Drakes Hotel, Brighton
'Prinny' (Prince of Wales, later King George IV) liked Brighton because it was only an hour's journey from London, so he built his exotic Pavilion here. It remains a huge draw for visitors to this vibrant town. Brighton's cafes, bars, restaurants and antiquaries are also a big attraction. Contributing to the experience is the variety of hotels to stay at. From luxury spa hotels to quirky retreats, country houses to tranquil B&Bs. Perhaps you will fall in love with Drake's on Brighton's Marine Parade - a quirky and memorable boutique hotel, that brings together the charm of a Georgian property with contemporary flair. Or maybe you will be enchanted by Artist Residence with muralled walls by street artists, upcycled furniture and bohemian charm. For traditional five-star luxury, head to nearby Eastbourne, where The Grand Hotel is imposing enough to sit on top of a wedding cake and comes complete with a spa and a jewel of an outdoor pool.
