Or should you book an AirBnB and risk a less-than-pleasant break? Step forward Regency Square Suites, a new collection of apartments that bridges the gap nicely. Interiors are fit for a five-star, done up in gentle beige, blues and greens with lighting and cabinetry from local makers and toiletries by The White Company. Meanwhile, this being a strictly self-catering stay, there are kitchens for snacks and breakfasts stocked with Bird &amp; Blend teas, Grind coffee, oils, herbs and \u2013 in some apartments \u2013 even cocktail bars, complete with books to help guests whisk up exotic tipples.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><ev-engagement id=\"horizon_hello\" group-name=\"horizon_hello\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"eG4gnuIWvx2\" data-wc=\"66\">There are a variety of configurations here. In the basement, the newest apartment will be geared to bridal parties (though equally suitable for families) with a make-up station adjoining what may be the world\u2019s most glamorous dorm-style room configuration. For romance, Suite Three is the one to book, with its grand bay window, soaring ceilings and cosseting bedroom, but there are two-bedroom suites for families too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fr-embedded\">\n<div data-wc=\"75\" id=\"ek-x-sLT0j\">\n<figure class=\"he-meIm-995f02\">\n<div class=\"he-imCo-14461c5\"><img src=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/cace015c01a3-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a0575a.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width:1360px) 630px, (min-width:960px) 60vw, (min-width:320px) calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2)), calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2))\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/cace015c01a3-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a0575a.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_960 960w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/cace015c01a3-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a0575a.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_640 640w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/cace015c01a3-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a0575a.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_360 360w\" width=\"545\" height=\"479\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Sea views and five-star interiors\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image he-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/><span class=\"he-imCr-1233683\">\u00a9 James French<\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"he-meImCa-17135c3\">Sea views and five-star interiors<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"4\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfek\">Overall score \u2013 8\/10<\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"4\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfel\">The setting \u2013 8\/10<\/h2>\n<p id=\"eeygp62_no6\" data-wc=\"108\">Directly opposite Brighton\u2019s famous i360, this once-grand, 19th-century piazza is a popular place to stay \u2013 the Regency Square Suites joins two hotels at its slightly scruffy edges. Book a sea view room for impressive views of the Big Blue and the ruins of West Pier (the property\u2019s town-facing studios are designed for the conference crowd). The city\u2019s pebbly beach is right on the doorstep and Hove\u2019s villagey High Street is westwards, while the cafes and boutiques of North Laine are a slightly longer stroll away. The only downside is the walk from the train station \u2013 a 15-minute traipse through some of the city\u2019s less salubrious bits.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fr-embedded\">\n<div data-wc=\"75\" id=\"elhqJ-gB3r\">\n<figure class=\"he-meIm-995f02\">\n<div class=\"he-imCo-14461c5\"><img src=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/440b6ef2d89f-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a1115.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width:1360px) 630px, (min-width:960px) 60vw, (min-width:320px) calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2)), calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2))\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/440b6ef2d89f-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a1115.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_960 960w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/440b6ef2d89f-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a1115.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_640 640w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/440b6ef2d89f-260424-29rs-s03-jf-final-photos-web-use-g14a1115.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_360 360w\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The apartments are two minutes' walk from the sea\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image he-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/><span class=\"he-imCr-1233683\">\u00a9 James French<\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"he-meImCa-17135c3\">The apartments are two minutes&#8217; walk from the sea<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"3\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfem\">Eat \u2013 7\/10<\/h2>\n<p id=\"e6pt7jZy-rc\" data-wc=\"80\">Though the property has no restaurant, it can organise for platters to be delivered from <a class=\"hm-link he-link\" href=\"https:\/\/antipastobythesea.com\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"article-body-link\">Antipasto By The Sea<\/a>.

Light sleepers may, however, find the green lights just above the beds (linked to alarms of some sort) disturb their slumber. Surprisingly for a listed building in busy Brighton, the soundproofing is excellent and our apartment felt incredibly peaceful. Touches such as snuggly towels and cosy cushions up the comfort factor.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fr-embedded\">\n<div data-wc=\"75\" id=\"eO5tS_IH6C\">\n<figure class=\"he-meIm-995f02\">\n<div class=\"he-imCo-14461c5\"><img src=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/77094b524566-copy-of-regency-square-suites-suite-5james-french-1.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width:1360px) 630px, (min-width:960px) 60vw, (min-width:320px) calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2)), calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2))\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/77094b524566-copy-of-regency-square-suites-suite-5james-french-1.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_960 960w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/77094b524566-copy-of-regency-square-suites-suite-5james-french-1.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_640 640w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/77094b524566-copy-of-regency-square-suites-suite-5james-french-1.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_360 360w\" width=\"1280\" height=\"770\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Beds ace the comfort factor\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image he-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/><span class=\"he-imCr-1233683\">\u00a9 James French<\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"he-meImCa-17135c3\">Beds ace the assignment<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"0\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfeo\"><\/h2>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"3\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfep\">Value \u2013 8\/10<\/h2>\n<p id=\"egHmFODug-qd\" data-wc=\"55\">For a special occasion treat, the suites feel spoiling \u2013 but, if you normally check into hotels, note that revamped rooms at Brighton\u2019s only five-star, The Grand, can be cheaper than this one\u2019s seaview options in peak season and don\u2019t come with a two-night minimum stay. \u00a0Apartments sleeping up to four cost from \u00a3286, self-catering.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fr-embedded\">\n<div data-wc=\"75\" id=\"eTt2S_T8xK\">\n<figure class=\"he-meIm-995f02\">\n<div class=\"he-imCo-14461c5\"><img src=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/bdb3f84a5b5a-g14a1696.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width:1360px) 630px, (min-width:960px) 60vw, (min-width:320px) calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2)), calc(100vw - (var(--page-gutter) * 2))\" srcset=\"https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/bdb3f84a5b5a-g14a1696.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_960 960w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/bdb3f84a5b5a-g14a1696.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_640 640w, https:\/\/images.hellomagazine.com\/horizon\/large_original_aspect_ratio\/bdb3f84a5b5a-g14a1696.jpg?tx=c_limit,w_360 360w\" width=\"2500\" height=\"1667\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Suite One's fabulous dressing area\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image he-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/><span class=\"he-imCr-1233683\">\u00a9 James French<\/span><\/div><figcaption class=\"he-meImCa-17135c3\">Suite One&#8217;s fabulous dressing area<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" data-wc=\"2\" id=\"h2-4mslkqfeq\">Additional information<\/h2>\n<p id=\"e7QPuMOw2Zme\" data-wc=\"2\"><strong>Website<\/strong>: <a class=\"hm-link he-link\" href=\"http:\/\/sigmaplushotels.co.uk\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"article-body-link\">sigmaplushotels.co.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"e8dBHnn40Upp\" data-wc=\"11\"><strong>Address<\/strong>: Sigma Plus Regency Square Suites, 29 Regency Square, BN1 2FH<\/p>\n<p id=\"eWKWhiYnv9Rc\" data-wc=\"3\"><strong>Phone<\/strong>: 01273 328296\u00a0<\/p>\n<p id=\"eKojSHR3zPBp\" data-wc=\"2\"><strong>Accessible<\/strong>: No<\/p>\n<p id=\"e-sAsyVOngwi\" data-wc=\"2\"><strong>Family-friendly<\/strong>: Yes<\/p>\n<p id=\"ewD3dOlpBEY2\" data-wc=\"2\"><strong>Dog-friendly<\/strong>: No<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A trip to Brighton comes with a conundrum: with so many brilliant restaurants and bars, do you really need a hotel stay?
