“Just off Brighton's seafront, this period property places you moments from the beach and vibrant Kemptown; inside, the Cosmobar presents relaxed surroundings and signature cocktails. I think the location hits a sweet spot-close to the pier and a short walk to local restaurants, bars and shopping. For me, it's a solid choice for a Brighton getaway.”
