The experience

We have taken over a 20 room seaside B&B and are on a mission to make it the most friendly hotel in Eastbourne...and making people feel less lonely.

We need help with creating an incredible experience for our guests, from the welcome at reception, the service at breakfast, and how clean and fresh the hotel looks.

You will be part of our housekeeping team to make sure the hotel, the rooms and the outside look amazing for our guests.
