The room was not properly cleaned especially the carpet we found hairs and dirty . Also the bathroom was not particularly cleaned . At the reception a girl that definitely didn’t go extra miles to welcome us said our room was upgraded without extra cost to actually discovered we were placed at the very top floor and without lift it was not ideal to carry our luggage But the most disappointing part it was that my daughter left in the room very expensive make up the morning we left and when we realised straight away we got back to the hotel and there was no sign of our lost property. Waiting to hear from them for a compensation as this is really unacceptable

I have to mention the outdoor decked area & steps at the top end leading from the car park are an absolute death trap when it’s been raining as it was for us, it’s as slippery as a skating ring

I had such a lovely stay that I didn’t want to leave! My room was large and bright, very clean, as was the attached bathroom. Breakfast each day was delicious, I had a great view, and I felt safe and well taken care of. Beautiful medieval streets and boutique shopping are all easily within short walking distance. I would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely loved my stay here. I had a top floor room with windows on each end, which made for a gorgeous view. Watching the sunset from this room will be a memory I will never forget . The room had beautiful bedding and a bath tub which is always a plus. The bed wasnt the most comfortable but it wasnt too much of a problem. I would definitely stay here again if I am lucky enough to come back to Rye!

Alex was a great front man. The breakfast is a little muddled when busy. Could be warmer in communal areas. Room had rather a lot of black mould inside the windows, hard when single glazed. Otherwise room was charming.

You are playing a lottery here with room allocation. Will you get one which has already been refurbished or are you going to get something which was last redecorated in the 1980’s? We had 2 so called deluxe doubles, rooms, 1 and 4 and both were in need of full redecoration with, for example, the curtains falling apart from long use in room 1 and the decor in both tired and dated. On the plus side they were large and the beds comfortable. In the public facing area, the space has already been renovated and it is smart and stylish. The hotel is very well located.

The hotel standard was well maintained, cheerful and helpful staff, breakfast was plentiful, our room was clean and well serviced, our only negative was the car parking, having to use an app, not everyone has a smart phone! Eight pounds a day is too expensive. We would come again.

This was in a very convenient place, had very well equipped and comfortable rooms, and the staff were friendly, kind and helpful. We had an excellent breakfast - there was a good range of food on offer, and we had the best kipper we had ever tasted! We also appreciated the advice to eat at The Lookout's sister hotel, and had a splendid meal there too. Altogether a very good stay, and we would heartily recommend this hotel. S and S, Bromley

A fantastic location with very friendly staff. However the hotel could do with some refurbishment as generally looked a bit tired (stained carpets, dirty walls, cracked mirror).
