This Victorian landmark, built in 1864, faces out to sea, with its back to the bustling Lanes. The 201 refined rooms stretch across seven floors, linked by a sweeping central staircase, and offer a soothing palette of blues, seafront balconies and contemporary furnishings. Upgrade to a feature deluxe sea view room to enjoy luxury Noble Isle toiletries, wireless Bose speakers and a free-standing bathtub in the main bedroom. If you can tear yourself away from the room, stop off at the Victoria Bar for cocktails or the Victoria Terrace for afternoon tea.
2. A Room With a View, for boutique cool
Bed and Breakfast, Guesthouse

Living up to its name, the windows of this four-star Georgian boutique look out to sea from a pretty garden square in Kemptown. The 10 rooms – spread across four floors – are subtly decorated, with generous natural light, rainfall showers and Nespresso machines. The double roof terrace room on the fourth floor is the most delightful of all, with a staircase leading out to a private, decked balcony with incredible sea views. Be aware that this hotel has no lift – but a classic sea view double is available on the ground floor.
3. My Brighton, for delightful themed rooms

Led by design, My Brighton offers a sensuous blend of contemporary charm and local artistic flare. Fluid curves bring a progressive spirit to functional spaces, with light-filled rooms, custom furnishings and carefully commissioned art. The carousel penthouse amplifies the charm, led by striking shades of rust and red and centred around a lavish four-poster, stand-alone bathtub and an eponymous 300-year old carousel horse – a must for anyone who loves a Brighton themed hotel. The city is right at your feet, as you’re in the heart of North Laine.
