Great location, however some minor issues with our stay. Our room was quite noisy and we could hear other guests from our room at night. Water pressure in the shower was very low and the hair dryer was broken. Wasn’t the worst experience just not worth the money we paid.

Les propriétaires sont adorables et très arrangeants. Initialement nous ne devions rester que 2 nuits dans l'hôtel mais nous avons été si bien que nous sommes restés une 3eme nuit. Nous avons logé dans la suite qui est exceptionnelle. Je recommande vivement. (et les petits déjeuners sont typiques et délicieux!) The owners are so sweet and very accommodating. Initially we had to stay 2 nights in the hotel but we were so comfortable that we stayed a 3rd night. We stayed in the suite which was just perfect. I highly recommend. (and the breakfasts are typical and so delicious!).

Just commenting on the wonderful landlady / owner? Despite her.bar rea being closed she more than happily gave a drink, invited us to sit on the lovely outdoor upstairs terrace. She then even looked up about a bus ride into Winchelsea . Literally could not have been more helpful. I hope you get to read this - thank you so very much!!

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.

This hotel is a gem!! The rooms are beautiful, large and comfortable. The breakfast is superb. And the staff is so friendly, helpful and charming. They also serve lunches, coffees and ice cream in the café downstairs. I recommend their delicious crab sandwiches! I would very much like to visit this hotel again and will recommend it to everyone!

Oh my goodness! If you love scallops May I heartily recommend you head to The Old Borough Arms for a bacon and scallop bap. It totally exceeded my expectations, and I’ll be back for more soon. Plus they are lovely people and in a great location.

I had the pleasure of working here for 5 years. Everyone I worked with was super friendly. The workplace is very supportive, like a family. The owners (Sarah & Ian) are quick to offer support to any of the staff or customers; insuring all needs are met. This beautiful hotel is a lovely place to stay, and a perfect cafe stop for a hot chocolate and homemade scotch egg. This is also the only place my mum will go for her mochas, she says it’s the best coffee in rye! If thinking of staying OR working here, I would highly recommend.

Perfect location in the heart of Rye for exploring the cobbled streets. The Old Borough Arms is a fantastic place to stay with generous rooms and helpful and attentive team. We stayed with our son in mid-January and the room was warm with the most comfortable bed! Will stay again and can't wait to have an ice cream once it warms up a bit.
