Kings Arms Hotel - A Bespoke Hotel

Very good

Liked: Location, clean
Disliked: Way overpriced for what you get, old hotel. But we needed a place for one night, it was only thing we could find, not very soundproof, people whistling in hall at 6 am. Not a lot of parking spots.

Pleasant

Good

Disliked: Personally I'm not a fan of buffet style breakfast

Good

Would not recommend this property

Liked: The view! Beds were comfortable. Reception and dining room staff were polite and friendly
Disliked: We called in before check-in time to book a table for dinner and I was 'greeted' by a surly man who I took to be the Resident Manager who told me without preamble I couldn't book in before 3pm. When I explained I only wanted to book a table he was equally curt and handed my request to a member of staff. The manager ate in the dining room during evening dinner and at breakfast time and not a smile passed his face or a word of warm welcome. I may have been mistaken in his identity but I was not impressed. The food. Paid extra for an evening meal. Main course served up on cold plates and vegetables were barely cooked and luke-warm. One of us had a mandarin cheesecake which cost £7.50 - it looked like something purchased from a cheap supermarket. Mentioned dissatisfaction to staff but no offer of recompense. Breakfast was a free-for-all with not very appetising cooked food. Coffee was good! Shower was within a fixed bath and difficult to get into and out of through lack of space. Toilet paper cheap and not cheerful. Too many residents, not enough staff. The most expensive place we stayed at.

Exceptional

Location is perfect

Liked: Stayed here for two nights, the location is just superb! Right in front of the beach, the view is beyond lovely. The room and furniture were a bit dated but basic facilities were provided. It was not as bad as some reviews have described, at least not for my stay. Breakfast was basic.
Disliked: The bed could be cleaner; it needs some walk to my room, so not very accessible. But it was a very big problem, overall a good value for money.

Good hotel right by the...

Liked: Hotel right by the waterfront, decent sized rooms, great dinner and excellent breakfast.

Would not recommend my stay...

Liked: The location
Disliked: It was dirty, unkempt, curtains hanging off the railings. Curtains didn’t fit the window so couldn’t close them properly. Electricity wires open. Light hanging was falling off the wall.
