Brighton ratings & reviews
What our students said about Brighton
Brighton is an amazing place to spend there a wonderful vacation even on rainy days there are a lots of phenomenal attractions as rides on Brighton Pier or streets that look like from a fairytale.
Lots of fun-loving people, lots of dated buildings, lots to look at, endless take-aways and pubs, lots of entertainment options.
Nice places to see. I enjoyed the sea. The Royal Pavilion is spectacular. By my personal choice I did not practice nightlife.
Beautifully situated by the sea and interesting for a little while. Nightlife? Was there with parents because I was too young
Very nice city and there are a lot of kind people in Brighton. I was meant to move to London, but I'll stay here more time.
Brighton is a place for young people like me, it offers a lot and you never get bored
I think the city is great. I felt very comfortable and visited many beautiful places.
I was in Hastings, not in Brighton. I have left unanswered what I have not done.
Many possibilities, beach, nice streets, an accepting and friendly atmosphere.
Brighton is a beautiful, lively and welcoming city I would happily return to
