This hideaway is located in the center of Rye and offers well-designed rooms, local wines and a restaurant menu infused with Mediterranean zest.

The breakfast was very good , my only small point was that my poached egg was hard boiled . Avery small disappointment so not really worth mentioning . Great atmosphere and the property is presented very well .

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 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.

    Rye is a gorgeous town - full of cobbled streets and beamed houses. The St Mary's Church at the centre is beautiful and worth a visit - walk up to the top of the tower too for great views! Lots of nice shops and eateries.

    The cottage is beautiful, cosy and full of character. We went during a cold weekend in December and it was toasty warm. The room was even better than we expected: the bed super comfy, the shower was great, and the whole room was full of lovely little touches like very appreciated biscuits! Brenda did so much to make our stay comfortable, we really appreciated her setting up the table for takeaway fish and chips for dinner. A perfect location for a weekend in Rye, couldn't recommend it enough!

    Friendliness of the staff. This is the 4th or 5th time I've stayed in this hotel and I've always found the staff very friendly. It's nice to have friendly staff when you check in, return late at night, and at breakfast time. It really makes a difference. It's clean. The bath towels are of a good size and good quality (not a given). The hotel has a car park which is one of the key factors for choosing this accommodation in Rye.

    Lovely spacious room - we were given a disabled room. Some noise from the street but nothing too bad - we wore hearing aids. Lovely ambience and beautiful courtyard. Breakfast was amazing. A particular mention to Anna at breakfast - welcomed by a lovely smile and she was so happy always makes everybody else happy. Hotel very clean and very central - the George is the hub of Rye.

    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.
