Rye Lodge has been part of the Best Loved portfolio for many years and we have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with the owners and staff. I have stayed many times, and only 2 weeks ago in the very same room that received such criticism in a recent TA review. The standard of cleanliness is second to none, and I have... More

Decided to break our journey in Rye and spent a very comfy night here. The pool was a lovely surprise and we enjoyed cream tea with champagne so much we decided against dinner out. It was a real feast! Very clean fresh room with a lovely view. We will stop off at Rye Lodge on purpose next time we pass... More

My wife and I have just returned from a four day visit to the Rye Lodge. It is our third visit, and it will certainly not be our last. From the moment we signed the visitors book we were made welcome, the staff are exceptional, nothing is too much trouble. Our bedroom was spacious, beautifully furnished, and we were welcomed...

This is a lovely hotel, beautifully decorated, with a charming friendly personnel. The room was the quiestest we have ever slept in! The pool was great after a day visiting. Only criticism was the the bathroom was too small.but this may depend on the type of room you reserve.

The woman on reception (Jane) was far from friendly and we felt as if we were putting her out by staying. The rest of the staff however were very friendly and... More

We recently attended the sabrage evening and had a lovely time. The location of hotel is excellent and we were thankful for this as it rained all weekend. On arrival we had tea but were not offered sandwiches or such. Subsequently someone came in and had this but we only got biscuits in a packet. Bit disappointing. Room clean if... More

The rooms were lovely and clean, the staff were friendly and it is just an overall pleasurable place to stay. The added bonus of a small swimming pool and sauna is great too. I just wish that there was a dinner option available for the evenings. Please keep up the marvellous standards.
