Service: Personal recommendations from the host

“This boutique B&B wins you over with its quirky seaside charm, from individually decorated rooms to the homemade treats left each day. Just off Brighton's seafront in Kemptown, I think it's a great launchpad for exploring the pier or Royal Pavilion. Expect a personal touch-the owners are on hand to book tables and share local secrets.”
