This small, beautiful and unique penthouse apartment directly faces the sea right at the front of this iconic Grade II* listed Modernist building, enjoying stunning uninterrupted panoramic sea views from the living room, bedroom, and 7.3 x 1.7m private sun terrace. Patio doors open directly onto the terrace from both the living room and bedroom to make the most of the wonderful sea view. We're delighted to have been awarded the coveted TripAdvisor 'Certificate of Excellence' for the sixth consecutive year. Please note that while the apartment can sleep four with the sofa bed it is best suited to a couple, or two adults with up to two children, and we are unable to accept bookings for three or four adults. The apartment is only suitable for children aged 4 years and older.
We can also offer on-site parking at an extra nightly rate that is cheaper than on-street parking or the nearest car parks, a rarity with Brighton and Hove holiday apartments.
The apartment is furnished and equipped to a very high standard with everything you may need for your stay, including high quality Egyptian cotton bedlinen and soft White Company towels. It has fast wi-fi and there are wall-mounted LCD televisions in both living room and bedroom. It also has a beautiful bespoke Italian blue granite kitchen and a stunning bespoke designer bathroom with luxurious under-floor heating.
Embassy Court is a beautiful Grade II* listed 1930s Modernist building with a distinctive L-shape, and a stunning foyer with curved glass windows and a replica of the original 1935 mural by Edward McKnight Kauffer. Our apartment is at the front directly facing the sea so has stunning views, and is on the top floor of apartments which were the first ever purpose-built penthouses in the UK, so the apartment has a lovely architectural significance. The architect Wells Coates's top priority for the apartment was pleasure and making the most of the panoramic view so the private sun terrace, windows and glass doors run the length of the apartment giving a real sense of light, openness and space. Please note that the bedroom is very small and has restricted access to one side of the bed, but with the uninterrupted sea views pouring through the windows and patio doors you just need to sit up in bed to look out to sea!
The apartment is close to all that Brighton and Hove has to offer with its coveted shops and restaurants, and the Pier and famous Lanes are just a short stroll along the seafront. We have many fantastic amenities on our doorstep including one of the best rated restaurants in Brighton (The Gingerman). Waitrose, Sainsbury's and Taj supermarkets are a few minutes walk, Brighton and Hove stations are a few minutes by taxi, Gatwick Airport is thirty minutes by train, and London fifty minutes by train.
There is lift access but as a listed building with some steps and the lifts being very small we regret that there is no wheelchair access.
Please also note that the apartment is for the quiet enjoyment of those named on the booking and the number of guests on the booking only, and parties and gatherings are not permitted. Sorry, we cannot accept pets.
COVID-19 procedures: in addition to our usual thorough and deep clean between each guests, we will also clean every touchable surface with virucidal products. Virucidal hand gel will be available in the apartment and virucidal spray provided.
