"England’s Artist Residence hotels present an alternative view of what a boutique hotel can be: unpretentious, fun, and not a bit more luxurious than they need to be." - Mark Fedeli
"In the centre of Brighton, facing the iconic West Pier, this unique boutique-style guest house boasts individually decorated rooms with free Wi-Fi and quirky original artwork. This urban art hotel is housed in a Grade II Listed town house in Brighton's famous Regency Square. A cooked breakfast is available in the Gallery, which showcases the work of local and national artists as part of the frequent exhibitions on display. Each bedroom at Artist Residence is designed by a different artist, and some rooms have stunning views across the coast. Eclectic rooms have a flat-screen TV, a hairdryer and tea/coffee making facilities. Artist Residence is 2 minutes’ walk from Brighton Beach, and 10 minutes walk to the North Laine’s shops and Brighton's vibrant night life." - My Boutique Hotel (en)
"Over the past few years, Artist Residence Brighton has evolved from a quirky Regency guesthouse into the cool, cosmopolitan place to stay. In fact, it mirrors Brighton’s appeals perfectly: creative vintage styling, buzzy vibes, and an iconic seascape to gaze upon. Owners Justin and Charlie scoured markets and worked with local galleries to create the distinctive décor, and it’s really paid off – the hotel's bedrooms are a clever fusion of eclectic, classic and retro, while the spacious apartments next door let you live as the trendy Brightonians do. Rich dark paints, lived-in leather sofas and vintage furniture pay respect to the character and history of the architecture, while exposed walls, stripped floors and graphic signs evoke edgy loft-living. But there’s more to this place than looks. We spent most of our stay enjoying brunches, small plates and cocktails in the restaurant, and chilling out in our room's enormous tub. There really is something to suit every mood, just don’t forget to step outside and enjoy everything else Brighton has to offer, too. Highs Stylish and arty, with a fresh and informal vibe - stand-out rooms have sea views and in-room tubs There's a cool restaurant/bar downstairs that serves a mean cocktail - a great place to start your night out A range of rooms for all types, be it a cosy room for two, trendy apartments or bunk rooms for friends Lovely, friendly and helpful staff who instantly put you at ease Conveniently placed for both the station and the sights Lows Some reports of noise from the street being an issue in the basement and first-floor rooms, though we didn't notice any disturbance during our most recent stay The place fills up at weekends so book ahead The majority of rooms are tiny to compact, and most don't have wardrobes (hooks and hangers are provided instead); book an apartment if you want more space WiFi and data signal was patchy during our last visit" - Nadine Mellor
"England’s Artist Residence hotels present an alternative view of what a boutique hotel can be: unpretentious, fun, and not a bit more luxurious than they need to be. Artist Residence Brighton was the first, its rooms decorated by local artists in exchange for lodging, a scheme that lends them an individuality no designer could possibly have planned. So-called Tiny rooms are just that — though they’re stylish, and come with Nespresso machines — while the Bigger Balcony Sea View is exactly what it sounds like. The hotel's hip restaurant, Blakes, serves seasonal dishes from an open grill." - Tablet Hotels
"If Brighton was a hotel, it would probably be this quirky, art-themed, boho-chic hotel that sits at the head of Regency Square, looking straight out to sea. Every room is different, from small cubbyhole rooms up in the eaves, to light-filled rooms with clawfooted baths tucked away behind exposed brick walls. The art is a diverse mix that engages rather than overwhelms, with more works dotting the Clubhouse – a buzzy bar and restaurant that’s home to everyone from locals on their laptops to overseas guests. Although the hotel feels young and hip, the welcome is warm for travellers of all ages, and anyone who wants to get under the skin of this extraordinary city. " - Annabelle Thorpe
