Our visit to the Brighton i360 was, unfortunately, a bit disappointing.
First, the weather didn’t help—it was very cloudy on the day, which meant the views were far less impressive than expected. We knew that was beyond their control, but the rest of the experience didn’t make up for it.
The ride is advertised as lasting 30 minutes, but our tickets were for the 6:00–6:30 pm slot and we were back down by 6:20 pm—so just 20 minutes in total. It would have been nice if they had lingered longer at the top to make the most of the view.
After the security check, we noticed a small bar in the waiting area, but there were no staff on hand to serve drinks. It felt like it was just there for show, which was disappointing.
Considering the online price was £18.50 per person (and even more—£20.50—at the ticket counter), it felt expensive for what we got. Between the short ride, average views, and lack of service, it wasn’t great value for money.
