Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Overall - pretty poor.

Overall quite a run down hotel. The bathrooms are in need of updating. Toilet looked like it hadn't seen any bleach in recent times. Gave our friends a room that they then refused as it stunk of smoke, we checked in 20 minutes later then tried to fob us off with the same room rather than freshen it up. Rooms are very rickety, uneven floors - beds are on a slant and lumpy realised by head was lower than my feet. Breakfast was also very slow, they come across as quite under-staffed and in need of investment

Charming old fashioned hotel on the old Amersham high street. Stayed in a heritage room overlooking the main street. A very enjoyable stay for the weekend especially the Sunday market.

Nice old fashioned hotel. Needs a little maintenance (missing toilet seat lid, stained carpets) Staff and breakfast excellent. Good parking but narrow entrance. PROBLEM...booked as fully refundable up to 24 hours prior on hotels.com. However.. hotel charged my card 4 weeks before and informed me I could no longer cancel!!!

Christmas stay

We had a comfortable stay in the junior suite with lots of room. The only niggle I would mention, is there were lots of spider webs in the room.

Ideal location and very comfortable

Lovely old hotel in the centre of Amersham old town. Room was in the annex and very comfortable and warm. Great shower. We picked the hotel as a base for walking and it was an ideal location. Lots of pubs and restaurants on the high street and looked so beautiful with all the Christmas lights and decorations

Lovely hotel in a lovely setting

Newly refurbished and nicely decorated room however, the broken handle on the shower was reported on arrival but it had not been repaired by the time I checked out. The bed was very comfortable and the wifi was good. The shower needed a mat as the floor was a little slippery. On one day my tea/coffee was not replenished. The room was equipped with a Nespresso machine, kettle, hairdryer and iron plus ironing board. Had the shower been fixed and the housekeeping been efficient the rating would have been higher.

Weekend at the Kings Arms Hotel

A lovely hotel wth character. Very comfortable room. Two downsides: the bar is very small and got very busy, and there was quite a wait time to order drinks at times. The other downside is the time to have breakfast.... we arrived at our prebooked time of 9.30 and on both mornings, our breakfast arrived around 10.30 so althought it was a nice breakfast, it would not suit if you are in a rush.
