The Lookout Rye, hotel in Rye

The Lookout Rye is in the center of the historical town of Rye, high on the East Cliff with views across the river. It has free Wi-Fi and paid parking.

Located on a very good spot. Room is good and clean even though things look kinda old as it is the style of the place. Bed comfy and room not too small. One of our room is on the first floor and probably one of the biggest room but the view is not as expected. Our other room is quite nice, with view of the look out. Our booking come with continental breakfast which is good enough. The staff are kinda stiff then our expectation but it's ok.

Playden Oasts Hotel, hotel in Rye

Offering characterful accommodations centered around 2 East Sussex oast houses, Playden Oasts Hotel is just 1 mile from the center of Rye.

Loved the decor which was in keeping with the hotel. The bed was comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. The towels were large and fluffy, a real treat. We ate dinner at the hotel and enjoyed tasty food, generous portions and our meals were piping hot. Breakfast was equally as delicious, especially the bacon. Our host, Kim was very welcoming.

    A walk around the town of Rye is a must to see all the old buildings and shops. There are quite a number of restaurants in Rye to choose from. Some of the 'owners' or managers need a course in customer service....Called into one to check his menu and when we said we were just looking he was not so helpful after we said we are just looking for a place for tonight.... However, we stopped into a small cafe for lunch and had great potato soup, which was excellent on a cold day.

    A perfect weekend spot.

    A perfect weekend spot. There’s lots to see, but it’s manageable in a weekend, with plenty of time built in to enjoy the culinary delights on offer - there are some very good restaurants and cafes. Rye is very hilly and there are lots of flint, cobbled streets, so those with reduced and/or limited mobility may find it challenging to get around. Many of the buildings are listed and so not always the most accessible - don’t let this put you off, but just be aware.

    Rye is built on a hill so naturally has steep paths and many steps. However the local council try their best to discourage more elderly visitors by having closed most public toilets and arranging car parking so that visitors staying overnight have to be up early in the morning to get to the car parks at the bottom of the hill by 8.00am or risk a substantial fine. In view of this we would avoid staying overnight in the town in future

    We go to Rye a couple of times a year, we either stay at the Mermaid Inn, if they have an offer on. Or The Kings Head. We really like the Kings Head as it is really good value for money & staff are always most polite & friendly. We particularly like Rye for its Character & charm. It is always bustling. A place for a perfect little break.

    A charming town with a bustling vibe, full of independent shops. The restaurants are many and varied. There was plenty to do, even in January, though some attractions, such as the visitor centre was closed (tho online it said it was open). The church and castle are lovely. The church tower has spectacular views all round. Loved it, even in the snow! We were surprised to find a 3 screen cinema, showing films throughout the day and evening - a delight in the bitter cold.

    Beautiful town, If you want to stay in a n original Tudor house with modern facilities for an affordable price, this is it. Parking near, but you can load and unload at the front door. We managed to park on the street every night.

    The hotel is super cute and quaint - just the perfect little place to stay to match the whole vibe of Rye. The rooms are exactly as they appear on the photos. I stayed in crumpet on the top floor which was spacious and clean. The cafe downstairs is lovely, having breakfast included with the room was a particularly nice touch and the breakfast options were impressive! Staff were lovely and I was able to check in slightly earlier which was super handy. Would definitely recommend the hotel to a friend.

    Location: Handy with a car -- about a mile into town. Parking free at the hotel, and not expensive at cattle market lot, near the train station in Rye, and free after 7 PM at most other lots. Great-looking oast towers on the hotel, containing round stone rooms for reception & dining. Generous and tasty Full English Breakfast included. Room and bed were clean & comfortable, but with odd separate shower room. Not far from Great Dixter -- a lovely and unique house, garden, and nursery.

    The hotel is both beautifully designed but not stuffy and has retained the original character of the building. We had a room upstairs on the other side of the courtyard which is a lovely space for a coffee or glass of wine. Comfy bed and very good shower. Excellent breakfast - coffee very good. The hotel is in the heart of Rye and parking nearby was very reasonably priced.

    Large clean flat conveniently located on the high street. Nicely renovated, comfortable, and accommodating all in a wonderful location. Full kitchen facilities, lounge area, and separate bedroom. There was even an iMac to use, which was convenient and not something that was expected. I would love to stay here again upon my next visit to Rye.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel is excellent and there are beautiful views from the front of the hotel. The bed was very comfortable and the room was equipped with a kettle. I was grateful to have both a shower and a bath in my bathroom. The hotel is a short walk from good restaurants, shops, cafes and pubs.

    A lovely stay in a nice hotel. Staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast is a continental buffet for the winter, but a cooked option at another hotel was offered so they're doing their best to cater for everyone's needs. The hotel has it's own car park, which is a real bonus in Rye.

    The Hope Anchor is a well run, comfortable hotel, nicely located in Rye. Parking isn’t always easy, but so far it has worked. Customer service is very good. Also, the bar is very good, having an excellent pint of Harvey’s, in great condition. Big attraction!
