Very enjoyable stay
Well presented, decent sized room overlooking Rye Yacht moorings. Comfortable bed and good range of TV channels. Generous tea / coffee / milk provision in room. Good range of continental and cooked options at breakfast - very tasty. Easy walk into town for a range of restaurants for evening dining. Friendly and helpful staff.

Little place of joy
Warm welcome form friendly helpful staff. A simple but very clean and comfortable room over looking the river. Delicious breakfast and walking distance to centre of Rye. A little place of joy that we will be returning to.

Staff so helpful. When we got separated from our car (long story) the man on duty (owner? member of staff?) went out of his way to offer me a lift so that I could pick up the car.

Good but could be better with some improvements
It was a an average three star hotel which in general was cozy and comfortable, The staff were very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was substantive, and car park was more than adequate. The location was very good, with outside sitting. Majority of the guests staying were elderly, therefore their needs in the bathroom needed to be made adequate. WC were too low and generally needed upgrading with hand rails and mixer taps. In all we were made welcome.

The staff at this hotel were very friendly and helpfull especially the young lady, the hotel is very comfortable and looks like part of it has been updated but the room looked a bit tired alrhough clean, the bathroom was ok but definitely needs updating and had a funny smell to it, also the hot water was very hot, too hot in fact that when my autistic son aged 13 took himself to have a shower he scalded himself on his sholders, its a shame there isnt a onsite restaurant so had to drive every evening to find somewhere to eat as although restaurants are pretty close it was too far to walk for my disabled husband, the breakfasts were great and the staff were very attentive, we had a lovely staybthough and would highly recommend

Good value and brilliant location
Excellent location, close to town. Hotel staff were so lovely and very helpful. Breakfast choice was good and very tasty. Room was lovely with a patio area, table and chairs to relax on. Tea and coffee making facility was very well stocked and there was water too. The cleanliness of the room was ok but noticed things like the top of the headboard was dusty. But overall really good and would stay again.
