And what a vieuw! If you’re looking for luxury and large rooms this is not for you. But it is in a building with character and charm. Nice room and bathroom, clean, good bed and pillows and a good breakfast with plenty of choice. Carpets on the floor, not my favorite in any hotel, not hygiënic. For eldery people the roads are steep and slippery (cobblestones). No parking. Rye is truly charming, well worth a visit! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f06eabcb-b31b-4bea-a433-a038b783fff3-1757368338796.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fc396b3e-a752-4ded-b19c-51d8acae947a-1757368337564.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nancy Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### charles Oct 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent location with great rooms and staff.
