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.

No free parking or parking allowed anywhere in old town, had to use pay parking a 10 min walk away, which we were not aware of when booking. Bedroom was small, ensuite decent. The included breakfast was excellent. Host was very good.

Exceptional value for price, amazing choice for breakfast & everything very clean. Lots of eating places close by. I was aware when booking that there were stairs & although I coped ok, I would advise that for anyone disabled, even with a walking stick, that the staircase would be impossible. Otherwise a lovely stay & lovely manager.

would stay again - great breakfast, friendly host

Tracy was very friendly and helpful. It was nice of her to honour our booking even though the website should not have allowed us to book for only a single night. The breakfast was excellent. The rooms look much nicer in person than in the photos. Very happy with our experience - would stay again

Old Town Love

The Old Town Guess House is a Fabulous place to stay. As the name suggests its in Hastings Old Town. We had a sea view ensuite room on the top floor which was absolutely lovely. Tracey the owner is a true star and cooks up a fantastic English breakfast with home mage rosti which is to die for... Will stay again and highly recommend. Not for those that cant do stairs though!

Tracey is a lovely host very friendly and readily available if needed. Our room was small but comfy, with a fan. Everything was clean and homely. Breakfast was lovely . Had a fantastic view of cable car from our bathroom. Would defiantly stay again but the stairs were too challenging. But would highly recommend.
