Best rooms
Request a room on the third or fourth floor overlooking the rear courtyard. The upper floors minimise street noise from Waterloo Street, and the courtyard side avoids the bin collection and early delivery trucks.
Request a room on the higher floors (4th or 5th floor) of Seafield House for a quieter stay. These floors are likely to be less noisy compared to the lower floors, which may be closer to the road and potential street noise from Seafield Road. The hotel's 4th and 5th floors are also more likely to have been renovated or updated, which could result in more modern amenities and a cleaner feel.
Rooms to avoid
First-floor rooms facing the street. Waterloo Street carries local traffic into Hove, so lower front rooms get road noise, especially from buses and delivery vans during morning hours.
Avoid rooms on the lower floors (1st to 3rd floor) if you're a light sleeper, as they may be closer to the street and could experience some noise from passing traffic. Additionally, rooms near the lift may experience some noise from its operation.
