The Regent, Rye

Very clean hotel close to the station. Friendly staff too.

Hubby and I chose The Regent after reading the reviews. The motel is only a few minutes walk from Rye station and in the centre of town. We stayed in family room number 5 for one night as it was the only room available on our chosen date. The room and bathroom were very clean but the TV remote control was filthy as was the kettle - it didn’t help that it also had someone’s hair attached to it. The dressing gowns were a nice touch and the towels were lovely and soft. There was an ‘honesty box’ in the room containing water, canned drinks, chocolate, peanuts and crisps. If you don’t leave the correct payment the notice says they’ll deduct the payment for goods taken from the card you used to book the room with, plus they’ll take an additional £5 admin fee. We came down to the bar at 6.10pm and were greeted warmly. I noticed a sign on the board saying happy hour was between 5.00pm and 6.00pm. It would have been nice to have been given this information when we checked in. The Regent does not serve breakfast and the local cafes don’t open until 9.00am or 9.30am which is a shame as we’re early rises. All in all it wasn’t a bad stay.

Very pleasant stay.The room was beautifully designed and immaculate.A bit pricey though compared to others offering Breakfast.Will stay again however.

Brilliant location, clean and great facilities. My only grip was a firm mattress but that’s personal preference.

Lovely little, unassuming from the front, motel, 5 mins from the cobbled old town. Lovely room with a gorgeous shower. Great little bar right underneath. Very friendly staff. Rey is very pretty and there's loads to do around and about. Had a lovely stay!

Great, central location, spotlessly clean, super comfy bed & good value. Lots of lovely eateries in immediate vicinity so don’t be put off by no breakfast provision. We stayed in the “Beach” super king room at the back of the property so very peaceful. Friendly welcome & easy check in/out.

Had a lovely stay at The Regent. Would recommend checking a room that was back facing. Staff friendly, very helpful and informative. A beverage a Stephens Bar is a must. Entrance around the back, no food on site plenty of food options locally. Hot showers

We stayed here for 1 night on 25/2/23 as a couple. We were greeted by 2 staff, a male and a female, both were superb hosts. The room was called Beach, it smelt fabulous and was spotlessly clean, light and airy, a bit like staying with friends in many ways, bigger and brighter than your average hotel room, and all the better for it. Limited car parking at the rear is a real bonus, and inexpensive. There is a bar, but no food is served, and it is not always staffed, although there are contact numbers on reception should you need anyone. Breakfast can be found at many cafes nearby, and the Regent makes a great base to explore Rye, we will return.

Great hotel, very clean and comfortable. However the rooms are not sound proofed, and the room doors are heavy and noisy. The bathroom door really stuck. If they could sort out the doors I’d give 5 stars, but until then don’t expect a lie-in!
