Hastings has lots of accommodation and motels. There are no upscale large chains operating in Hastings i.e. The Hilton, but Hastings now has one international hotel, the Comfor Inn. Hastings does not use this as an excuse to be unwelcoming though and the range of independent small hotel opertors are more welcoming and plesant than one would expect from a large chain anyway. They offer a wide variety of accommodation experiences that can enhance your trip to Hastings. This is the best way to enjoy the Hastings atmosphere, as it immerses you in the rich culture of the people.
