A sixteenth-century coaching inn thoughtfully renovated and creatively reimagined as a luxurious retreat in the centre of Medieval Rye.
ABOUT US
Whether you’re sipping local sparkling wine in the Dragon Bar, sharing our famous wood-roasted steaks with friends in the George Grill, or taking a cocktail in one of our cosy sitting rooms, unwind and indulge in our wining and dining spaces…
With its abundantly romantic original Georgian ballroom, our historic hotel offers the perfect venue for your wedding day in the heart of rye.
What a year of good cheer it has been! 🥰
We welcomed our fabulous new Head Chef to The Grill... Thank you Oscar for your creativity, passion and leadership - we have just adored eating your food and what a pleasure it is to see so many happy satiated faces in the restaurant.
We also welcomed @verden.world into our bathrooms with the uplifting D’Orangerie range and have never received so many compliments on the fragrance.
Into The Ballroom, we welcomed some truly outstanding guests for talks and events, from the delightful and iconic @dianahenryfood to the breathtaking opera singers of The Royal Opera House.
Jazz at The George returned in the courtyard and Dragon Bar, where we also found many new and exciting seasonal cocktails.
And, we had the best time hosting all the stunning weddings, parties and occasions.
So, now we’re raising a glass to everyone in the neighbourhood; to all of our guests - past, present and those yet to walk through the door - and, of course, to our incredible team who make everything possible.
May 2026 bring more excitement, more rejuvenation, more inspiration.
Happy New Year!
From everyone at The George.

What a joy it’s been to witness all the Christmas parties and get-togethers this year.
We especially loved having these queens of Christmas in for their annual festive bash @cordeliajamesboutiques - our neighbours down the road.
“Laughter, good food, fizz and a huge thank you to Anna and Elton”
It was our pleasure!
Now let the feasting continue!
