Parking is a bit of a nightmare as it is right next to The Lanes. There is a good cafe on the seafront that is open 24 hours and sells Pizza and Beer!!!!

I think Tony (Penmare) is the man who should be able to answer that one.

This gig was last night. Really good night disco wise and enjoyed my couple of days in Brighton. If i wasnt going aboard in Sept I would of made more of a week of this!
Everything they say about Brighton is true! but thats not a bad thing in fact its pretty cool. Picked two great days to go down as the weather was awesome! Surprised by how many French hotel workers down there!
In regards to access to the hotel its the worse one Ive done! Had to load in through the loading bay. Take stuff out of the van and put up onto a platform and then climb yes climb up a 6ft ladder to get onto the platform. Then walk through at least five fire doors which have to stay shut and they are randomly set so you can push the first two but then pull the next one so when carrying something with both hands you have to put it down then open door etc...
Staff clearly dont talk to each other and one point during the night I asked for the lights to be dimmed down or turned out in one half of the room so the people sat down at the end would still have some light. 2 minutes the lights are still on and I have no power! Yep you guessed it made me look a twit!
Power points didnt seem an issue when enterting the room. Two sockets near where I was meant to be setting up great!. Closer inspection they had disabled one of them. Next one closest was also disabled so I had to in the end grab my 25m cable and run the cable all round the room and up over the double doors which wasnt ideal but I had no other choice.
Shame as its a really nice venue! Awesome view of the sea so if you want a good hotel in Brighton stay there!
