What a wonderful find, The Laindons is a 5* gem in the heart of the old town of Hastings, close to the shops and cafes and a stone's throw from the beach and promenade. The East Cliff lift is a short walk away. Our room was lovely, sparklingly clean, beautifully decorated with a comfortable bed, armchairs to relax in, and basically absolutely everything you would need for a weekend stay. The attention to detail is second to none....lovely toiletries, robes, fluffy towels, sleep spray, full tea/coffee table, fresh milk, an honesty bar, and much much more. And breakfast was simply delicious and as fresh as could be with locally sourced ingredients, all served by the most lovely friendly people. There is a lounge for guests and a myriad of eclectic interesting decorative features to discover. Parking was easy, there's a car park just behind the house, and a permit is supplied covering the hours of 4pm-11am and the car park uses the Ringo app so you can top up the extra daytime hours without even being nearby. We just left the car where it was and used local buses to get around when we wanted to go further afield. Would recommend The Laindons to anyone, we loved it

The Laindons is in a perfect quiet location. Our exceptionally spacious room had many beautiful touches of extra comfort. The superb breakfasts are served in a lovely bright conservatory on the first upper floor. We loved the sumptuously comfortable and relaxing lounge with its excellent honesty bar area. Malcolm and Karen have created somewhere very special in heart of Hastings Old Town.

A wonderful visit to the Laindons! Beautiful comfort, original artwork and delicious breakfasts. Every attention to detail for the guests.Locally sourced products for breakfast and beautifully presented and very tasty indeed. Karen and Malcolm are warm, generous hosts. We spent two nights and felt like we had been away much longer.

What a delightful stay at The Laidons. We are just on the train back and we felt compelled to write a review. From start to finish you feel truly taken care of. Lovely touches in the room like Teapigs teas and lovely biscuits. Really nice shower gel too. Pillows and bed linen were also exceptional and the bed was incredibly comfy.

The hosts - Karen & Malcolm were so hospitable & helpful. The Laindons Guest House is situated in an excellent location in Old Town, Hastings. We stayed in the Red room which presented the look and feel of a boutique hotel room: High end bed linen, gorgeous toiletries - the facilities in the room and throughout the property were fabulous with every attention to detail made. The selection & quality of the produce at breakfast was outstanding - fresh and locally sourced - we would thoroughly recommend the home made granola with berry compote - exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble for Malcolm who oversaw the breakfast service. We would definitely recommend this establishment & we wouldn’t look to stay anywhere else in Old Town, Hastings as and when we return in future.

Karen and Malcolm are very welcoming, and provide an hospitable, comfortable and charming guest house. They couldn't have been more helpful. It is very well located in the heart of the Old Town, the rooms are nicely appointed, there is a fridge where milk is provided, and the bed has lovely linens and a warm duvet. We will go again when next in Hastings.

We recently stayed at The Laindons for a second time. Once again, Karen and Malcolm made us most welcome. Their Georgian town house is beautifully appointed, full of character and conveniently sited in the Old Town. We requested the Green Room which was spacious and spotlessly clean. The super-king sized bed was very comfortable and we slept well. The breakfast was superb. Karen's home-made oat and fruit compote and cakes were delicious as were the blueberry pancakes with maple syrup! There was parking close by and the parking pass, provided by The Laindons, was most useful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Karen and Malcolm for being the wonderful hosts.
