Rebbeca United Kingdom

The hotel is situated in the heart of Battle. The location is superb. Charlie and Katie were amazing hosts. Both they and all their staff made us feel so welcome and looked after. Lovely food and a really comfy room.

Yvonne United Kingdom

We liked that it was a small family run hotel located in the historic high street. The rooms were nicely decorated, clean and comfortable with good showers. The staff were fantastic, so friendly and welcoming and the restaurant food and breakfasts were really good. This was a great place to stay whilst doing the 1066 walk.

Recently refurbished, this Grade II listed hotel is situated in the heart of the small market town of Battle, opposite the historic site of the 1066 Battle of Hastings. There is free Optic WiFi.

The restaurant offers locally sourced produce and local ales. The hotel's garden borders the 1066 walking route

The countryside surrounding Battle is stunning and yields wonderful walks, places to fish and great golf courses.

The coastal town of Hastings is only a short drive away, which has the largest beach launched fishing fleet in England and holds a lovely old world charm.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.5 for a two-person trip.

The Abbey Hotel has been welcoming Booking.com guests since 1 Apr 2010.
