What a treasure Rye has with The George. Extremely well located, about a 10 minute walk (albeit some uphill) from the station parking, a lovely old building that's in good condition. We went at low season so Rye was quiet (great for us, albeit some businesses were closed for staff vacations...not a problem), and very walkable. We enjoyed several small pubs which felt very cosy and welcoming in the cooler nights. Strongly recommended.

Old and interesting property with lots of nooks and crannies, very well decorated and appointed. Central location. V friendly staff. Super food. Only small negative is having to park some streets away but that's because it's in the middle of a very beautiful old town with narrow streets.

I had been really looking forward to our stay at The George in Rye and it was a good experience, although not fabulous in anyway, and incredibly over priced. I had thought for the Money there would be fabulous service, wonderful amenities, delicious breakfast etc and a luxe feel in all the communal areas. Everything was fine to good. There were two weddings when we Stayed which made the whole place noisy and chaotic - not as relaxing & romantic as we had hoped! Therefore we spent all of our spare time out of the hotel and did not even eat there. The room was lovely but I expected there to be more in terms of elegant touches and attention to detail. We paid over £300/ night for The George, which is incredibly expensive but I thought we would be getting our monies worth. My partner and I discussed and we felt that £200/ night for the luxe room and breakfast would have been more appropriate.

Our room was very grubby, dirty carpet, a substantial amount of dust had accu lated behind the door, the firedoor mechanism impeded the opening of the wardrobe. The window looked directly into the gentlemans shop opposite if you wanted Privacy the curtains needed closing the whole day. The whole room felt grubby and uncomfortable. We were very disappointed and did not enjoy our.

Loved our stay here, everything was perfect. The Hotel had great history with gorgeous decor. It was decorated with a modern touch with quality furnishings. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were friendly and lovely, especially Madison on reception. Has lovely quirky feel and the bars female toilets decorated in shells is a must to see (shame the males were not as elaborate though) One of the best hotels in Rye.

Lovely welcome from Madison in reception who understands what hospitality should be and tries very hard (and succeeds!) in providing it. Stayed in a junior suite which was clean, comfortable, quiet and perfect for our needs. Will have no hesitation in returning.

So much potential

This beautiful late medieval property has it all - in theory. The bar and restaurant areas are gorgeous with wood burners cosy corners. The staff seemed constantly stressed though, I got twice the wrong breakfast and the room was beyond tiny and tiny with staples like the TV really complicated to use (you need an Apple account). You can't beat the location but would probably look for another abode next time in Rye.
