Who we are:

At The George in Rye, you will be working alongside an experienced group of managers who will be able to mentor and develop your skills.

After a two-year refurbishment, The George in Rye is set to re-establish itself as one of the leading restaurants and hotels in the South East. Having set the standard for boutique coaching inns 15 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.
