The Old Borough Arms

What a lovely place. We went last year and enjoyed it so much we returned a year later. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and you can't really get a better location in Rye. The cafe has a lot of character and the food is very well sourced and prepared. Very nice! Most importantly, the staff were so friendly and welcoming. 10/10. We never return anywhere but we are already thinking of our 3rd visit.

I had originally booked another hotel in Rye then spotted Old Borough Arms and am so glad I changed my mind. From start to finish our stay there was fantastic - our room was very clean, light and airy with plenty of space and a good sized bathroom. There was a bit of noise from the street below but it didn’t keep us awake. Breakfast each day was delicious, served by Dawn who was bubbly, friendly and helpful. Pluto the dog is a lovely boy! Thanks Ian and team for a lovely few days at Old Borough Arms.

Breakfast - amazingly tasty, freshly cooked and generous portions. Lovely chef. Staff - friendly, helpful and cheerful. Location - handy for everywhere in Rye and close to some lovely shops and pubs. Also great for going birdwatching at Camber and at Rye Harbour Nature Reserve. Rooms - Room 8 is a small double bed room downstairs, with a comfortable mattress, good heating and a good size en-suite with lots of lovely hot water. Plenty of mirrors too for hair styling. WiFi is also very good too. I really enjoyed my stay in Rye and loved the walks and the birdwatching available, exploring Rye and spending too much in the gorgeous quirky independent tearooms and shops. I had a tasty meal in the Ship Inn - very reasonably priced and lovely staff . Haydens do a fabulous chocolate cake.
