FOUR Wetherspoons’ pub toilets have won recognition in the Loo of the Year Awards.

All four outlets of the pub chain in Brighton and Hove have scooped prizes after visits by toilet inspectors.

“We are delighted with the award,” said Matthew Scott, manager of The Post and Telegraph in North Street.

“Staff at the pub ensure the toilets are in first-class condition at all times and it is great that this has been recognised by the inspectors.”

The Bright Helm in West Street and The West Quay in Brighton Marina Village in Brighton as well as The Cliftonville Inn in George Street, Hove, have each been awarded a platinum rating by inspectors.

Toilets at The Post and Telegraph in North Street

Loo of the Year Awards inspectors make unannounced visits to thousands of toilets at sites across the UK, in order to judge them.

All of the toilets are graded silver, gold, platinum or diamond with unacceptable toilets not graded at all.

The toilets are judged against numerous criteria, including decor and maintenance, cleanliness, accessibility, hand washing and drying equipment.

The Loo of the Year Awards 2020 managing director, Mike Bone, said: “The toilets at the four pubs have been designed and fitted out to a very high standard and are both clean and well maintained.

“The pubs richly deserve their platinum awards.”
