Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Oban Hotel enjoys a fantastic location right opposite the beach and within walking distance of Eastbourne town centre, with some rooms offering amazing sea views from a balcony. You can also explore a free art gallery just behind the hotel. Many guests found the beds very comfortable, rooms clean, and appreciated the adequate heating, with some noting the modern double-glazed windows. While most rooms are spacious, a few guests have found some of the bathrooms to be on the smaller side.
