HAven't been for ages and am off next w/end with some friends. Can anyone suggest a good hotel (it's NOT a romantic w/end), good bars/restaurants etc? Thanks.

Blanche House and Hotel Du Vin v expensive (IMO) altho H du V has a FANTASTIC restauraunt anbd lovely bar. My tip is Neo Hotel, 19 Oriental Place, Brighton (01273 711 104). Rooms from £40.

Really beautiful (done up by an Elle Decoration person)

Noddy5 - do you live in Brighton?

No, not heard of the Pavilion Hotel. I've just looked on web and Neo has a website too - sorry totally rubbish at links!

Thanks, JC, The Neo has availability - The Blanch House is full as is Hotel Pelirocco which looks brilliant. Going to go for The Neo, I think and we can just go for one night which is brilliant - they normally force you to book two. THANKS.

Hotel is booked so any recommendations for drinks etc? We're going to Brighton on Saturday. Hotel du Vin is booked solidly until June - but we may visit the bar. Thanks in advance for any ideas.

Help, help, in no particular order: drinks, sunglasses and shoes - advice? And, of course, food. Please?

Thanks, JC, it was brilliant. Went for drinks at Blanche House and another bar and to what was a rather strange club. Did stacks of shopping and ended up with a revolting pair of sunglasses (bought at the end of a shopping day with various stop-offs for drinks). Thanks for the hotel recommendation - it was just right.
