Perfect Stay
Absolutely wonderful stay.
Room was beautiful, with added bonus of sofa and reclining chair making the room a home from home.
Excellent position 5 mins from seafront and Congress Theatre.
Wonderful breakfast, lovely bar area for a night cap if needed, Chris & Caroline are perfect hosts, warm and friendly.
Can not recommend highly enough.

Had a great stay here! Chris and Caroline were very well informed about the area, Chris' tip about the bus for the seven sisters really helped out! The place is clean, breakfast has something for everyone and they're willing to make changes if needed. Everything was great, no faults!

A gem of a hotel
Another lovely stay at this charming hotel. Chris & Caroline are the perfect hosts, and go out of their way to make you feel at home. The rooms are immaculately clean and comfortable. Breakfast is delicious, and beautifully presented. The location is perfect for access to the seafront, shops, theatres, restaurants/cafes and walks up to Beachy Head and beyond. Definitely recommended.

This is our second stay at The Ravilious and we were not disappointed.This gorgeous B & B stands out from all the rest. The owners Chris and Caroline were extremely welcoming and informative. The rooms and communal areas are tastefully decorated and exceptionally clean. The breakfast is tasty and freshly cooked, two of our party had full breakfast which they enjoyed , someone else had scrambled egg which they raved about, and I myself had omelette both mornings and it was delicious. The property is in a fantastic location for a flat walk to the beach & pier & town centre. Please do not hesitate to book your stay, you will not be disappointed.,

Very good location for both sea and town, easy parking albeit at a small cost, very friendly hosts and an excellent breakfast. Stairs to our room provided our daily cardiac exercise. Will happily visit again if we return to the area.

Upon arrival we had a very warm welcome from Chris and Caroline. They took time to advise us about a few good restaurants in the area, things that we could do in the day. Chris kindly took our bag up to the first floor for us, something that doesn’t happen very often in other establishments we’ve stayed in. Our room (room 6) was spacious and immaculate. We both had a full English breakfast which was delicious. Thank you both for a lovely, relaxing stay. Kate and Stuart
