The George in Rye

The George in Rye

10/10 Excellent
"Had an amazing 3 nights at the George Hotel in Rye. The hotel environment made the stay so relaxing . The Grill Restaurant provided delicious dinner with attentive staff as was so with the breakfasts each morning. The reception staff were very helpful making sure that the two rooms booked were right for our family of four.. This was particularly important as my husband has mobility issues relating to Parkinson's. The room was great with step free access from the road. We would certainly use the George again."

"Nice large room. We ate dinner in the restaurant and this was lovely. Breakfast was great too. 2 of our group used the gym and said it was good. We ran out of time to use the pool but it looked very nice. It was in very short walking distance to Next and M&S which was just as well because one of our group had broken their shoes so needed an urgent replacement"

"We had a very enjoyable stay here recently. The house and grounds were beautiful and the bedrooms were spacious and well-equipped. We had breakfast and a really helpful member of staff (Mollie?) reserved a lovely table for us in the conservatory for my mother-in-law's birthday. We unfortunately didn't have time to use the facilities on this trip, but the pool and spa area looked lovely and we hope to return."

The Spa Hotel

The Spa Hotel

8/10 Good
"We really liked the convenience factor for the wedding we were attending in Eridge. The rooms (x3) were basic with a king bed ( a Superking would have fitted) , two old looking arm chairs ( from a care home?) a VERY modern glass desk and modern oak headboard. The paint colours on the walls were nice, but the carpet was a sort of light charcoal (sensible rather than pretty) and the huge Roman blind was a strong cream with two strips of dark brown either side. It was as if three different people had separately decorated the room! Rather odd, we felt. The shower had waves of hotter and colder water, which made for a bit of excitement in the mornings …. Breakfast was very good; they brought me a freshly sliced avocado on toast, rather than risk the ready mixed variety’s strength of chilli."
