Good location with easy parking, Staff were very friendly and helpful. Though cooked breakfast was good, would have appreciated some fruit salad with breakfast rather than a fruit bowl. Beds were comfy and we had a river view (when it was there!).

The hotel is in a good location, with easy walking into the town. The room could use some updating, and the WiFi signal was weak/not working in the room we stayed in (ground floor far at the end of the hallway). However, the staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was really good.

We mainly chose this hotel as it has a free car park on-site. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast menu had a really good choice and was brought promptly. Room was clean and spacious and overlooked the river. We would definitely return and we recommend this hotel.

Very convenient location to rye town. Hotel was clean, staff were great…. Very friendly and helpful. Room was light and airy with comfy twin beds and plenty of tea, coffee, etc. Large on site free parking. Very good breakfast. We didn’t have a drink at the bar so can’t comment but it looked like it’d be well stocked.
