Top Cooden Hotel Reviews

The Grand Hotel Eastbourne

8/10 Good

"Stayed at the Grand many times. This time we felt things weren’t to the usual standard. Close to our room the area was being decorated. There were signs apologising but we did wonder, given that the hotel didn’t appear to be ‘to capacity’ why we couldn’t be in an area not being decorated. We were also never far from the noise of pigeons in our room which wasn’t great. At breakfast, we are usually asked if we want anything over and above the buffet. This time, no one did that or indeed offered us toast. This was odd because again, at no point was there a sense that the hotel was full. When we went to the bar area for a drink there was a delay before anyone asked us what we’d like. At the same time staff were huddled at the bar chatting. All in all, we felt the service wasn’t all it used to be. We hope that next time we stay, service will be the usual level of excellence."

Flackley Ash Country House Hotel

8/10 Good

"Very friendly atmosphere and lovely staff who were happy and willing to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Superior double room was clean and spacious and bathroom was pristine and up to date. It would have been nice to be able to open the fixed net curtains to have a proper view of the garden outside our room but this is a small personal niggle. Breakfast and dinner were both delicious and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Overall, a lovely location for a weekend visiting Rye and its surroundings and I would stay here again."

The Lansdowne, Eastbourne

10/10 Excellent

"Booked a family room and was pleasantly surprised that it was more than spacious enough for all of us, our luggage, and the endless collection of random items children somehow accumulate! The room was spotless, and the staff were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. Breakfast was a big hit with both me and the kids. There was plenty of choice, which meant everyone could find something they liked. One of the best things about staying here was the location. The beach is just a short stroll away, and there's a lovely little green space nearby where my youngest happily practised his football skills. The parking permit was another bonus at just £2.50 per day – very reasonably priced. Overall, a fantastic family-friendly stay with great value, excellent staff, and a location that kept both me and the children happy."

Cavendish Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is old world , but badly needs a bit of loving care , but despite being a Britannia Hotel... it was fairly good. We were eating out , but the restaurant looked very nice. with good value prices. Our 'Seaview room turned out to be a 'Partial View' not Seaview as shown on website which comes at an extra charge of £15. Hotels.com needs to be more careful when advertising rooms... Seaview - to me -does not mean Partial Seaview."

The George in Rye

8/10 Good

"The George, like most properties in Rye is a very old building which whilst adding to its charm also presents the usual issues surrounding layout and maintenance We had room 29 which was a reasonable size however looked tied and was decorated in a Psychedelic Orange patterned wall paper covering all walls and ceiling!! Evidence of mould on window frames however over all the room was clean Like all hotels in Rye the cost of room was higher than your usual hotel stay but that is the price of staying in Rye Food looked good however we ate out as plenty of good quality options close by with greater variety and cheaper prices"

The View Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice room view of seafront. Shame glass of doors pretty dirty and balcony glass. As not a very clear view. Cot supplied for my grandson. Not as described. No bedding. Took 3 goes to get in put in room. Signs of wear and tear in room and bathroom. Room service very good. Parking at front of hotel . Can get permit when u check in. Overall feeling when checking in and out. Not the friendlies. Checking out didn't even give eye contact. Overall was a good night away. Good location. Very quiet room. Not bad for the money"
