The River Haven is in a great position by the river, and a short walk to the beautiful historical area of Rye. There is plenty of parking. The staff are very friendly, and breakfast is excellent, with plenty of choice.

About 5 minutes walk from Rye old town, markets, shops and restaurants. Hotel, although a little jaded round the edges decoration wise, was lovely and clean and comfortable. Bedrooms were a good size, comfortable beds and pillows and bathrooms very clean. All public areas were clean and tidy. Staff were very pleasant and couldn't do enough for you. Good bar with an area outside with seating overlooking the river. And, breakfast was wonderful and many options. Would stay here again if down in Rye overnight.

Rye birthday treat

Our room was up in the eaves with 1 small velux window and no window in the bathroom and it was 28 degs. We had to keep our door open to the corridor and there was a fire exit door open down the corridor we got a through draft but obviously that wasn't private having our door open. You had 1 person on reception and after waiting for someone to come to the bar after 10 mins I went to the reception and the lady said oh that's me , I'm the only one here and doing the reception and bar . The breakfast table was very limited , cooked breakfast ok but no croissants etc just toast, cereal and apples and bananas.
