Where is Leonardo Hotel Brighton?
This hotel is in the best location for any travellers heading to Brighton by train as it's a two-minute walk from the station.
The four-star hotel is right behind the central train station, it's incredibly easy to find and the perfect place to stay while exploring the seaside city.
Just a 15-minute walk from the hotel, there are shops aplenty, from classic brands to the vintage market - don't forget to stop at a local cafe for a coffee or an ice cream.
If you take a leisurely stroll down the main road, you'll be at the beach in under 30-minutes.
There's no parking at the hotel so any visitors by car will have to use the multi-storey or train station car park opposite the hotel.
What is the hotel like?
The first thing you'll notice in the Leonardo Hotel Brighton is a huge and welcoming reception area that literally says 'nice to see you'.
Next to that is plenty of seating that's bright and colourful with glowing neon signs and pretty potted plants.
There are games like table football too and even a little photo area too.
What is there to do there?
The hotel is the perfect vantage point for exploring the city, whether it's straight down to the beach or heading out for a night of clubbing, it's a great place to base yourself.
Popular attractions in the city include the pier, Victoria Gardens, Brighton Toy Museum and the i360 observation deck.
