Clean and friendly staff lovely fresh cooked break
Excellent location, lots of space by the River, staff couldn't have been more welcoming and efficient. Looks good for the disabled, breakfast good, bar good, all good...!
We mainly chose this hotel as it has a free car park on-site. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast menu had a really good choice and was brought promptly. Room was clean and spacious and overlooked the river. We would definitely return and we recommend this hotel.
Very friendly and helpful staff all round. Nothing was too much trouble

Lovely clean, warm room with comfy bed. Shower a bit outdated but worked well.
Excellent breakfast
Very good value for money
Room was clean, staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, especially as I have food intolerances. Free parking which is rare in Rye. Close to restaurants and pubs in Rye. We had a riverside room which is much quieter than streetside.
Hotel location is perfect next to the rover, hotel staff is welcoming, very good breakfast options, good size cozy rooms. Overall a good budget friendly stay.
Good location to explore Rye and the Nature Reserve.
Room comfortable and very clean.
Breakfast was plentiful
Staff helpful and generally friendly.
Price reasonable and there is parking on site.
