“Malmaison Brighton strikes me as a boutique spot with a lively brasserie at its heart, offering a distinctly British-French culinary blend. The marina-adjacent location is convenient, though perhaps not Brighton's prettiest corner. I appreciate that they welcome pets, and the free parking is a definite plus.”

the decor was beautiful. i found the staff very friendly. the staff were also helpful. i especially appreciated the cocktails late into the evening. breakfast was yummy, especially looking out over the marina.
the bedroom curtains let the light in. this caused me to wake up at 5am. the bathroom door did not fit the frame, so it couldn't be shut.
