Calling itself "England's most Rock 'n' Roll hotel" certainly gives the upper-middle-range Hotel Pelirocco a lot to live up to, but it makes a sterling effort. The focus is on the hotel's individually themed rooms (from burlesque to sci-fi), which are very imaginatively finished and truly unique, though some are starting to show wear. It's true that some rooms verge on X-rated, but there are typical and toned down options as well. The location isn't bad, being a 10-minute walk into the town center. The bar is definitely a fun scene, but doesn't do much in the way of food. The general vibe will not be to everyone's taste, but rates aren't much higher than expected for the seafront, and it's sure to be a memorable experience. If you're looking for something more stylish and less campy, compare rates at the boutique property, Myhotel Brighton.

Calling itself 'the UK's finest gay hotel', the mid-range Legends Hotel is certainly geared towards the LGBT community, though it's not immediately obvious. At night, however, the bar and nightclub liven up and become a popular spot -- noise can be an issue in many rooms. Higher-end rooms are elegant and have sea views, while the more budget options are very simple, and tiny. All in all, rates are great for a seafront hotel, though travelers might need earplugs to enjoy a decent night's sleep.

This luxury boutique hotel offers a sophisticated, yet inviting atmosphere. Guests can choose between the 19 rooms and suites, each of which has its own individual look and feel. Conveniently located within central Brighton, it's about a 10-minute walk to Brighton pier and a 15-minute walk to the train station. A free made-to-order breakfast and in-room massages are just the icing on the cake of this chic, comfortable hotel. However, Hotel Una lacks a gym and full restaurant (but the bar stays open 24/7 for hotel guests).

A four-pearl boutique hotel with a dramatic flare, Myhotel Brighton isn't for the faint of heart. Bold, daring colors and psychedelic designs meet feng shui, immersing guests in a sensory, spiritual environment.

Located across from the beach, the upper-middle-range Hilton Brighton Metropole serves many business travelers thanks to 33 fully equipped meeting rooms and halls. The hotel features modern and elegant decor in its public spaces, but its 340 guest rooms are a bit chain-like in style. Though the rooms have flat-screen TVs and kettles, guests have complained about wear and tear in some, spotty Wi-Fi (which costs a fee), as well as cleanliness and maintenance issues. Nevertheless, the hotel offers great features, like three dining options, a bar, an indoor pool, a spa, and a gym. As an alternative, the Grand Brighton has trendier updated rooms, free Wi-Fi, and offers breakfast at no cost.

The 201-room, four-pearl Grand Brighton is a classic waterfront hotel that originally opened in 1864. It offers spacious renovated rooms, many with private balconies and lovely ocean views, as well as majestic public spaces, a fine-dining restaurant, and a full-service spa. Guest rooms are tastefully decorated, if not quite as grandiose as other areas; roomy black-and-white bathrooms are a highlight. Free breakfast adds value, but on-site parking is expensive, and guests not booking spa treatments must pay a fee to use the fitness center facilities. The adjacent Hilton Brighton Metropole is a similar hotel with better rates on certain dates.

Royal Albion Hotel-Brighton is a budget property set in a 19th-century building across from the beach and Brighton Pier. While the exterior looks lovely, the inside shows signs of age and there have been complaints of cleanliness issues. The 219 rooms have tube TVs and kettles, but they only get Wi-Fi if guests can pick up a signal from the lobby. Features include a restaurant, a bar, and a function room. Though Royal Albion Hotel-Brighton might be the cheapest beachfront hotel in Brighton’s city center, the slightly pricier Sea Spray Boutique Hotel might be a better option, as it offers free breakfast and in-room massages.
