Excellent stay. Family friendly. Good breakfast.

The hotel, while comfortable & welcoming, appears a bit run down, in need of a freshen up. Also appears to be understaffed.
1-night trip

Lovely hotel and nice big beds, however we were out in a room in the attic which was only accessible by 3 flights of very steep stairs as there is no lift despite the hotel being aware we were traveling with a baby and providing us with a travel cot

8/10

Wonderful sized room, huge bathroom with a his and her sink and fantastic view to look out upon. I think I may have had a room upgrade as it was my wedding day and a lot larger than expected! Thank you to the staff if that was the case. The cooked breakfast was pretty tasty and they had continental yoghurts and fruit beforehand. The decor was a bit tired e.g ripped curtain, carpet staining etc. It was still very nice, but the closer you look the more little details from wear and tear were noticed. I'm very happy to have stayed here, and if the room would have some touch ups and and re-fresh I would rate it a 5/5.

4-night trip

10/10

We had a brilliant stay in the lookout. It is brilliantly located in Rye and we slept wonderfully. The reception and rooms were modern though the hallway is very tired (it looked like these will be renovated soon.) Great value including a good breakfast. My only complaint is that the tiles in the bathroom were a little mouldy.
