Living etc “Eat, drink and be merry - Head to Brighton’s Kemp Townhouse for a laid-back winter break in the lap of luxury ”

“The decor is so nice that my wife has had our whole house decorated in the same colours.”

Kemp Townhouse boutique hotel is in Atlingworth Street, a quiet location in the heart of Kemptown Brighton, just off the sea front. It is close to the beach as well as restaurants, shops and Brighton’s thriving night life.

"It's in good company with one of the original Brighton boutique hotels a few doors up" (The Independent)

How to find us

By train: From Brighton station, walk down the hill towards the sea front and turn left (east). After a few minutes you will see Brighton Pier. Head towards it, and once there walk up towards the marina along Marine Parade. You will find Atlingworth Street just off to the left. It’s about a 25-minute walk. Alternatively, if you don’t fancy the walk, a taxi from Brighton station will cost around £7.

By car: Follow the M23/A23 towards the Brighton seafront. Keep going until you see Brighton Pier in front of you. Turn left at the roundabout towards Brighton Marina and Atlingworth Street is about 500 metres on your left, three roads past New Steine (small square). Atlingworth Street is a one-way street facing south, so you should turn left off the Seafront onto Lower Rock Gardens (two roads past New Steine), then right onto St James’s Street and immediately right again onto Atlingworth Street.

Parking: As with all areas of central Brighton, parking is very limited. We can offer visitors parking vouchers for Atlingworth Street and the surrounding streets, although there is no guarantee of available street parking. Vouchers are £8 per 24 hours. Alternatively, metered street parking can also be found in surrounding streets, with the same limitations on availability. There is also an NCP car park just five minutes’ walk from Kemp Townhouse in the High Street (see map). It costs £10 for 12-24 hours.

By coach to Brighton: You arrive at Pool Valley Coach Station, which is close to Brighton pier and only a 10-minute walk to boutique hotel Kemp Townhouse. If you are travelling by bus during busy periods, we recommend booking your tickets in advance, as seats can fill up.

By plane: Gatwick Airport is the closest airport to Brighton (about 40 minutes away by car and 25 minutes away by train). Heathrow is 70 minutes away by car or 90 minutes by National Express.
