The Old Town Guest House

The stay at Tracey’s guesthouse was absolutely phenomenal. So welcoming and lovely. All started with a very detailed communication beforehand, wanting to make sure I had everything I needed for arrival and access to the place. Very thoughtful. The experience continued with the fresh smell at the entrance and in my room. The room was charming, cozy and had everything it needed: hairdryer, fluffy blankets and soft robe and pillows. I especially loved the view of the beach and funicular. The mattress is sagging a little bit, that would be my only criticism. But highlight was definitely breakfast: you get to choose from a menu of 7 or 8 options and it is all prepared freshly for you. And I really annoyed the lovely little chats at breakfast with Tracey and the other guests. She made us all feel very at home. I would highly recommend staying here! Thanks again for the hospitality!

My boyfriend and I stayed for 3 days and have zero faults! The entire place was incredibly clean and the beds were SO comfortable. On top of that, Tracey was lovely! The breakfasts were all expertly made (I made my way through a couple of them) and the entire stay had a homely feel that didn’t feel overpowering. The room had amenities most hotels don’t provide, including Prime, Disney, Netflix and NowTV logged in on the tv. The venue is bang in the middle of old town and literally a stones throw from the beach. We’re already planning another trip and cannot thank Tracey enough for being such a wonderful host.

Tracey was a brilliant hostess: friendly, helpful and always cheery. The breakfasts were excellent and while the room was somewhat compact, it had everything you need, including a very comfy bed! Stairs were a challenge, especially to one who has dodgy knees! Also, parking is an issue, although there is a dropping off zone. In all, a lovely stay and would return when next in Hastings.

Would highly recommend a stay here. Tracey is so friendly and welcoming and cooked an amazing breakfast! Nothing was too much trouble for her. Our room was perfect, great location just steps away from the seafront and the centre of The Old Town. Rock-a-nore was a few minutes walk. The only negative is there are steep stairs so if you’re not able to manage this you will miss out on the best B&B in Hastings. Room 4 is the best if you have some mobility issues as you only encounter one set of steep stairs (there are stairs leading up to these but they are not steep and very manageable) even with my dodgy knee and hip. Thank you Tracey for a wonderful stay - we will be back!
