Liked: Staff & service
Felt the walls were not well insulated as I could hear the conversation from the rooms next door
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.

Average ish
My double room was very noisy with paper thin walls. Very cramped bathroom. The evening restaurant meal was not good value for money.
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.
Decent stay just off M74 on a long drive . Single room was small but cosy and staff were pleasant especially the young girl at breakfast . For the price can’t go wrong
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.
Welcoming and courteous staff
The bedrooms and general hotel areas are spotlessly clean and inviting.
Full breakfast was lovely and cooked to order. Hotel menu offers a good selection for day and evening dining.
Would definitely recommend. We will be back !
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.
Just off the motorway, recently refurbished rooms, lots of free parking nearby, fantastic breakfast (cost an additional £15) , and friendly staff, good evening menu
Wonderful hotel room, evening meal and breakfast. Very helpful, friendly staff. If in the area will definitely visit again

As reported yours last night Apr 4th there was no record of any reservation my name through Expedia and Hotel was full. This results in a cist problem. Please acknowlege your recipt this info.
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.
Booked at short notice, I phoned and explained I would be arriving on the 22:35 train. Walked around the corner and they welcomed me by name.
And the breakfast - amazing!!!!!
