The best accommodations Southeast

Dreaming of a night in a castle? It's possible at Leeds Castle! This unique experience lets you sleep in one of the elegant rooms on the grounds and in the ramparts, where, for example, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Winston Churchill and even Charlie Chaplin have stayed. We love the delicious breakfast and the picturesque views over the surrounding countryside. Glamping offers in small circus tents are also available. Unusual!

Extravagant, stylish and trendy, Blanch House is just like Brighton. It is still one of the most beautiful addresses in the city. For a chic and personalized stay, choose this small hotel with twelve facets, one for each room. Taffeta curtains, colourful duvets or sparkling chandeliers, it's up to you! It is located right next to the seaside in the Kemptown area. It also has a champagne bar and cocktails. We also like breakfast made with local products. The staff is great too. No shadows on the horizon.

This hostel is a good address. Located just a few meters from both the train and bus stations, Central Backpackers is a safe bet. The dormitories are pleasant, as are the communal areas (terrace, kitchen, cinema/relaxation room). On the downside, being located next to a pub, you may be disturbed by the noise, especially at weekends. At least, if you're going to party next door, you won't have long to get back. A warm welcome!

Inaugurated in 1890 by the Prince of Wales, this magnificent seafront hotel has won numerous awards. Its 92 rooms are modern, elegant but above all comfortable, spacious and equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and even afternoon tea can be enjoyed in the large dining room. To pamper yourself, head for the spa with its sauna, hammam, whirlpool, heated pool and gym. A wonderful address for a relaxing stay.
