St Christopher's at The Palace Hotel Reviews

The hotel is located just opposite the Brighton Pier and close to the city centre with railway station 15-20 mins walk away. The staff are very friendly and the rooms are really clean. Don't be disappointed when you go through the stairs first time.

Very good place to stay, close to the pier and all the principal points of the city. Great staff, very nice and gentle. Looking forward to come back.

Apart from the room being very hot and not being able to turn the heating down, the beds were comfortable and clean and the showers were excellent.

The volume of the music in the bar downstairs was a bit excessive. It made it impossible to sleep before 3a.m.!

Located practically near the pier. Great food from the restaurant. Could use better WiFi. Has elevator for baggage. Staff were friendly. Had a great time!

Great location and helpful staff. Was disappointed there was kitchen or even facilities to make myself a cup of tea. I understand this is because there is a bar & restaurant on the ground floor, but it would be nice to be able to use a kettle & small fridge. The dorm room I stayed in on 2nd floor was spacious & comfortable with great views. Shower was nice and strong. Not a great place if you are a light sleeper & go to be early given the dance music on the ground floor.

Best location at the best price, staff were pretty slow by polite all the same. Keys for the rooms were a nightmare but the staff helped where they could. The room was fairly standard for a hostel, nothing to make it stand out but then it was not dirty. Will be staying again on the next visit to Brighton

Staff could not be bothered to help or just didn't know how, I had to ask for the bathroom to be cleaned after 5 days there, the rooms where to hot or to cold and when you asked the staff they said it was either on or off but would be for the hole building I mean really you carnt turn the building down a few degree's. Only one window in the room opened about 10cm so it smelt very bad. They put no effort into the hostel just the bar. Its all about the money in the bar not the guest.

Besides being mislead about the drinks specials and free breakfast it was great. Ie breakfast is toast, tea/coffee & cereal - and the only shooter you can get is apple sourz and the only spirit is vodka ... And they're watered down. That was the only negative though...and the ridiculously hot rooms

A nice place to stay, good sea view and friendly staff.

Great hostel which we chose for a friends hen party weekend, great deals on food and drink and fantastic location

When you pay £85 for a room per night, regardless of the location (Just by the renovated) pier, you do expect it to have a solid, level floor, a secure lock and not to smell of old socks. The facilities haven't been updated since it was built, apart from the addition of a poorly fitted and rather pointless mini flat screen T.V. (Would've been better off spending money on a decent mattress and some clean sheets. The only saving grace was the powerful shower.

It has a great location, right on the beach, you can hear the ocean and a two minute walk to the Brighton Pier. Otherwise I didnt love this hostel. It was very dirty, the bathroom was always covered in water. The key cards NEVER worked and I had to get a new one alsmot every time I tried to get into my room. The msuic is so loud that my bed was vibrating while I was trying to sleep. For one night, if your looking to party, its definitely okay, but not for more than that.

I had a great stay as always. Ocean views of Brighton Pier. Fantastic and staff were very helpful. Great breakfast and fantastic showers.I will be going back again.

Hi Sorry for late reply. The Crew at Saint Christopher's were amazing. I had my bicycle with me in a Box, which means a Lot to me. It took up a bit of space, but All the crew members were very friendly and understanding about it all. I received a lot of respect from all of them with no feeling of negativity about the whole situation. Yhey made my stay very welcoming. The manager there was very cool about it and handled it all veryy well. I Highly reccommend it to everybody. BYRON BAY BEN

Great location! Bar is full of old dudes but as a solo female traveler I'd still go back there. Lockers under the beds are cool but the wifi downstair is Shiiiiiiiiiiit! pretty cool place though with nice staff and good value. Brighton is so lovely

Still a great hostel, and we've had really good stays here in the past, but there should definitely be different rate/booking option for the back rooms as ours was small, stuffy, pokey, hot, uncomfortable and had a view of a brick wall. I would happily have paid extra to have a room overlooking the beach, as we'd specifically booked St Christophers to have a good view of the half marathon

We stayed in February and arrived at 23:00, got helped right away and had a double private room. Clean toilet and shower, room was very hot and unfortunately couldn't turn down the heater so we slept with the window open. First night went OK second night we had a lot of noise from the AC which sounds like a train passing by.. for the rest good value for your money right across the Brighton pier

The location is brilliant, but my room was pretty ropy in places and the "24 hour reception" basically consists of banging and waving through a downstairs window until you attract someone's attention. If, like me, you're looking for a cheap private double room to crash in, I'd recommend you splash out an extra tenner and go to a proper hotel. But perhaps now I've reached the age of 30 I've just turned into a miserable old git!

From room 63 a lot of noise can be heard during all night from what looks like a refrigeration unit on the building outside of the window. Impossible to sleep at night!!!
