This very old wonderful Inn is at the heart of Rye. All of the staff, reception, porters, waiting/bar staff, cleaners were so polite and professional.
Very easy to get lost in the nest of corridors and stairways however the helpful staff are never far away to point you in the right direction.
The Mermaid is ideally placed for exploring lovely Rye.
The sand between your toes. Sky and beach as far as your eyes can see. Wonderful food made with love. Deeply comfortable beds in beautifully thought out bedrooms. Daily yoga and wellness classes.

A walk around the town of Rye is a must to see all the old buildings and shops.
There are quite a number of restaurants in Rye to choose from. Some of the 'owners' or managers need a course in customer service....Called into one to check his menu and when we said we were just looking he was not so helpful after we said we are just looking for a place for tonight....
However, we stopped into a small cafe for lunch and had great potato soup, which was excellent on a cold day.

A perfect weekend spot.
A perfect weekend spot. There’s lots to see, but it’s manageable in a weekend, with plenty of time built in to enjoy the culinary delights on offer - there are some very good restaurants and cafes. Rye is very hilly and there are lots of flint, cobbled streets, so those with reduced and/or limited mobility may find it challenging to get around. Many of the buildings are listed and so not always the most accessible - don’t let this put you off, but just be aware.

Rye is built on a hill so naturally has steep paths and many steps. However the local council try their best to discourage more elderly visitors by having closed most public toilets and arranging car parking so that visitors staying overnight have to be up early in the morning to get to the car parks at the bottom of the hill by 8.00am or risk a substantial fine. In view of this we would avoid staying overnight in the town in future

We go to Rye a couple of times a year, we either stay at the Mermaid Inn, if they have an offer on. Or The Kings Head. We really like the Kings Head as it is really good value for money & staff are always most polite & friendly. We particularly like Rye for its Character & charm. It is always bustling.
A place for a perfect little break.

A charming town with a bustling vibe, full of independent shops. The restaurants are many and varied. There was plenty to do, even in January, though some attractions, such as the visitor centre was closed (tho online it said it was open). The church and castle are lovely. The church tower has spectacular views all round. Loved it, even in the snow! We were surprised to find a 3 screen cinema, showing films throughout the day and evening - a delight in the bitter cold.

Beautiful town, If you want to stay in a n original Tudor house with modern facilities for an affordable price, this is it.
Parking near, but you can load and unload at the front door. We managed to park on the street every night.
The hotel is super cute and quaint - just the perfect little place to stay to match the whole vibe of Rye. The rooms are exactly as they appear on the photos. I stayed in crumpet on the top floor which was spacious and clean. The cafe downstairs is lovely, having breakfast included with the room was a particularly nice touch and the breakfast options were impressive! Staff were lovely and I was able to check in slightly earlier which was super handy. Would definitely recommend the hotel to a friend.
Location was brilliant, we will definitely be staying here on our next visit to Rye. Our hosts went above and beyond to provide for us, they were so helpful with recommendations of places to visit in Rye. Breakfast was so lovely every morning, great selection of dishes, all homemade and their attention to detail was perfect. So kind and thoughtful, especially for my partner who was coeliac, they happily catered for him. Can’t wait to come back!
Excellently appointed room. We had the silver room with a really nice bathroom. Good view as well. Good selection for Tea coffee and free cookies in the room plus Complimentary tea n cake during the day.
Breakfast was gourmet level - served us scallops eggs Benedict!
Staff was very warm welcoming and super helpful.
Location was ideal to explore rye town.
The Hope Anchor is a very charming Hotel in a historic building. Our room had a great size and was very well-equipped. The room was so quiet we felt like we were the only guests in Rye. The breakfast had a wide selection and was good. Due to the historic location, parking at the site is not possible but the car park in the town centre is very affordable.
This is a beautiful pub/restaurant/hotel, steeped in history. Well kept, very clean and an ideal location for exploring the historic town of Rye. The room we had was well equipped with all the expected amenities but a little bit on the small side especially for longer stays. The staff were polite and attentive to our needs. Would definitely stay again.
Loved the decor which was in keeping with the hotel. The bed was comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. The towels were large and fluffy, a real treat.
We ate dinner at the hotel and enjoyed tasty food, generous portions and our meals were piping hot. Breakfast was equally as delicious, especially the bacon.
Our host, Kim was very welcoming.
Very good food, extremely friendly and helpful staff. Historic Grade 2 Listed Property with all the character in a great location and within easy walking distance to the historic Rye town centre. Very attractive period properties adjacent to the hotel.
The hotel is in an excellent location right on the High St. Rye is quite small so it was easy to see everything we planned to see. The hotel room was clean, beautifully decorated and very quiet. The breakfast was plentiful with lots of choice.
Excellent location, just a couple of minutes walk from town but also with easy free parking which is rare in a small place like Rye. Comfortable, cosy room and excellent breakfast with a number of options and flexible timings.
Great location in the centre of Rye. Lovely hotel. Friendly staff and their own car park. Our room had a lovely terrace overlooking the hills and sea - great surprise. And most importantly, a really good breakfast!
Lovely setting, really friendly staff and beautiful and comfortable dining area / bar. The option to have a cooked breakfast at the sister hotel was also lovely and only a couple of minutes walk.
Staff very helpful and pleasant and engaging therefore my friend and I felt very relaxed during our stay. Plenty of breakfast options with fresh ingredients. Excellent views from the hotel
Very well located hotel with parking just a short walk into the town centre. The Rye Harbour Nature Reserve is about a mile away.
Comfortable room with river view, good space.
