Ajinkya, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Excellent breakfast, friendly staff. Two flights of fairly steep stairs, not a problem for us but maybe difficult for some people.

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff. Great location for both village and coast.
Gerald, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms are well-appointed, very clean and have tea and coffee-making facilities. Due to the age of the building it is not air conditioned so can get hot on a warm night, although the hotel supplies fans.

Love The Ship!

Debbie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Flawless. We loved our stay at The Ship Inn and I strongly recommend it for any stay in Rye. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of town. The pub is beautiful and historic and the room itself modern and faultlessly clean. Some little details I really appreciated: tea and coffee and kettle in the room (with oat milk sachets!), a deep bath, tv, desk fan and a very comfy, spacious bed. 10/10

I really enjoyed my stay here - beautiful rooms, a great location and it’s a small detail but I really loved the fact that they had small oat milk options with the tea and coffee in the room. Would definitely stay here again.

Modern and clean rooms. November 2024

Greeted by a very helpful Nicole, who also took dinner order and dealt with dietary requirements. Rooms modern and clean. You have to pay to park but car park is very close. Location very close to the town centre.
