Right, in a couple of weeks time I'm heading to Brighton with my wife and rather than do the usual day trip want to make more of a weekend of it.
We live in South London and will be driving down to see friends on the Saturday, however I was thinking about staying the Friday night either in Brighton or on the way(ish).
Do the good people of STW have any recommendations for nice hotels that fit this criteria? Someone in the countryside might be nice and in an ideal world not more than £130 for the night. Failing that, any recommendations for hotels in Brighton itself, have staying in a couple and they weren't anything special and looking on google brings up no end of places.
So, over to you guys...

Also look at the Gingerman restaurant for a bit of dinner.
South Lodge in Horsham is nice.
Also be aware that many hotels in Brighton work on a 2 night minimum stay..it's a pain.
Not so far off the track

Cbmotorsport - only in high season or the deluded mad tiny B&B ones.

Ah, ok. Only ever looked in Summer! 🙂
Hotel du Vin seem to be doing offers at the moment and they have one in the centre of Brighton.
Ive got go on the 18th Jan. Bestmate lives there/birthday- the Jan wind off the sea aint for sunbathing!
Some good pointers there everyone, will check them out.
Surprisingly there still seem to be a fair few places asking for a 2 night minimum, even on the 17th Jan. We have friends in Brighton and Lewes so know the places well but usually stay at their houses,know nothing about hotels! I'll see what I can find.
Cheers
could recommend this - just off th M23 - if you like an Old Manor House.
