The River Haven Hotel ★★★

📍 The River Haven Hotel Quayside, Winchelsea Rd, Rye

"On the river bank, the traffic is very convenient if you drive by yourself, and parking is free. This is really rare in the UK. The service staff is very good, the rooms are very traditional and rustic country hotel layout, with the key to open the door, very old, but the health is quite clean. Breakfast is in the form of ordering, make an appointment to go, according to the portion, we order a traditional English breakfast, bacon toast sausage potatoes roast mushrooms and tomatoes. There are quite a lot of people living, and the skin color is that our husband and wife are the only non-Europeans."

The George in Rye ★★★★
"It's an old house with no elevator, so it's not recommended for travelers with large suitcases. There are only about 20 rooms in total, each with its own characteristics. We stayed in the attic on the top floor, where the bathroom was bigger than the bedroom and had a large bathtub."

The Hope Anchor ★★★
"This is an atmospheric English hotel. The proprietress was welcoming; it was clear she truly loves the place. We stayed in the "Harbour View" room. It was cozy and tastefully decorated in a traditional Victorian English style. Situated on high ground, the hotel offered a stunning view of the surrounding area from our window. There were a few minor flaws in the room, but nothing significant. The breakfast was delicious. Our stay at The Hope Anchor was wonderful. We thank the owner for her hospitality! We would gladly return."
