"great friendly place to stay"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 3, 2013
This hotel is a great bargain, not expensive, quiet and a good location. I will certainly return again.
"Owner is extremely helpful and accommodating"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 3, 2013
Was greeted with a big smile. The owner Andrew was very friendly and helpful in suggesting places to park and things to see and do, even emailed me before the stay just to check if everything is ok. Breakfast was of very decent quality and with great variety, too. The B&B is recently reopened followed by a refurbishment so the rooms are very nice and clean. Only let down was that the walls are a bit thin, as I could hear below snoring and talking in the room below ours, might just be our room though. Overall very pleasant stay, would definitely recommend.

"Good value for short stay"
This hotel mostly caters to domestic travelers arriving by car. I came by train, and wasted some time and effort locating the place because the map on the website is vague. It's definitely a quaint old place, and such places tend to show the wear and tear that you won't find in a Hilton. For a night or two, it does the job; if you want a shiny new hotel […] with no character, go elsewhere and pay a whole lot more. It's a reasonable walk down to the High Street, and I was glad to find that the #344 bus from the train station stops right in front of the hotel, fare: 1.05 pounds. The breakfast was "full English", and was satisfactory. The room had an electric kettle for instant tea/coffee. Yes, there is traffic noise from the road, but I had the same problem at every other hotel I stayed at in England: where there are English roads, there's English traffic noise. The hotel has WiFi (which I didn't use), but has no computer workstation for travelers who don't have a computer with them; however, I was pleased to find that the Rye Public Library right on the High Street will give you a 7-day temporary pass to use their computers for free (my favorite price!), so I was able to check my e-mail there.

"Better to go there by car than walking"
Quite far from the station on foot with a hill to climb, it's best to go there by car. Also, the map doesn't seems accurate either, as it was further than seen on Google Map. The cottages are cute if a bit outdated, but that's part of their charm. The room was clean with a New Age decoration. The staff was friendly, but the check-in and out process […] was not very clear, as we needed to ring the bell several time for someone to come and our host initially asked us for payment even though we booked through Expedia and then needed to check that our payment did indeed go through. But for the price and included breakfast, this was a good choice. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

"The dirtiest hotel room I have ever stayed in"
The room was filthy,the bedding and towels etc were tatty, and everything about the place was tired and run down.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Lost some of those special touches"
I have stayed in this hotel many times and found it fantastic, however this time I found it had lost its special touches and it seemed the owners had no time for their guestsGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Lovely staff, but the room was tired..."
I had a warm welcome from the lady who greeted me and the younger lady who served ne breakfast - they were helpful and polite. The hotel - that is, the room I was in - just needs money spending on it. Tha standard of decor was delapidated, and updating/maintenance was not evident at all. It was a pity, as the location is convenient for Rye town centre, […] the charges reasonable, and the location of the lodge rooms, off the carpark at the rear, kept the road noise down to a minimum.

Quiet and convenient location. Easy parking. Good breakfast. Recommend it for short stay.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"It was ok..."
I'm not a demanding person or picky, but this hotel was not up to my standards. For the price I paid I would expect a least a bath with no human hair on it!!!! The tub had little hairs everywhere and dead insects scattered all over the place as if the dirty old carpet hadn't seem a vacuum cleaner for a long time! Greasy breakfast with no backed beans!! […] A least the beds sheets and towels were clean and staff were friendly. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review

"Für eine Nacht im Sommer akzeptabel."
Das Top O' the Hill liegt ein paar Minuten vom Stadtzentrum von Rye entfernt. An der Sauberkeit der Zimmer kann man arbeiten, die Toilette, das Waschbecken und die Badewanne waren sehr sauber, die Ecken der Zimmer haben es jedoch mal wieder nötig. Übernachtet haben wir im "Chalet", dem Nebengebäude. Die Türen waren verzogen, die Eingangstür wies einige […] Ritzen auf, im Winter würde ich hier auf jeden Fall nicht übernachten wollen. Die Bedienung war sehr freundlich, daran kann man nichts aussetzen, das englische Frühstück auch gut. Als wir dort waren, war leider das Internet ausgefallen, aber für eine Nacht kann man das verschmerzen. Hand- und Badetücher waren begrenzt, einen Fön kann man auf Nachfrage erhalten.

"カモメの天下"
このホテルの位置が分かりにくく探しあてるのに苦労した。宿泊棟はレストランを経営する本館とは離れた裏庭にあり、鍵を渡されて後は没交渉。それだけに気楽だった。なお海峡が近く、カモメやその他の鳥が多く、空中に綿毛のような羽毛が漂い、ドアを空けると部屋に流れ込み、車も糞だらけになった。ホテルのせいではないが当地をおとずれる人は要注意です。ホテルの食事は良かったです。Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Un désastre! En voyant l'état de la "chambre" nous avons fait demi-tour. Pour le prix, c'est un scandale.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"アットホームな雰囲気"
スタッフがとってもフレンドリーで暖かな雰囲気。朝食もとっても美味しかった。 建物が古く部屋も特別にきれいとはいえない。別館が新しそうだったのでそちらは新しくもっと快適なのかなと思った。 タクシーを使えば駅から5分かからないが、中心地からは少し離れている。 車を利用しての旅行者には良いと思う。Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Top O'the Hill à Rye"
version motel, ce qui est assez sympa, et en retrait de la route limitant les bruits. très bon accueil de même que le service de restauration. breakfast et repas de qualité. salle de bain un peu défraîchie et moquette pas très nette.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Top of the Hill: Vétuste et sale"
Accueil gentil et petit déjeuner agréable dans le pub qui est très joli sur les photos. Malheureusement, les chambres sont dans un motel donnant sur le parking à l'arrière et les chambres-je pèse mes mots- sont repoussantes de saleté. Passent encore les taches vielles de dizaines d'années sur la moquette, mais que dire quand les interrupteurs disparaissent […] sous une épaisseur noirâtre et grasse? Que le tartre et l'eau croupie s'accumulent derrière chaque robinet? Nous avons constaté sans surprise au matin que nous avions été piqués par des insectes durant la nuit, avons avalé courageusement notre breakfast sur une table collante ( idem pour les menus gluants) et avons vite déguerpi!

Billig Bed and breakfast, stort rummeligt værelse, godt til prisen. Restauranten lavede dejlig mad, vi spiste der hver aften, og der var et fint udvalg. Rask gåtur ned ad bakke til det vidunderlige centrum af den gamle by Rye, som vi helt sikkert vil til igen.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
