars, with the more stars indicating the higher the quality.
Visit England Gold & Silver Awards
Quality in Tourism for Visit England Gold
& Silver awards are given in recognition
of exceptional quality and the ‘best of the
best’ within a star rating regardless of the
range of facilities and services they offer.
AA Gold Star Award
Awarded to the very best of guest accommodation
within the 3, 4 and 5 star ratings.
HOTELS
Hotels are larger properties and are managed on a
formal and structured basis. They must offer evening
meals and be licensed to serve alcohol. As a minimum
standard all rooms must be en-suite or have a private
bathroom. They will normally have a fully manned
reception and offer a fuller range of food, beverage and
leisure facilities. Some hotels also offer entertainment.
GUEST ACCOMMODATION
Guest accommodation properties are often smaller
than hotels with perhaps more of a family home feel and
approach with a less structured service. They will often have
the owners on site. They range from one or two bedroomed
bed and breakfasts or medium sized town houses to larger
guest houses, which offer similar services to hotels.
SELF CATERING
These establishments have been either quality assessed by
Quality in Tourism for Visit England or the AA, or meet the
standards set out by the Eastbourne Hospitality Association.
All ratings are correct at time of print (Dec 2016) but are
subject to change. Please contact assessing body to confirm
grading status.

rating scheme for Quality in Tourism and the AA please
