Very good

The hotel was awful. Everything was old dusty and tatty. Was like some out of the 70’s. I was charged a lot for the room and given the amount this is the worst hotel experience I have had. Mouldy smell, barely there shower. Just terrible. Avoid.
Lovely place to stay if you want something different, very oldie worldie , bar and restaurant quaint and cosy.
Had a really delicious and well presented evening meal.
Really lovely stay in this quiet little Oast House. We stayed in a round room, beautifully decorated with ensuite shower room. Tea and coffee and biscuits, TV in room. Plenty of drawers and cupboard space for clothes. Room clean and tidy.
Breakfast was lovely, and everyone was so friendly. We also had an excellent roast dinner on the Sunday. Just a short walk into Rye, which was a bonus. Would totally recommend it, and we hope to stay there again.

Weekday stay.
Very friendly welcome by Kim and all the staff. Food was excellent, but the bathroom needed updating. The shower water pressure was bad and shower head needed replacing. House keeping only cleaned our cups and did not make up the room.
Seem to have done this before. Friendly staff good room in the oast not too keen on the bath in the bedroom, difficult to get in and out needs hand rail also needs a towel rail as there is no where to dry towels
All the staff were friendly, helpful and clearly keen to ensure we enjoyed our stay.
We thought the cooked breakfast was very good (non-greasy) and ample for our needs, We also ate in the Restaurant on the three evenings of our stay and again enjoyed the choice of dinner selected from both the standard and specials menus available - steak pie and liver & bacon recommended!
We stayed in Room 4, one of the round Oust House rooms, which was delightfully quirky with a matching round bed. It was clean with rustic furnishings in keeping with the accommodation. The shower was not high pressure but perfectly adequate for our needs. Due to staff illness our room was not serviced on day 3 but fresh towels were supplied by Andy so not really a major issue.
Given the time of year occupancy levels were extremely low so understandably the room heating was only turned on when we arrived. But, given the nature of the building, the room felt a little damp and subsequently suffered from high levels of condensation throughout our stay. Doubt if this would be a problem in other rooms not forming part of the Oust towers or during warmer times.
This is a small Hotel and never the less well worth a visit,
We stayed at The Playden Oast in for one night during our road trip to Kent.
We payed a little extra and stayed in one of the Oast Towers.
As expected the room way round, the bed matched the room.
All facilities where very clean and the free standing bath was an unexpected bonus.
Car parking and wi-fi where good and we enjoyed a good meal in the evening.
Recommended if you are looking for something different.

Liked: Cleanliness
There was a leak from the toilet waste pipe which was leaving a puddle under the basin in the bathroom. Unfortunately there appeared to be no-one on duty to report this to when I left.
We enjoyed our stay at Playden Oasts Inn. The room was clean and had everything we needed. Breakfasts were good. An added bonus is the hotel is dog friendly and we had a room with a little private garden and there was a separate restaurant that was dog friendly for us to have breakfast and an evening meal. Would recommend.
We stayed for 2 nights. The first night we had to endure the neighbourhood karaoke party (no fault of the hotel) the second night was a windy one & it was difficult to sleep from the incessant rumblings from the loft which I assume were the old cowl workings. Our room was quirky but the free standing bath/shower was uncomfortable to use, bathing became a chore. The worst aspect was the stingy breakfast, one egg one rasher of bacon one slice of toast.
all in all a disappointing experience.
