Margaret, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely family run hotel. Roomy comfortable bedrooms. Very good location friendly welcoming staff
Anne, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Ok as a base for a single.

The single room (9) was a little small but ok to use as a base. Could do with a little tlc to be honest. If you are a late riser, you may get some noise from the street right next to the bed.

Kyle, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

This is a cute place, in the middle of Rye, staff were nice, bed was comfortable, but there was a strong damp smell in the hallway and sewage smell in our toilet. The shower tiles were mouldy in the grout and the shower drain full of hair and soap scum.

Cosy B&B with friendly and welcoming staff

Great B&B with a nice location in the middle of Rye. Nice restaurants within walking distance and easy to find a parking place even if B&B does not offer such. Room was a bit tiny but nicely decorated and with comfortable beds. Breakfast was very nice and staff was very friendly.

Had a really lovely stay at The Old Borough Arms. Lovely hosts who were really welcoming. Made us a great breakfast that set us up for a days wondering around the town and area. Room was very comfortable, warm and well equipped.

Weekend away in lovely Rye

Our stay in Rye was so enjoyable. We felt very welcomed. The hosts were helpful & accomodating (allowing us to check in early). The rooms were clean and comfortable, the restaurant serves delicious food, and the accommodation is centrally located in beautiful corner of Rye. Highly recommended!

The staff are amazing. there was a mix up with the booking from Expedia and the staff fixed the problem which ended up with us getting an upgrade. This was fantastic. The accomodation is well located, clean and serive is super friendly. Highly recommended

Restful, comfortable base to explore from

Owner was very warm and friendly- very enthusiastic welcome and looked after us very well indeed. Breakfast was mega and so good- didn't need lunch! The bed was one of the best ever and very difficult to get out of, even for breakfast. If we had a small criticism it would that the room could do with a lick of paint and some of the equipment needs updating.
Sheila, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Friendliest host and comfiest beds!

Sarah is an incredible host! She was accommodating for our evening check in and helped arrange babysitting. Traveling with two toddlers isn't easy, but she was so helpful and made us feel right at home. I'll miss their comfortable bed and luxurious bedding. The kids loved bubble baths in the tub. The Tilling Suite was perfect for our family of 4 and a friend who joined.
Faith, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Really lovely

We had a pleasant stay. The room was very nice and everyone who works there is really lovely and helpful. Unfortunately, the room where we stayed was right next to the front door and suffered from lots of noise. The guests coming in and out were banging the stubborn door until late at night and street noise was also loud. I can imagine not all rooms have this issue, so I’d recommend Old Borough Arms, but maybe not room 1.
1-night trip

6/10 Good

Single gazed windows suffer from lots of internal condensation during outer cool days. Lower half of the windows are covered in dense frosting film preventing any view through them. The noise from the light traffic can be heard inside. Water flushing/shower and guest noise from other rooms does enter the room on the middle of the three floors.
