There was a room description error on Expedia's website, which the hotel staff were very quick to resolve at their own expense in a very professional manner. The staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel was clean and rooms were generously sized. Lovely breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

Nice meal shame about the night.

We have been kept awake all night by somebody working above room 2. Either that or they are learning how to break dance. Room fine sleep rubbish. Lovely evening meal but indifferent breakfast. Staff were very friendly.

Room 1 is beautiful

Was a beautiful large room. The bathroom was beautiful to.The best room ive ever stayed in.very clean and a good firm bed.The service was poor.couldnt get a drink at the bar when needed one.doesnt seem to have enough staff.not much to offer at breakfast. No one was offered tea or coffee though i think you would get coffee if u asked for it as there was cups on the table.no staff available except for the chef in the kitchen.our dinner was ok but not great.i asked for the bill and was sent to the bar to pay it.No bar tender available so we decided just to pay the bill in the morning. An hour later we were rudely interrupted while making love in bed.it was one of the staff at the door wanting payment for the dinner.i told her i would pay it in the morning. She said no one would be there to take the payment so i had to pay now. She was right.No one was there in the morning except the chef in the kitchen.Its a beautiful hotel .it just needs more staff to run it. The room we had was 5 star.

Excellent overnight stop on the road.

Over night stop driving from Aldershot to Orkney Islands. I just wanted a reasonable priced simlple hotel fir one night and the Kings Arms was just that very near the motorway. Nice clean room small but not tired with a good tv. I had BnB and the breakfast was very good too. I did not eat supper in the hotel.

Stort flot værelse, nyrenoveret badeværelse, flot. Der manglede en stol ved skrivebordet. Træls at sidde på en skammel hvis man skal arbejde. Kom ikke for sent, køkkenet lukker senest 20:00. Jeg kom for sent og så er der ikke meget at komme efter i byen :-(

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The room I was in was very tired with wallpaper peeling off the walls, rusty and limescaled bathroom and extremely stained carpet. Bedding and towels were clean and the room smelled fresh. If the room was in better repair, I have no doubt the cleaners had done a good job I paid £94 for a standard room and would have expected better for £60/70. It is rare that I would write a bad review as I am pretty tolerant but when I asked about moving rooms, I was made to feel like I inconvenienced them and also was not able to move into the "done up" rooms due to them not being dog friendly. I did not eat breakfast here so cannot comment on the food.
