We first stayed at The Old Post Office Guest House in 2009 and were warmly welcomed by Margaret; we decided to have a weekend break with friends this year (2013) and booked two rooms - efficient booking, excellent communication regarding arrival, both lovely rooms and the same warm welcome from Margaret. We enjoyed a wonderfully sunny weekend - the Old... More

We stumbled on this guest house purely by chance and what a find! With friends, we made a last minute decision to stay overnight in Hythe. We needed 2 rooms just for one night. Margaret opened the door to us and welcomed us in without any fuss. We had 2 lovely warm, clean and comfortable rooms with fab bathrooms; one... More

An excellent location at the start of the High Street, a warm welcome, a very comfortable room and some useful local knowledge offered. Close to a good selection of evening dining options. Being able to park so close to the property is a bonus. What more could you ask for ??

We had a wonderful three night stay in the large top floor room of this very well run guesthouse. The fridge and microwave located just outside our room was so very handy and the room itself had a great view of the High Street. Hythe is a lovely little town with a long High Street full of individual shops and... More

My stay at the Malt Guesthouse was absolutely wonderful. It was just a one-night stay as my partner and I had decided to to stay out somewhere for our anniversary. When we arrived we greeted with a smiling face and a very warm welcome, as though having us stay there was the most wonderful thing in the world. We were... More

The Malt Guest House Now re.named The Old Post Office guest house has been trading since 2003 and although Margaret has had to change the name she wants to let everybody know she will still be offering the same personnel and friendly service as always. Thank you for all your kind comments More

From booking the break to leaving things were easy due to Margaret the owner. A lovely lady who could not be more helpful. We stayed in the standard double room which was large and very clean as was the ensuite bathroom. There was a fridge and a microwave(the fridge had fresh milk in it) plenty of storage space. I had...

This is a well-positioned B&B right next to Hythe High Street and within easy walking distance of at least two supermarkets, the sea and miniature railway. Margaret is extremely well-organised lady, providing written confirmation of our booking and phone call on the day before travelling to confirm arrival times and parking arrangements. As well as being on hand to provide... More

Booked the Malt Guest House as my partner and I are getting married close by next year, and wanted a base to stay at whilst talking to suppliers. Margaret was very welcoming, and the room (in the loft) lived up to other reviewers comments: clean, tidy, functional, a proper, working shower (with very hot water if you wanted it!), lovely...

it may only be small, but the Malt Guesthouse cannot be faulted. From the original call to Margaret, the subsequent confirmation letter and to the actual stay, everything was perfect. Our double room was spotless - extra real milk in the fridge, big windows which gave lots of light and fresh air. Secure, free parking was a real bonus. A... More
