Not really any secure car parks in brighton mate, as in patroled etc.
best car park to use would be the one under the thistle hotel as it has doors that go up / come down as you enter to stop people walking into, there is also cctv installed as well so would be as secure as can be.
Spaces are fairly wide so cars not crammed in.
What nite you in brighton?

i live in brighton and up until recently i used to be a cab driver, the best place i think is the underground car park just up the seafront a little by preston st. it's an easy walk to to 'chav' st (west st) lol but to be honest there all the same

or i live in peacehaven so bring em to mine and get a cab instead just remember to leave the keys so i can do a 'top gear' style test drive on em all lmao

ive got a hidden driveway in woodingdean, but on a serious note, parking in west street churchill square 1 is fine if by cctv. there are enough police for it not to be an issue.

I would park in Churchill Square - it's 24hr lit all the time, CCTV and patrolled.

EDIT: Use the one that is UNDER churchill square and is entered off West Street NOT the one entered off by the Grand or round the back of the Odeon.

Other than that, park in Hove in one of the more Suburban road areas - Eaton Road etc and it will be fine.

Avoid central Brighton on-street parking or Madeira Drive.

Park in the Hilton hotel. Don't have to be a resident to park inside. Last time i was stopped over there was an XKR, RS8, and 911x2 and a AMG 63. My poor fiesta looked a little out of place......
