Lovely hotel. Very glad I took their offer to book table for dinner on first night, as we struggled to find somewhere on the 2nd night that had a table. Rye was lovely, suspect we will go back one day and would happily stay at same hotel again. We had great view out to Camber castle and walked there and to great bird hide nearby to it.

Hotel is very jaded and in need of significant refurbishment but that said, it was clean and comfortable. Staff were brilliant and the breakfast, cooked to order was excellent. It’s a very short walk to the centre of Rye and its position gives a great view of the Channel estuary. Good value for money reflected the overall need for modernisation.
