Food. Not the best sadly. This establishment could do SOOOOO much.
Quality is dry, bland and you get the feeling it’s been made, frozen and reheated!

If you’re a rambler, and you happen to be rambling around the South Downs at Woodingdean, the Downs hotel is a good stop off to refuel. I haven’t eaten anything here (although you can enjoy a cooked meal for around £6 and up) but it’s not a bad place to look out over the downs and sup your wine or cask ale on a summer’s afternoon. Nothing out of the ordinary, and the staff could be a little cheerier, but the building itself is beautiful.

What is it the makes a visit to the Downs Hotel an invariably dispiriting experience? It has an unrivalled location facing across the eponymous South Downs to the Channel. But that’s where the charm begins and ends. The food is ordinary, the ale is fine but nothing special, the staff are friendly enough but seem lacking in esprit de corps.
When Woodingdean was cut off from civilisation during the recent bad weather, the pub was amazingly transformed into what it should be a bustling local. As soon as people got the chance to vote with their feet, bus passes and car engines, it reverted to type as a tired looking boozer past its best.
Visitors report that the bedrooms could also benefit from some TLC. All-​in-​all the Downs is a missed opportunity. It would be a shame, though, to see it go the way of other failed pubs a victim of the smoking ban, cheap supermarket booze and, not least, owner inertia.

I love this place as its hard to combine a hotel, pub and restaurant and make it work. Something usually has to give and I guess in this case its the food in a small way as it is a carvery but a very good one in my opinion.
The surroundings of the hotel are fantastic, just near the beautiful village of Rottingdean and not too far at all from the seafront with fantastic views of the South Downs.
The Hotel offers some really good rates and the rooms are extremely clean, tidy and comfortable. A single room with shared facilities are £30 but I’d go for the four-​poster en-​suite for £80 if you want to impress your fellow guest!
