EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a bygone era with this evocative advertisement for the Princes Hotel, Hove, Brighton, from 1917. Located on Grand Avenue, opposite the famous Hove Lawns and the sea, the Princes Hotel boasted the finest position in Brighton. As the fashionable resorts of Northern France became impossible destinations during the First World War, Brighton emerged as a popular alternative for members of society seeking a reprieve from the harsh realities of the war. The Princes Hotel welcomed convalescent soldiers, offering them a chance to rest and recover in the seaside town's invigorating coastal air. With the promise of a luxurious stay, this advertisement invites us to imagine the elegance and sophistication of a bygone era. The Princes Hotel, with its imposing facade and prime location, stands as a testament to the enduring allure of the Brighton seaside, even in the midst of wartime hardships.
