Having been to Hastings alot and tried out a few of the bed and breakfast guest houses and hotels, my wife and I (well, my wife actually) decided to return to Hastings for the Jack in the Green festival which we discovered last year. We are always last minute planners and our regular haunts were already fully booked. And so... more

We had to find a hotel at very short notice and telephoned at midnight the night before our stay and the member of staff could not have been more helpful. We stayed in the family suite at the back of the hotel and found it to be clean, spacious and very comfortable. The family that run the hotel run a... more

Stayed at this hotel many years ago and l have to say the new owners have done it proud. I had the sea view room on the first floor, bedroom had been recently redecorated and l have to say a very welcoming room. Used room service which was great, reception couldn't do enough for you. Would def stay here again.... more

Booked last minute as a stressbuster weekend. From the outside it looked a bit ordinary but once inside it was obviously anything but ordinary. The staff were very friendly but not stuffy, even taking us up to our room and explaining a bit about the hotel. The room we had booked was beautifully decorated to a high standard and was... more

Stayed here for one night on business. I selected this hotel as to be honest, Hastings doesn't have much choice in accommodation. I arrived fairly late in the evening, but the hotel is very easy to find and in a great position. It's not that attractive from the outside, but I forgot this quickly as the welcome I got from... more

Although we were pleased with the above, the most important thing about staying at any hotel is that you get a good nights sleep. First and fore most your guests will be happy if they get a... more

My wife and I stayed here on a Saturday night with two friends after our trip to Paris was cancelled because of the fire in the Eurotunnel. We loved the hotel and the Old Town in Hastings. The reception staff were friendly and extremely helpful. The food was good and well presented. The bar and cafe staff were also very... more

Any small hotel that prominently advertises real ales and dog friendly is almost invariably an OK place to stay. Real ales take a lot of looking after and dogs give chambermaids extra work so it's a sign of a proprietor who has a passion for his business as opposed to simply wanting to make money from you. The location is... more

The White Rock was in the midst of extensive redecoration during our stay but this was explained to us in great detail by the friendly receptionist and offered to show us the room and the work being carried out before parting with our money, which was a rarity and very fair. The room was spacious and immaculate. Furnishings and pictures,... more
