Advantages: Great location, great breakfast Disadvantages: Needs a refurb in bedroom areas - urgently!
Hello and welcome, to my review about the QualityHotel in Brighton.
About a month ago, my good friend Rory called me to put forward some ideas as to what we could do for his Birthday, after about 20 minutes in deep discussion and rampant surfing we decided that it would be a laugh to go to Brighton for the entire weekend to celebrate his birthday. Therefore first things first we needed somewhere to stay. A quick search on Google showed us a number of hotels in Brighton that were within our budget, one of them being the QualityHotel, so the prices they gave us were within our budget so we went ahead with the booking.

The location of the Hotel is superb; it is at the lower end of West Street. For those who don?t know Brighton that well, West Street is the main street where there are a number of clubs, bars ...
Advantages: Helpful staff, good rooms Disadvantages: As with all Scandinavia can be pricey
I stayed here over Easter of this year (2008) which was great even the 3feet of snow was wonderful! Just what you want in Norway!
The hotel as you walk through is very modern apart from the lift....i suggest you take the stairs if you have a lift phobia!! The receptionist was lovely and she spoke english very well!
The only problem we had was when we checked in we were told that a band was playing that night so it might be a bit noisy...fine! By about 5pm we could hear the band playing and it was right below our room! My partner took it upon himself to go downstairs to reception....a few minutes later he came back to the room, told me to pack everything up as they had upgraded us free of charge to a suite! How amazing.. a view of the Larvik fjord and we had a balcony, lounge and huge bathroom and all tastefully decorated!

Advantages: friendly staff, good food, comfy beds Disadvantages: too far from Chester for nightlife
NAME OF LOCATION: QualityHotel, at Chester. There are 75 ensuite bedrooms but you will need transport to Chester as it actually at Little Sutton, Ellesmere Port and was at least 11 miles from Chester itself.
BACKGROUND: We chose to go on a weekend trip to Chester, my boyfriend Robert and I with Gee Vee Travel (see separate review) and it used this hotel as a base.
TRANSPORT
We visited Chester by coach and used this hotel as a base only. Some people on our trip had been informed that it was possible to walk into Chester from the hotel but this is not possible as its 11 miles away and you would have to cross the M56 and the A41, which are extremely busy roads.
Chester has a railway station but as this is some distance from the hotel you will need a taxi or hire car from here. The hotel informed us that it costs £18 minimum ...
