4/10 Fair

Low quality experience for a lot of Money.
Unfortunately the experience wasn’t good. On arrival I was greeted with not being able to find my booking which was a little frustrating, then we went to the room and it was freezing cold and had to wait a hour for it to be comfortable and in the morning there was no hot water so cold showers. We paid over £200 for this.

10/10 Exceptional

The Great Escape provides convenient access to Rye and the surrounding countryside. The rooms are clean and well organised, the bed was nice and comfy. The adjacent pub has a good selection of beers and nice pub food. The staff are friendly and keen to help. Can’t go far wrong.

8/10 Very good

Brilliant staff. Very convenient, everything you need on site. A bus stop 5 minutes walk away that takes you into Rye town centre. Not the plushest of rooms, but definitely good enough

4/10 Fair

In the middle of nowhere, dangerous to drive out onto the road , they need a mirror across the road to make it safe to exit the car park , the rooms were ok but a bit overpriced for what they are , nice that you get a pint of milk in your fridge, unfortunately most days you can’t eat in the pub as they only serve dinner on certain days which is not listed on the site , and to finally ruin my stay they close the pub at 8 pm , this is also not listed

Room was good and clean. Surroundings (outside) badly needed attention.
