A UK seaside hotel in Eastbourne has plunged into administration, according to The Gazette notice. Administrators Andrew Andronikou and Andrew Hosking, both of BTG Begbies Traynor, were appointed on May 14. OYO Devonshire Park Hotel is located in a Victorian-era building opposite the Towner Eastbourne and the Congress Theatre. Situated around 200 metres from Eastbourne seafront, the hotel is within walking distance of local attractions including Eastbourne Pier and the Eastbourne Bandstand. The nearby Beachy Head cliffs can be reached in approximately five minutes by car.

The hotel provides spacious en-suite rooms equipped with free Wi-Fi, satellite television and DVD players, along with complimentary designer toiletries.

The property offers free private on-site parking and operates a 24-hour reception service. Guests also have access to two lounge areas featuring a small library and a DVD collection. The hotel’s Godfreys Restaurant serves breakfast daily and opens for dinner on selected evenings each week. An on-site bar offers beer, wine and mixed drinks.

It is fairly popular among visitor, with a 4.7 out of 5 stars rating on Tripadvisor and over 1,500 reviews. The last customer commented in May: “Excellent place to stay central foe what we wanted. Rooms very comfy. Staff very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was excellent also. Highly recommend.”

Another wrote: “Very nice hotel with parking and just across the road from the Congress Theatre. The only disadvantages are there is no fridge in the rooms and no air-conditioning. But it is a three star hotel not a five star. The staff are really nice. This Lovely traditionally English decor. The bed was super comfortable and the breakfast was really delicious. I would stay here again.”

The Daily Express has approached the administrators for a comment.
