Quite possibly overpriced for the tiny room we were put in? Breakfast would have been nice if we didnt have to wait so long, we had to help ouselves to glasses in the end and when the waitress asked if we would like some more toast we just smiled bemused and wondered where our first lot had gone to! Friendly... more

Our five night stay was wonderful. Ian and Sarah made us feel very welcome from the moment we booked to when we left. The hotel was in a fantastic location and our room was lovely. The great breakfast was enhanced by interesting conversation and helpful suggestions of where to visit next. We hired a tandem from Rye Cycle Hire and... more

We were delighted with our stay here! When we arrived the welcome was lovely. The room was newly refurbished and was better than we expected! The location is perfect as you are just by the tourist information office and the start of the rye town walk. This made planning our visit really easy! I would recommend this as the place... more

Have just returned home from a very Enjoyable Experience at the "Old Borough Arms" in the centre of Rye, with near by parking, this 17th centry building has plenty of character and quirkiness. Ian & Sarah and staff were very helpful and looked after our needs, they were kind enough too booked us a fish restaurant in the town which... more

This is a nice hotel. The location was great, and the owners were very friendly. The hotel provides parking which is an added bonus. The breakfast was served promptly and was very good. The only downside was that the room was a bit on the small side as there were 4 of us in the room. However, for a one... more

We have just spent a very pleasant weekend in Rye. We stayed at The Old Borough Arms which is located in the town centre. We had a very comfortable room which had a very nice four poster bed in it. The linen was new and smelt very fresh. In the morning we had a big full english breakfast which really... more

Stayed there before when it was run by Lynn and Glynn and we were highly impressed. It changed hands in Aug 2007, and regrettably the new proprietors don't seem to know what they are doing! We arrived at reception to find the lady of the house chatting on the phone and she totally ignored us while we waited. The former... more

Stayed here for 2 nights just before Xmas. As we were the only guests in the hotel, we were somewhat mystified as to why we were squeezed into what seemed to be the smallest double room, when all of the larger rooms were empty. After all, it was Christmas, wouldn't have hurt to have given us a better room in... more

We arrived at dusk to the medieval town of Rye, having driven through the autumn coloured country roads. On recommendation from our trusty L.P., we sought out the Old Borough Arms, Glynne and Lynne made our stay in Rye. Glynne was so hospitable, providing us with insider knowledge to this magic town. With his tips, after settling into our cosy... more
