Asylum seekers are believed to be staying in a hotel fit with four-poster beds with entertainment including music lessons.
According to a video posted online, some migrants in the hotel also have access to video games, with two PlayStation 5 consoles seen in one clip.
Aston Knight, who allegedly captured the clips during his stay at the hotel in West Sussex several months ago, claimed there were cigarettes as well as cannabis in one of the rooms.
Piles of trainers could also be seen in some of the rooms, as well as collections of perfume bottles and jewellery.

The video showed a range of food and drink offerings available to residents at meal times.
Staff could be seen serving up food in a dining room, with some options also available buffet-style.
Chips, chicken nuggets, curry, pasta and Halal sausages were said to be among the items on the lunch menu.
A Palestine flag was also spotted hanging on the walls in one of the rooms, while several crushed San Miguel beer cans lay in the bin.
Knight also filmed a clip showing people gathered in a room playing instruments.

In the video, he alleges that residents are visited by external providers who come in and teach music lessons.
While showing clips of a bedroom fit with a four-poster bed, Knight says: "I have been quite surprised at the level of luxury that has been enjoyed by many of the residents.
"When I thought of the term migrant hotel I definitely had a far less luxurious accommodation in my mental image.
"Perhaps what I found more surprising is the level of affluence of some of the residents themselves as well."
