Ruby Pub & Hotel

Beautiful room, friendly staff ,very clean

No complaints

The bedroom fan did not work and not a lot of room around the bed

I never used the room too far away and hygiene of pub was very poor, manager was not understanding at all

The first impression was very very poor and they would not let me see the room

Good value. Clean rooms. Good location with bus links. Free parking on street.

Rooms very warm.

Vlak bij waar ik voor mijn werk moest zijn

De luxe kamer is verkeerde naam. Geen luxe. De kamer was slecht, bloedheet en zeer luid door afvoer ventilatoren, dus raam open zetten voor frisse lucht was echt onmogelijk. Verhuurder niet vriendelijk en kreeg met veel tegenzin eindelijk de afstandsbediening van een fan. Rest personeel wel.

This was a stop on the South Downs Way and it meant leaving the path at Ditchling Beacon and walking down through fields and woodlands to the hotel. However It was a pleasant detour and a break from the exposed, windy and rough route of the official path. The hotel adjoins a busy road leading to a modern housing estate and is close to the university. My single room was small but well equipped, spotlessly clean and recently modernised, good bedhead lighting and a nice shower room. The windows are modern and well sealed so I was not bothered by traffic noise. I had the best meal of my trip here- sausages and mash, gravy and mangetout peas- plain and tasty. Breakfast was equally good and the display of vinyl album covers in the dining room was fascinating.

A personal dislike is the single cascade shower heads as was the case here where one has to stand in the cubicle to set the controls. being drenched with freezing cold, then very hot water before finding a suitable setting.

Great for what we needed, location was convenient and able to get a taxi to the town. Helpful information provided on parking/ getting to the hotel. Please music shut off at exactly 11pm (as we needed to be up early!)

Sheets had a stain on and also hair in the bathroom/ shower area so could have been a little cleaner. No arrival instructions received apart from parking as mentioned above
