Located in a town house in a residential area close to the Brighton seafront, Snooze is a mid-range bed-and-breakfast with vibrant and fun decor. The public spaces and eight guest rooms (including two suites) are decorated in bright colors, and feature many quirky retro-style accents such as upcycled furniture and vintage signs and posters. In-room amenities include flat-screen TVs, DVD and CD players, iPod docks, and digital alarm clocks, but fridges or minibars are absent and there's no air-conditioning. There have also been complaints of poor soundproofing between rooms, and shower stalls are cramped. Amenities are limited to a free cooked breakfast (with a breakfast-in-bed option for suites), and free hotel-wide Wi-Fi throughout. Travelers may also want to consider 27 Brighton Bed & Breakfast, another popular bed-and-breakfast with a quirky contemporary style.
Scene
Bed-and-breakfast with colorful retro-style interiors and a laid-back vibe
Set in a three-story town house on a residential street, Snooze is a bed-and-breakfast with funky and colorful vintage interiors. Ceilings are painted with vibrant graffiti-style artwork, and vintage signs and posters -- like the one for the 1979 movie "Quadrophenia" -- decorate public spaces. Furniture and accent walls are painted in bright colors such as teal and orange, and the stairwell is carpeted in vivid scarlet. Snooze offers a refreshing alternative to generic chain hotels, and a laid-back vibe that is more like that of a casual guest house rather than a hotel. It's particularly popular with vacationers and gets plenty of couples.
Location
In a residential area, five minutes away on foot from the seafront
Snooze is located in a residential area, just east of the city center. The seafront and beach can be easily reached on foot, but some attractions are a bit farther away. There are quite a few restaurants, cafes, and pubs to be found in the immediate vicinity.
Rooms
Fun and colorful guest rooms with plenty of amenities
Like the public spaces of the hotel, guest rooms and suites feature lots of colorful retro design details including vintage signs and posters, and recycled furnishings. The walls, furniture, and fireplaces are painted in vivid colors like magenta or neon orange, and crates and drums are repurposed as tables. The effect is both fun and flamboyant. All rooms and suites have flat-screen TVs, DVD and CD players, iPod docks, digital alarm clocks, and coffee- and tea-making facilities. Irons and ironing boards are also available. In most guest rooms, there are sinks located in the rooms plus small, brightly tiled bathrooms fitted with cramped shower stalls. Towel-warming racks, hairdryers, and free toiletries are provided. The two penthouse suites are bigger, and feature details like shag carpets, double showers, and free breakfast in bed. A downside (and frequent guest complaint) is the poor soundproofing between rooms. Also, note that the property is not air-conditioned.
Features
Free made-to-order breakfast and free Wi-Fi
Snooze doesn't offer any on-site features apart from a free breakfast with plenty of made-to-order options, including egg dishes, a full English breakfast, and vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. Cereals, fresh fruit, yogurt, juice, tea, and coffee are also provided. The breakfast service is served in the bright and colorful dining room, but guests in suites can opt for a free breakfast-in-bed service. Wi-Fi is free and available throughout the hotel. Parking is available nearby for an extra daily fee.
