The New Steine Hotel

This boutique hotel is a smart choice for a classy stag do. Set in a five-storey Georgian townhouse, just a few minutes walk from the Pier, it’s run and owned by the charming Hervé, who has created a vibe that is sophisticated, yet homely and inviting. There’s a little restaurant serving authentic French bistro dishes like duck confit and baked camembert, with a nice wine list, and a private dining room. This is a place to treat yourselves – the hotel can arrange for you to have a massage in your room, and there’s a 24-hour room service menu and concierge, and the bar is open for guests around the clock.

When you step out of the door, you’ll find yourselves in the heart of happening Kemptown, one of Brighton’s most colourful areas with lots of places to eat and late night bars. You’re right behind the seafront, so beach life is on your doorstep, and just a few minutes walk from the main clubbing strip of West Street, where you can keep on ‘til the break of dawn. Back at the New Madeira, the comfortable rooms have TVs with up to 45 channels of entertainment. Wake up to a lush full English breakfast with locally sourced produce or enjoy the continental breakfast buffet – which you can have sent to your room if you want to hang there.
