Brighton is one of the most vibrant, lively and eclectic cities England has to offer. Once a quaint seaside town Brighton has become wildly popular with its electric bohemian undercurrent, the majestic Royal Pavilion and the wacky, tacky Brighton Pier.
Amongst so much fun and excitement, you’ll need a hostel that shares the same funky vibe as the city. You’ll need St. Christopher’s Brighton hostel. Located on the sea front opposite Palace Pier, you’ll find yourself in the thick of all the good-times you can handle.
The Royal Pavilion was commissioned by George VI and the exotic, Indian inspired building is royal extravagance. Daring colours, gilded dragons and imitation bamboo staircases adorn the inner rooms and present an extravagantly apt tribute to one of English royal histories most provocative characters.
There is no shortage of shopping opportunities in Brighton with the Lanes, a swirling mass of crossing streets overflowing with off-beat treasures, and the Artists Quarter, home to local studios selling individual one-off pieces from prints and paintings to wood carvings and wrought iron furniture. Still want more then head off to North Laine for a selection of independent shops where any
fusionist would feel right at home. The city centre is enclosed in a shocking one square mile, but there’s so much to see and do you’ll want to extend your stay so you don’t miss a thing.
