Seaview Terrace at Jurys Inn Brighton

Head up to Seaview Terrace and you'll get what the name promises—actual vistas across the water that make you remember why you moved to Brighton. It's perched above the seafront on Kings Road, so you're not fighting through sticky-floored dive bars to earn your drink. The terrace itself is the whole point here; you're trading indoor cosiness for the kind of outdoor space that works even when the weather's being typically British. Perfect for catching the light at golden hour with a drink in hand, or when you want to feel like you're doing something different without leaving the main drag.
