Nice

Above expectations
I have stayed here a couple of times and would say it's slightly better than the rest along the seafront.
The rooms are average (if a little poky) but I think the main reception area is extremely welcoming - nice big comfy sofa's and table service!
The restaurant has won awards, it's one of the only places in Brighton to be awarded 2 AA rosettes.
Also, the restaurant has great views looking out onto the sea.

I feel sorry for the window cleaner...

As expected
The Thistle is the all-glass hotel on Brighton seafront. Although I've never stayed there (I live up the road so that would be daft) I did used to be a member at their leisure club and have been in the bar a few times.
It's an angular, odd looking place but pretty big and good for business travellers I would think. The lounge/bar area in the centre of the hotel is overlooked from the inside by some of the bedrooms...strange but quirky I suppose.
The leisure facilities are ok...not the best I've seen...but there is a small pool and gym...and a sauna if my memory serves me right. Not a bad place to relax after a hard day's networking...or whatever it is you do!
