The Compton Restaurant offers traditional English and European dishes.

Superior rooms feature balconies with sea views.

Cons

Some rooms lack sea views.

“In my opinion, it's a solid value, sitting right on the seafront and within walking distance of both the pier and train station; plus, I appreciate the availability of late check-out for a reasonable fee. The rooms offer a comfortable bed and sea views, I think it's a practical choice for Eastbourne.”
