The staff were welcoming and the room clean but the room heating was inadequate. The radiator in the bedroom was never more than warm/tepid , the radiator in the showeroom was hotter. I was woken by the cold in the room at 3am of my stay. The corridor between the rooms was also cold.

Easy check in by the friendly staff. The room was compact, a little chilly but fine. The bed was comfy. There was only a trickle of hot water in the sink but the shower worked and was nice and hot. In room shower gels, coffee, biscuits…. Thumbs up. Parking is close and free in the evening until 9am.

No frills but great value
Rooms are above a busy, pub but once the pub closes it’s a very quiet location. Comfortable clean room. Friendly staff. Just a short stroll to the centre of town.

Convenient & reasonable Lewes hotel
Very convenient place to stay should you need to stay over for a visit to Glyndebourne, which is only about 3 miles by road around the hill. I noticed at least 2 other couples did the same. Didn't get to try the food as the chef was away the evening we arrived, but the Harvey's beer was excellent. Only slight niggle was some missing/malfunctioning lightbulbs on the main bedroom light, otherwise the room & ensuite were fine.

Lovely rooms. Small points I had to clean out the coffee maker. A wardrobe would be better than a hanging rail.
