Gezellig hotel, ideaal voor tussenstop! Rye is erg leuk om rond te wandelen. Genoeg te zien en genoeg leuke plekken om e

Lokatie is super en het hotel ademt echt die knusse engelse sfeer uit. Ontbijt is sober, maar je kunt wel eea van het menu bestellen, waar je dan apart voor moet betalen.

Old english Ambiente und young friendly Personal

Wir hatten ein sehr großes Zimmer, viktorianisch eingerichtet, Kingsize-Bett, Couch+Sessel, Balkon. Zimmer war sehr ruhig. Frühstück incl. english breakfast. Vor dem Hotel eine Bar mit angenehmen Sitzplätzen. Hervor zuheben ist das überaus freundliche und jederzeit hilfsbereite Personal.

uns hat alles sehr gut gefallen.

Adresse cosy

Gentillesse. Situation. Atmosphere chaleureuse. Parking. Grande chambre. Literie confortable. Déjeuner continental. Attention supplément pour un full et dans ce cas là le déjeuner est servi au Georges Inn.

Mauvais rapport qualité prix en fonction de la chambre que nous avons eue. La numero 3. 270€ pour une chambre - certes de luxe - mais qui aurait bien besoin d’être rafraîchie. Miroir Sdb cassé. Radiateur Sdb tout rouillé. Plus de joints au sol. Et côte chambre plafond abîmé et moquette flottante a certains endroits. Cela ne m’aurait pas dérangé si le prix avait été adapté en fonction du niveau de la qualité de la chambre plutôt qu’au fait qu’il s’agissait d’un samedi. Néanmoins cela reste une tres belle adresse

Fab place for a grown -up winter weekend in Rye

The breakfast was fantastic; beautiful decor in reception and dining room; great location. Friendly staff; onsite parking; lovely products in the bathroom.

Shower was a bit on the small side and a little tired. But this is splitting hairs as the room was generally great

Great views and lovely breakfast

Beautiful room with several large windows for some lovely views and lots of freebies. Free breakfast buffet was well stocked and our host was kind enough to make us some nice coffees. Would absolutely stay here again!

A comfy bed for the night with a good breakfast but the hotel needed upgrading.

It’s location.

Needed a complete update. The shower was particularly poor and tap was constantly dripping.

I would recommend the Lookout for a good location to discover the beautiful Rye.

Location was pretty good, breakfast very good, bed in superior room very comfortable. Easy parking!

Dirty windows inside, some dust, room not entirely clean, Most other was all ok!

Great hotel in Rye

Excellent value for money, brilliant location, really helpful staff, massive bed. Whilst the room was a little bit dated, as a base for exploring Rye and the surrounding area i couldn't recommend it highly enough

Shower room was small, but fine for my granddaughter and myself

Rye is perfect for a few days holiday. Hotel is in a great location and with parking!

The breakfast was average/disappointing. Our room and facilities was very comfortable and clean. Disappointing no evening meal served on the nights we were staying The staff were very pleasant

The room decoration was a little tired, the balcony was in need of decorating .

nice hotel in a great location and reasonable price

the room was fabulous with a balcony as a bonus. Location was excellent Great car park and a brilliant price

Thought breakfast could have been better - ie help yourself to juice - tea/coffee . Didnt like the fact that there were no side plates for toast. But the cooked breakfast was lovely although the bacon was cooked a bit too much but thats just a personal thing for me.

Great location, worth trying.

Good breakfast, nice quality. Good room, comfy bed. Fantastic location. Easy check in.

Corridors need to be changed to motion sensor lighting and doors need to close quietly to aid sleep. Bathroom claustrophobic. Service at breakfast was patchy.

Great location in a lovely town

Comfy beds and pillows. Right on edge of town. Very easy for walking. Many restaurants and pubs. Parking available. Hotel told us to pop into reception before parking. We pulled up on cobbles outside entrance as instructed and unloaded. Saves carrying luggage up extra flight of stairs from parking lot. We were upgraded because there were rooms. Room was spacious.

Room was a little dated. Balcony, overlooking parking lot, needs to be spruced up with fresh paint, but lovely, sunny area. The driveway into the parking lot was dirt with potholes. Go Slow.

Cosy English hotel with the perfect location!

The room was lovely and cosy as described on the website. We appreciated the quietness of the area and the politeness of the staff, as well as their availability to provide the best service. Food was amazing and we were also given few vegan choices for my partner.

The Wifi reception wasn't great in our room, being at the back of the hotel, but spent more time outside so overall it wasn't a huge issue for us.

Shame for the beautiful Rye

Nothing

Disappointing! The photos on the website don't show the reality! The luxury room for what we paid a serious price was actually a miserable loft. We have never been in such a bad maintained place!

Very good

The room was well worth the price. Our room had a comfy super king bed, chaise longue in the large bay window as well as a sofa, plus all the usual facilities (tea/coffee, TV etc). The bathroom was huge, with 2 sinks, shower and a very large bath. Staff were all super friendly (special mention to the waitress who served our breakfast) & the food itself was lovely. Parking facilities were a bonus, as it's very hard to find places to stay in Rye that have their own car park.

Just a minor point, really, but I always feel a little bit put out when hotels charge extra to use their car. Personally, I would rather this just be built in to the price of the stay. But, as I said, very minor and £5 for overnight parking wasn't unreasonable compared to some places.

Comfortable stay with great staff

The rooms were large and comfortable. The staff were great. The food opportune for breakfast were much better than other places, and tasty.

It could have used a fresh coat of paint, but that was about it.
