The hosts were really kind and helpful during our stay. When we arrived we were offered drinks and sat by the fireplace, that definitely win me over. The room was massive, very clean and nice decorated. We had biscuits, tea and coffee in the room. We done a massage in the treatment rooms, must say that was magic, they done a really great job and I want to go back for sure. The breakfast was included and was divine, several options and really good ones. My partner wasn't feeling so well and they offered us an extra night on the house, this was very kind. If you are looking for a nice place to stay with a treatment room, this is the place.

I couldn't fault anything. This have met my expectation's.

Breakfast: A very good full English. Comfy bed. Lovely view of the garden. Parking for us didn't matter we parked by the sea front. We had booked a show at the 'Stables Theatre' and the Old Rectory is opposite the venue so splendid in every respect. Also close to the Old Town. We have booked another show, in April, and will stay in 'The Old Rectory'

There was nothing that could have improved the parking, as there wasn't any extra space available to use for parking. There was space at The Old Rectory for about 3 or 4 cars.There are a number of car parks close to the Hotel. It can get extremely busy in Hastings so parking needs to be thought out in high season.

This is our second stay at The Old Rectory and it didn't disappoint. We had a warm welcome from Natalie who even remembered us from our last visit about 18months ago, the owner Lionel carried our bags to our room and was very friendly. We stayed in Croft, a lovely peaceful double with ensuit shower at the back of the building with a beautiful view over the garden and next door church. The bed is super comfy and the furnishings are like a little boutique hotel. The breakfast is absolutely delicious and served till 10am and the honesty bar in the chic lounge area is a really nice touch. It's just a few mins stroll from the Old Town with its quirky buildings, antique/flea shops and excellent pubs. We loved our stay and would definitely return!

Nothing!

Everything about the Old Rectory is fantastic. The property is beautiful as are the gardens. Breakfast was a real highlight. The staff were warm and welcoming. All the little touches are thought through and add that extra luxury feel while also being like a home away from home.

The stay was fantastic and I would return in a heart beat. The only thing that would have made it even better would have been a full length mirror in my room as I was travelling alone. However that is a minor thing and there was a mirror downstairs.

Magnificent garden, and the opportunity to enjoy it, including consuming teas/coffee in the garden. Parking at the property. In the room: large bed, quality bed linen, spaciousness of the room, good shower. Simple but quality well executed breakfast with local produce, tasty bread and jams. Members of staff are very pleasant, attentive and caring.

Use of plastic bags in the bins, sugar cubes all packed in plastic. Breakfast is slightly scarce, for instance no fresh fruits. Lacking some extras for a boutique establishment. The decorating of the room- missing some details, could have been cosier. The bed needs headboard rather than pillows rubbing against the wall.

Lovely quirky deco throughout. Excellent breakfasts - local fresh ingredients. Very friendly staff. Beautiful garden (sadly, the weather wasn't such that we could enjoy it). Freeview TV had catch-up apps which was very useful after a hard day's sight-seeing.

It a very old building (listed, I am sure), so the floors are a little uneven and slightly sloping in places - care is needed especially if unsteady on your pins! We had a step down to the bathroom, which could have been a problem at night. The excellent breakfasts are also very large! These are not criticisms but just things guests should be aware of.

Exceptionally comfortable large bed, beautiful linen. The breakfast was outstanding and generous. The home smoked bacon and salmon were stand outs. Well located near the historic old town. Prior to arrival we were contacted and advised that there were building renovations underway - this was appreciated and in practice had no negative impact on the stay.

There were building renovations unwary at the time of our visit however we were warned prior to arrival and in fact they had no impact (other than visual) on our stay.

It was a fantastic experience the staff were very nice and welcoming. The house was perfect and stunning very well presented and the garden out the front and especially out the back was beautiful and how I envisioned a typical English garden to be.

A lift would of been good as we were travelling with 2 big suitcases but the staff were very helpful with that. I understand the place being a heritage building it would of spoilt the appeal of the property.

Everything was wonderful. Lovely building, beautifully and tastefully refurbished, with a gorgeous garden. Set on a historic street leading down to the sea and close by an historic church of some significance. Warm welcoming atmosphere with lovely staff - delicious fresh breakfasts. A treasure of a place.
