I had a wonderful time at Ravillious! I was only there for one night but the owners were incredibly kind and attentive from the moment I walked into the building. The room was spacious and facilities were clean/ useful. The breakfast was lovely and I was met with a beaming smile as soon as I walked into the room. It was also a brilliant location as it was right by the beach and near the theatre I was going to. I would definitely come again in the future. It couldn’t have been more perfect! 10/10

From the moment we walked in the door we were amazed at how lovely this hotel was. We were greeted by our hosts who were so friendly and helpful and showed us to our room.
We had one of the two attic rooms. The room was immaculate, well decorated and so clean. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom again was really clean and fresh and my husband who rates rooms by their showers was really happy. There was tea and coffee as would be expected but biscuits and a very scrummy chocolate marshmallow was also provided. Bottled water too ( we usually take our own so this was good to know for future reference). The room also had its own ironing board and iron and also hairdryer. We also noted a fan should the weather be hot.
For breaksfast (which was included) there was a choice of pastries, yoghurts,cereals, fruit as well as traditional breakfasts. The traditional cooked breakfast was delicious. My husband had this and I had the vegetarian option which was equally delicious.
We can't praise our hosts enough. The whole stay (albeit only one night as we were seeing a show and didnt want to drive home late at night) was brilliant and we will definitely be staying there again and will definitely recomend it to our friends and family. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming, family-owned hotel in Eastbourne. From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel incredibly welcome — they are warm, kind, and absolute masters of hospitality. It's clear they truly belong in this industry. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and their passion for providing a great guest experience shines through.

The highlight of each day was the breakfast — it was nothing short of professional-level quality. Beautifully prepared, delicious, and served with care. You can tell they take great pride in what they do.

If you're looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, with top-tier service and genuine heart, this is it. Highly recommend!

What a gem of a boutique hotel! Perfectly located in a charming part of Eastbourne, it’s just a short stroll from a fantastic selection of quality restaurants. Caroline and Chris are truly exceptional hosts—warm, welcoming, and full of great local knowledge.

The rooms are beautifully appointed with top-notch quality and attention to detail. And the breakfast? Absolutely outstanding. There’s something for everyone: from fresh fruit, cereals, and yogurts to overnight oats and a full English breakfast—all delicious and thoughtfully prepared.

During our stay, Caroline and Chris shared great tips for exploring the area, including the best hiking routes along the Seven Sisters and must-visit spots around town.

This boutique hotel is an absolute must-stay—you won’t be disappointed!

Very good location for both sea and town, easy parking albeit at a small cost, very friendly hosts and an excellent breakfast. Stairs to our room provided our daily cardiac exercise. Will happily visit again if we return to the area.

Upon arrival we had a very warm welcome from Chris and Caroline. They took time to advise us about a few good restaurants in the area, things that we could do in the day. Chris kindly took our bag up to the first floor for us, something that doesn’t happen very often in other establishments we’ve stayed in. Our room (room 6) was spacious and immaculate. We both had a full English breakfast which was delicious. Thank you both for a lovely, relaxing stay. Kate and Stuart

Perfect couples getaway

Booked this with my girlfriend for an overnight stay near the coast. Cant reccomend highly enough. Chris and Christine were so friendly and helpful, and made our stay great. The room was a great size, came with all the necessary things for a stay, and a really comfortable bed! Breakfast was fantastic with a good selection, and the location meant we were within a 5 minute walk of the beach. Would really recommend to anyone wanting a stay in Eastbourne.

Excellent Bed & Breakfast

I had a warm welcome from the owners, who were very helpful in suggesting a choice of restaurants within a 5/10 min walk.
The whole property is presented to a high standard. My room was spacious and very comfortable and had recently been tastefully decorated. Excellent choice of breakfast all freshly prepared and presented to a very high standard and very tasty too!
Would definitely stay again.

Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Excellent hosts who ensured that your stay was comfortable, professionally managed, but above all, friendly. The breakfast menu was first class and cooked there and then with nothing too much trouble. We would thoroughly recommend this venue for all the foregoing reasons and access to sea front, shops and railway station. Just excellent.

Raving about Ravilious!

Ravilious was a great find! Fabulously well appointed, spacious room with excellent service from Chris (sorry we didn't get to meet Caroline!). It was conveniently located close to the centre of town, restaurants and the promenade. Breakfast was well prepared and tasty.

We will be back!

Eastbourne 2 night break

Very friendly place to stay. Car parking on the street at £2 per day, easy to arrange with owners. Hotel centrally located (for theatre, station, tennis, shops, pier, restaurants) so didn't have to move the car. Was able to leave our cases before check-in time. Hotel very clean and comfortable, we will definitely return. Cooked breakfast very good. Lots of good local information including money off map.
