Emma 10.0

Great value on a very busy weekend in Brighton. We were going to an event on the beach so it was the perfect location. Our room was on the top floor so lots of steps but our hosts were brilliant, helping with bags and they are a lovely, helpful couple!

Conor 10.0

Fab location as only 5 mins from pier and beach. Room was lovely and breakfast basket every day was a nice personal touch.

Leah 10.0

The location was perfect for us being central to Kemptown, which is a very inclusive part of Brighton. The guest house is close to a wide selection of cafes, bars and restaurants, but also within easy walking distance of the seafront, Lanes and main shopping area of the city. The property was very smart and well maintained. Our room was spotlessly clean and towels and other hospitality items were regularly changed and replenished. The bed was also very comfy! Our hosts, Scott and Helen were so friendly and welcoming, and whenever we crossed paths, took time to chat and pass on top tips of places to visit during our stay. A well presented information folder was also available in the room full of other recommendations if needed. We will certainly book again on our next visit, a lovely place to stay!

Jitka 10.0

Lovely owners, very clean room, quiet street, nearby the beach. Should I go to Brighton again, I would like to reserve the same room. Thank you for your hospitality.

Kelvin 10.0

I have stayed here twice now and the couple running the guest house were incredibly polite and friendly, the room was cleaned daily while I was away and had a bowl with fruit and snacks that were refilled daily as well (this was very useful for leaving quickly in the morning) The guest house was located a very short walk from the city centre but with plenty to do on the doorstep

About This Hotel

Aquarium Guest House sits in the fashionable Kemp Town area just steps from the Brighton seafront and a short stroll to the city centre. The property is located at 13 Madeira Place in BN2 1TN, placing you within easy reach of the iconic Brighton Pier, The Lanes shopping district and the Royal Pavilion. With six guest rooms and a reputation for stylish comfort, this four star retreat offers a reliable base for a quick seaside city break. The pier is roughly a three minute walk away, and a five minute stroll will take you to The Lanes and the Royal Pavilion, making it easy to mix beach time with culture and nightlife. Location and surroundings Kemp Town is known for its lively yet relaxed atmosphere andits close proximity to the water. From Aquarium Guest House you can enjoy the fresh sea air along the promenade, then slip into the heart of Brighton’s cultural and culinary scene when you want a break from the shore. The guest house places you at the edge of the seafront, with easy access to central sights, boutique shops and popular cafes, so you can design a day that blends coastline strolls with urban exploration. The short walking distance to the pier means you can harvest a day of sun and sea and still be back in minutes for a relaxed evening in town. Beach and sea view potential The photo gallery associated with the listing highlights sea views and the possibility of a balcony or terrace in some rooms. While not every room is explicitly described as sea facing, the collection of images suggests a bright, coastal ambience and the kind of light that makes the most of a day by the ocean. Guests who value a coastal atmosphere can look forward to a stylish interior that complements the proximity to the sea and the energy of Brighton’s waterfront district. Rooms and comfort There are six rooms in total at Aquarium Guest House, each contributing to a boutique, contemporary feel that aligns with the four star rating. The property is described as stylish, and the photos show well made beds and thoughtfully arranged spaces. Because the listing emphasizes style and location over large facilities, guests can expect a comfortable and pleasant room experience that suits short breaks, city sightseeing and seaside strolls. Some rooms feature balcony or terrace access, providing an extra touch of outdoor space where available and offering the chance to enjoy fresh air and sea glimpses from the privacy of your own room. Dining and beverages The listing does not specify any on site dining facilities or meals. While there are images in the gallery that touch on food presentation, there is no explicit information about a restaurant, cafe or breakfast service at Aquarium Guest House. Guests should plan to explore local options nearby or within Brighton’s city centre, which is easy to reach on foot from the guest house. Family friendliness and activities A key factor for many travellers is policy clarity, and Aquarium Guest House is explicit about its family options. Children are not allowed, and there is no capacity for extra beds or cots. The maximum occupancy per room is two guests. Check in is available from 12:00 to 21:00, and check out can be completed between 08:00 and 11:00. The minimum age for check in is 18. WiFi is free in all areas, and public parking is available nearby with a reservation required. These policies indicate that the property lends itself to adults seeking a quiet, intimate base for a Brighton break rather than a family holiday. Relaxation, wellness and entertainment There is no mention of an on site spa or dedicated wellness facilities. Instead, Aquarium Guest House offers a convenient seaside location that enables relaxed days by the water and easy access to Brighton’s cultural attractions. Guests can combine a calm, stylish room with walks along the seafront, or quick forays into the Royal Pavilion, The Lanes and other nearby highlights for entertainment and discovery during their stay. Who this hotel is ideal for This guest house is particularly well suited to adults seeking a chic, city centre crimeor seaside escape. It appeals to couples and solo travellers who prioritise location, design and simplicity over extensive hotel facilities. If you want a stylish base within walking distance of the seafront, the pier, The Lanes and the Royal Pavilion, Aquarium Guest House offers a compact, well presented option with a strong guest rating and a focus on a comfortable, convenient Brighton experience.
