Who we are:

The George’s Banqueting operation supports the Ballroom, Long Room and Kitchen Table rooms which can be hired separately or at the same time. We have a dedicated banqueting kitchen in the hotel dedicated to banqueting service, focusing on weddings and private dining. You will be working independently or alongside an experienced group of chefs who will give you support to deliver to the standards expected from our guests.

After a two-year refurbishment, The George in Rye is set to re-establish itself as one of the leading hotel and banqueting venues in the South East. Having set the standard for boutique coaching inns 20 years ago, a new version of this iconic hotel will emerge this Spring from its original founders - come and be part of one of the most anticipated openings this year.

We are located in the heart of the idyllic medieval town of Rye, in between Ashford (Kent) to the east and Hastings to the west – by the sea next to Camber and its white sandy beaches.

The George in Rye is a local family-owned business with strong links to the community. We are committed to sustainability and buying local. Our guest charitable scheme (matched pound for pound by the hotel) raises thousands for good causes.
