Fodor's "Here the imaginations of designers have been given free rein, and the result is a vicarious romp through pop culture and rock and roll." Full review
Insight Guides "All rooms are playfully designed – and have their own playstations – in this chic hotel in the best-preserved Regency square in town. <br>."
Lonely Planet "One of Brighton's sexiest and nuttiest place to stay, the Pelirocco takes the whole theme concept to another level and has become the ultimate venue for a flirty, rock-and-roll weekend in style." Full review
Rough Guide "Self-styled rock’n’roll hangout with extravagantly themed rooms inspired by pop culture and pin-ups, a bohemian atmosphere and a late-opening bar."

"Calling itself "England's most Rock 'n' Roll hotel" certainly gives the upper-middle-range Hotel Pelirocco a lot to live up to, but it makes a sterling effort." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Perfect for arty weekenders, Hotel Pelirocco offers tongue-in-cheek themed rooms with a retro-rockabilly twist." Full review
Independent "Sassy and saucy, this 19-room boutique hotel takes kitsch up a notch: hot pinks, glitter sofas, mirrored ceilings – you name it, they’ve bought into it"
Independent "If clashing and kitsch does it for you, then one of the Pelirocco’s 19 bedrooms is bound to please...a firm favourite with locals, its breakfast room-cum-cocktail bar stages DJ nights and live gigs."
