Me and my husband booked on laterooms so did not pay the full £130 but had a nightmare finding the place and not signposted clearly at all. We found it eventually and the front door was open so anyone of the street could walk in. No staff around and after 4 attempts a member of staff appeared. We were then... more

we have just returned from le chateau japonais and are seriously considering booking again later in the month! while floating in the hot outdoor spa at two in the morning on a cold november night i marvelled at the fact that a couple of reviews i had come across were negative.can only conclude that there is no pleasing some people...... more

When we pulled up outside this hotel I was worried about what I'd booked. It looked nothing like a hotel. No signs up outside - just someones house! We were greeted by a friendly face who called us in and walked us through a dark hallway to our room. The the WOW! factor kicked in.... A lovely presented bed, a... more

Le Chateau Japonais - 5 of us stayed at this guest house on the night of 23rd/24th August 2008 (bank holiday). We had 2 rooms and paid £130 each for which we expected something special. If you are content to spend the night using the water facilities (Japanese loo, jacuzzi and stone pool) all of which are superb, and are... more

When we arrived we found a pleasant and nicely appointed guest house. If you are expecting a 5 star hotel you will be disappointed, this is most definately... more

My husband and I spent two nights at Le Chateau Japonais last December 2007. The hot spa in the Japanese garden makes it a worthwille trip! The wind was blowing but I still went to enjoy the spa, it was wonderful! My back ache was gone! We relaxed there as long as we wanted. In fact, the nice lady told... more

Stayed for two nights in June 2007. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. The room was large and the facilities very good. Fridge in room, coffee making facilities, good TV and satellite, whirlpool bath, excellent and comfortable bed and use of very nice outdoor hot spa....very relaxing. The accomodation was in a very nice quiet residential area but still... more

In general: a great place to stay for a night or so, with features you wouldn't normally get for this sort of price. Close to station, sea and town centre, the place doesn't have an obvious sign, but plenty of parking when we turned up. The person who greeted us was very friendly, showed us how to use all the... more

Le Chateau Japonais, 2 Linton Road Hastings Uk We visited this guest house in April 2006 We are very concerned that anybody should fall into the trap of booking this so called five star guest house. No signage up, no tariff shown in guest house, no fire extinguishers, no fire instructions, no inspection tickets on electrical equipment. Builders on site.... more
