we stayed two nights with our dog. Room was ok and the overall experience was ok. The breakfast was decent quality. What was lacking was knowledge and personal care from all the staff. They did not treat us as customers. We had to ask for things and chase up for breakfast order. When we asked questions on the menu like, what is todays soup of the day, the person had to go to find out. If you get a good deal then it is what it is.

Disappointing

Our room was excellent and dinner and breakfast was very good. Hospitality was very poor. Absolutely no ambiance at all. Would not stay there again.

Ok place

5 minute walk from car park not ideal. Many items missing from the menu. Restaurant closed, so we were seated in bar area. Room ok, but dated. Shower like an old Mira type, more a drizzle than a flow. Really good breakfast. Manager, Ryan Lloyd, receptive and eager to please

One night stay

The room was refurbished well. We were unfortunate with our timing because there was a disco until late and we could not sleep initially. The hotel was busy with the wedding guests and so we could not eat there. Also, we were in the room above the kitchens and the air conditioning units were left on late into the night so we could not open the window due to the noise from them. Perhaps they could be switched off earlier? Bed had no support from springs and mattress needed replacing. Breakfast was a very good cooked scottish breakfast - good quality ingredients. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

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.
