Brickwall - Rother

What a gem. While some might class the hotel as dated, I’d class it as home comfort. Clean, fresh comfortable rooms. The staff are 10/10. Had breakfast, a good few pints at the bar and dessert over our stay. As two 28 year olds, it was a welcoming, friendly homely stay, when traveling for work. Can’t wait to be back.

We have dined here several times since moving into the village and I highly recommend it. Excellent, professional staff, lovely, traditional ambience and great food! We look forward to returning many times.

This hotel may not be modern, but it's a great option in the area. Check-in was quick and the staff was very friendly. I accidentally left my key in the room, but the receptionist was very helpful. The room is a bit outdated, but it serves its purpose. It was a pleasant surprise to find biscuits in the room. The restaurant has slightly high prices, but the service is top-notch, as is the breakfast. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

My friend and I made a reservation for a table for two for lunch. The pretentious host made us wait in the corridor before finally showing us to our table. After waiting for 5 minutes, I asked if we could find our own table, but he was quite rude (while he was only chatting with the reception staff). The food was disappointing - the rack of lamb was undercooked, the fat was still white and solid, the roast potatoes were lukewarm and mushy, and the carrots still had skin on them. The white wine we ordered was warm and of low quality. The dining room was dark, dismal, and not a pleasant place to eat. The only positives were that the glass of water was cold and the wait staff were friendly. We will not be returning!

Stayed here for one night on business. Friendly staff on arrival and shown to my room. Room was large with 2 single beds pushed together. Carpet was a bit questionable in terms of cleanliness. Place appeared tired and in need of decorating. Bed was comfortable and nice clean linen. Bathroom was basic at best. I had lunch in the restaurant and was unimpressed. During this time I heard both French and Spanish when staff were communicating with me: I was Senora, then told Bon appetite! Really? How pretentious. The prawn cocktail was watery and tasteless. The salmon I had was cooked ok but celery mornay or bake or whatever it was??? How strange and something I declined, sounded and looked awful. £3 for a tumbler that was only 3/4 filled with cola: I asked for a coke but didn’t expect this to come from a large bottle, daylight robbery. It was not cold and I expected bottled or draught not what I got! Overall very average and I wouldn’t stay here again for sure.
