The room was lovely and very comfortable. A great sized, comfortable bed with tea/coffee available. The bath was a great added luxury. Kim, our host, was very welcoming, and we had a delicious roast dinner the evening of our stay. Breakfast was great, a fantastic addition to the stay, and again, the ladies looked after us really well. The folder of local information, including walks, was a great help, and we enjoyed a short walk into town.

Nothing the room, stay, and staff were all brilliant.

Unique property. Nice restaurant with great food choice and decent portions. Reasonable pricing too. Hard working staff. Good attention to detail with rooms containing individual bottles of water, tissues, toiletries, tea, coffee, biscuits and kettle. Ironing board, iron and fan. Suggestion: provide the staff with a simple uniform. Black trousers and polo shirt with hotel name would add an additional element to the service.

The website does explain that dogs are welcome in some rooms. Unfortunately they were barking quite a lot which was disturbing other customers.

Playden Oast is an interesting building, and our room was good. The bed was really comfy. We thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal in the restaurant. The staff were friendly and helpful. A relaxing place to stay.

The shower could have been better, easier to manoeuvre (we found it difficult to do owing to positioning on shower slider bar) and a bigger head to allow more water through. Only one juice option at breakfast (same all e days) and despite being summer and lots of local strawberries on sale, there were none available with the fruit options at breakfast either... These were small things that would have made our stay excellent.

Check in was quick and easy. I liked that I was shown to my room. Room was clean and well presented. Plenty of tea & coffee etc. Ability to use a key drop facility on departure was good. Evening meal was fine. Breakfast was ok.

Wasn't a fan of only having a folding screen in the room to enclose the bath/shower and hand basin. Although there was a separate toilet, didn't like the fact that there was no accompanying hand basin. All hand washing had to be done in the washing facilities in the bedroom. Thought breakfast was too limited for the price.

We had a pleasant stay at Playden Oasts House. The hotel is full of character and the location is convenient for visiting the Rye area. We really enjoyed the meals - both breakfast and lunch - and it was great to hang out in the bar area too.

We would have liked to have been able to walk into Rye, but without a footpath all the way (and in light of the wet weather), we decided against trying.

Breakfast was lovely. Location was good, very near to Rye and surrounding amenities. Walks were in information folder although didn’t have time in our short stay to try them out…… next time we will!

The bedroom was a little tired decor wise. There wasn’t much room in the shower which appeared to be in a cupboard! That said, the shower worked well.

Hotel was well positioned for Rye centre Friendly greeting on arrival Room was clean ,well furnished and decent size Good shower although whilst hose was loose at mains did not detract from decent pressure Room was very quiet Good breakfast and pleasant staff in morning

No 'good 'biscuits just the standard custard creams & bourbons Only full milk no semi skinned No decaff tea bags Small issue with cups which was resolved straight away Both toilet and shower room could have benefitted from a shelf or two. Bar was closed on our return at 20:00, bit disappointing.

We were made to feel welcome and felt very comfortable. The room was nice and warm and clean and the bottled water was very welcome. We had a lovely meal and a good breakfast. All the staff were very good. This was the fourth time we have stayed here and will stay again.

Very low pressure for the shower was the only negative point.

Location: Handy with a car -- about a mile into town. Parking free at the hotel, and not expensive at cattle market lot, near the train station in Rye, and free after 7 PM at most other lots. Great-looking oast towers on the hotel, containing round stone rooms for reception & dining. Generous and tasty Full English Breakfast included. Room and bed were clean & comfortable, but with odd separate shower room. Not far from Great Dixter -- a lovely and unique house, garden, and nursery.

It was lovely to stay in the converted oast houses. The restaurant and bar areas were really older worlde and the rooms were quaint. Had all the necessary facilities,staff very friendly. Breakfast was lovely and evening meals available in restaurant. Really enjoyed my stay. 1mile from rye but there was a bus up the hill,easy walk back down.
