A couple of old (sorry ladies, middle-aged) school friends and I decided to have a weekend away from our families for a long overdue get-together. We decided on Rye and chosen the River Haven Hotel, principally because it has family rooms large enough for three adults to share without having to get too up-close-and-personal.We had just two nights there, and...

The Hotel never fails to deliver comfort, good food and a very warm welcome from the genuinely warm and friendly staff. The Manager' a very hard working' Linda,' ( like one of the... More

The reception staff was actually really friendly (so were the party guests !), the hotel was clean, even quiet despite the party going on in restaurant room (our room was on the 1st floor). The hotel is convenient, only 5 minutes... More

First impressions of the hotel were good, there is plenty of free parking and there were attractive tubs of flowers around the entrance. The receptionist was friendly and helpful and the room (number 9 on the ground floor} clean and tidy. I was a bit put off by the fact that the bedding was badly crumpled which made it look... More

I don't think I've ever experienced friendlier, more helpful staff. Attentive but not overbearing. Nothing seems to be too much trouble. And they know how much the... More

We were rather surprised by the few negative comments and we certainly didn't see any 'tired' decor either inside or out. The staff are friendly, welcoming and helpful; our room (no.3) was clean, warm and comfortable with adequate supplies of tea, coffee etc. My wife and I found the breakfast more than enough to set us up for a day's...

My husband and I took our little toddler to stay at this hotel for New Years Eve along with a number of his extended family. We only usually stay in 5 Star accommodation so were a little apprehensive about a 3 Star hotel. We arrived in the afternoon and had drinks in reception. We found our room to be very... More

Stayed in a ground floor room which was clean and comfortable. The shower was very good and there was an ample supply of hot water. Staff were friendly and helpful. Large free car park is a real bonus. 5 minute walk to the centre of Rye. More
