Mermaid Inn, hotel in Rye

With Norman cellars dating back to the 12th century and secret passageways in some of its rooms, this inn offers historic accommodation in Rye.

This very old wonderful Inn is at the heart of Rye. All of the staff, reception, porters, waiting/bar staff, cleaners were so polite and professional. Very easy to get lost in the nest of corridors and stairways however the helpful staff are never far away to point you in the right direction. The Mermaid is ideally placed for exploring lovely Rye.

The River Haven Hotel, hotel in Rye

Situated in the historic town of Rye, The River Haven Hotel is on the Strand Quay overlooking the River Tillingham. Rye Rail Station is a leisurely 10-minute walk away.

Incredibly friendly and polite staff. Breakfast was great and well cooked. Room was immaculate and covered everything I needed. Easy to forget when stay in soulless premiers inns etc but it was so refreshing staying somewhere that felt like the staff cared and made you feel so warmly welcom.

    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.

    Wonderfully attentive staff, luxury hotel level breakfast. Our room (we switched as we needed a twin room and this was done super swiftly and politely) was very spacious, clean with brand new bathroom and furnishings. Great selection of teas and coffees in the room. Very comfortable beds. Magnolia House is a very short walk into town and very convenient, and offers free parking- which was a big bonus for us. Exquisite breakfast. Lovely manager/owner. Great choice for Rye. We only stayed for one night but would stay longer next time.

    Great location and views out of windows great . Friendly staff and good breakfast # Best of all we have stayed in just about all the hotels in Rye and this one is as good as the others but less expensive . Only downside is parking situation . Must move car by 9 am off street into paid parking . Thats now £2.50 per day and about 5 minutes walk away so no hardship but if one is disabled or elderly this may be an issue

    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.

    We were provided with a good sized double room which allowed us to stay comfortably with sufficient room for the dog and his bed. The staff were very welcoming and helpful, providing useful tips for eateries in the nearby town. The overall hotel atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. The spa facilities were good, I made use of the pool, steam room and sauna.

    A lovely medieval hotel in the centre of Rye, it really did feel like stepping back in time. Great location, quirky rooms and lovely terrace for a drink. The bar and restaurant team were fantastic and helped with a number of allergy requests really well. We stayed for dinner and the food was delicious.

    Being vey close to the centre of Rye the Hotel was a perfect position for wandering the shops and lanes of beautiful old houses. The hotel is old and a little quirky but beautiful inside and very well decorated. Breakfast had a good selection of food, and the staff were exceptionally helpful.

    Brilliant location only a short walk from the town centre, and a very comfortable place to relax after a day of exploring. But most importantly, superb hosting skills from Sue who gave us all the local insight, and made us extremely excited to enjoy the beautiful town of Rye. Thank you Sue!

    The rooms are really spacious and clean. Position is great if you are with a car as it is really close to Rye, while being in a very quiet area. Spa facilities are good considering the night rate of the hotel.
