Our wedding reception at the Pier suite at The View Hotel was, quite simply, perfect.

When planning our wedding, Elodie and I wanted an intimate occasion to allow us to spend as much time together with our guests as possible. We looked at several venues in Eastbourne, including restaurants and …

other hotels, but knew immediately when we visited the View that it was going to be the right venue for our reception. The pier suite has spectacular views of the sea and was the perfect size for our roughly 20 guests.

The Events co-ordinator, Mel, talked us through the whole process and was incredibly helpful throughout. She helped with details both big and small, and was always available to contact when we had questions. This included catering for guests of all ages, with different dietary requirements, helping guide our drinks order (the most important part of any wedding!) and giving us early access to the room to allow for decorations to make the room exactly how we wanted it.

On the day, our reception was managed by the lovely Sammie, who ensured that everything was perfect for us. Sammie and the team went out of their way to ensure that we, and our guests, had an amazing time. From the moment we arrived (earlier than expected!) and were welcomed to the room with a glass of fizz, we felt immediately at ease and the care the staff took of us and our guests really exceeded our expectations.

The drinks were flowing, the music was playing and the food was delicious. We couldn’t recommend the View more highly and despite being locals, Elodie and I will definitely be visiting again.

We want to say a big thank you to everyone involved in our day, it truly was unforgettable and the View played a big part in that.

The View Hotel in Eastbourne offers the perfect setting with its modern architecture compared to other venues in the surrounding areas.

Kendra and Mel were fantastic to deal with, and I was impressed with how quickly they responded to my questions and how friendly they were. I would recommend …

this events team to anyone looking for great service. They were amazing throughout the whole event. They were very attentive and super-helpful, making sure that we had everything we needed to make our experience unforgettable.

Daisy was lovely and always had a beautiful smile on her face. We are very impressed by Maxim's service. He constantly checked on us and refilled our drinks, and he also assisted us with moving our wedding gifts to our room. He was very attentive and helpful throughout our stay. I had the pleasure of having Mel with me that day. She did more than what was expected of her and ensured that everything was perfect. I am so grateful for her presence and support. She made me feel confident and happy throughout the day. She is truly a wonderful person and I appreciate her so much.

We had the most amazing wedding day at The View Hotel. All of the staff were amazing from beginning to end, even coming up for a dance with us all at the end of the night! The rooms we used looked beautiful, and nothing was too much trouble. Without a single doubt, we made the perfect choice to have …

our day here, and we can't thank the whole team enough.

Our wedding at The View was everything I had ever dreamt of. From the moment we first visited the hotel, we felt valued and welcomed. Mel was absolutely superb. She put my mind at ease and helped me throughout the entire year leading up to the big day. She answered all my questions, offered …

suggestions, and made our day so special.

I look back at the photos and videos and beam with joy. It was so perfect and beautiful. The staff were brilliant, and everyone talked about how lovely the food was. The hotel rooms were spotless and perfectly suited to us. We will be visiting The View every year on our anniversary to celebrate.

Thank you so much for making the biggest day of our lives the best day of our lives. We will forever be thankful.

We wanted to choose a wedding-licensed venue with the "wow" factor, especially for our guests coming from far and wide. Having stayed at The View on previous visits, I was familiar with many of its facilities, contemporary style, and excellent location. I made initial enquiries with The View, along …

with other contenders, and after our first non-committal meeting with Mel and Jasmin from the Events Team, we quickly knew we were in the right place – one that couldn’t be bettered.

Communication was excellent throughout the five months of planning, from our first enquiry to the fond farewell when we finally checked out after our very special day. We had a plethora of questions during this time, and these were promptly answered by Mel Bohnen, our Wedding & Events Executive, with whom we had the most interactions. She was a pleasure to deal with throughout. She provided valuable feedback on many of our ideas for the day, based on her vast experience. Some ideas became part of our updated contract, while others we discarded as unachievable, resulting in a very successful and enjoyable day.

The service was impeccable. With 100 guests, they delivered without fail and kept on top of everything, which can’t be an easy task. Nothing was too much trouble, thanks to their "can-do" spirit. In particular, their attention to guests with pre-notified dietary requirements was spot on, even during the canapé offering at the champagne reception, where there were dedicated plates for these guests.

The food was excellent and enjoyed by all, and Maxime and Daisy, in particular, kept our glasses topped up, especially for the wedding couple. Please extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone involved who made our day the success it was. Your teams are indeed a credit to The View.
