We were apprehensive on registration and climbing some rather steep stairs to the 3rd level, over worn carpets, beside cracked walls to arrive at a wonderful, spotless and comfortable room with a perfect bathroom, huge balcony with views over the marshes. Excellent breakfst to order - the only disappointment was "kippers" was just one - but then I am greddy!

This is a great hotel right in the historic center close to shops and very good restaurants. The room was large and clean and comfortable. The staff was helpful. The breakfast was solid. We had some difficulty with the parking app and had to park on the street. Maybe because we have a US phone number the app wouldn’t load. It would be a lot easier if there was another parking system. But other than that, this is a great place to stay.

Very disastisfied about the room and its minimal comfortable and dirty bathroom. Impossible to make the room dark too - clearly not a room to sleep in? Despite being given a late check out on the evening, the manager comes banging at the door in the morning and when told a late check out had been approved, instead of apologising, states “who authorised this?” A poor experience on every level.

I had a lovely one night stay. Staff friendly. Responded promptly to my question before I booked that they could safely store my bicycle. Comfortable room. I booked a cosy room but this was not a small room and had everything I needed. Good Breakfast

The room was a good size and clean/comfortable. Quite a lot of stairs to get to it! Parking - very important in Rye - was easy. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast very good. However the hotel was looking a bit tired - carpets very worn on stairs - and the windows in our room had swolen so wouldnt quite close - not great given we had really strong winds whilst there which were very noisy. But very close to lots of great restaurants.

Felt unsafe as our room was close to the back door where if one broke through the glass panel from the outside one can easily use the inner door handle to come into the building. This is because there is no locking system on the inner aspect of the door and only a locking system on the outside. A few times during my stay i found this back door open and not shut securely so anyone could have come in without a key .This should be investigated as a matter of priority for the safety of your guests.

I really loved my stay at this hotel (great service, nice facilities, delicious and varied breakfast) but the only thing that could be improved was the cleanliness. The hotel room was tidy and clean at surface level but I came across a few surfaces with stains and hairs throughout. Despite this, I will be back as I really enjoyed my stay overall.
