Having read the other reviews about this hotel, I very nearly cancelled the booking. I stayed last night in room 21 and can honestly say it's one of the best nights sleep I have had away from home. I felt so upset about the reviews, I joined tripadvisor and thought I would let you know about my stay. Dont get... More

Firstly we couldn't park. Then we couldn't find the receptionist. Then the beer was horrible (we went out to eat, didn't want to chance it!). Then the room was either too hot (windows closed) or too noisy (windows open). Then the bed was uncomfortable. Then the breakfast was dreadful. ...we won't be going back.

I had great expectations with this hotel.. but it wasn't really good. It is very old and makes noises when you walk anywhere, even when laying in the bed. The room was small but clean, small bed, the bathroom made a better impression. Breakfast was the best thing. I think the comments here are overrated.. at least when i was... More

We booked the hotel for an over-night stop over on the basis of their website and the descriptions & pictures of their 'recently renovated' rooms. The room we stayed in had certainly not be renovated; the carpet was filthy, there was mold all over the ceiling in the bathrooms and spider-webs all over the curtains. There was new TV in... More

Rude staff, terrible parking, a breakfast so poor my son could have done better (and he is 2!) Outside of hotel is grim. The owners have not even bothered to repair and repaint areas that have been damaged! The plants on the window ledges are priceless - every single one of them is dead! They look like they were last... More

Our daughter lives in Godalming, but her place is too small to accomodate us so we use the Kings Arms. We have stayed here many times, and must say that the current Managers Andy & Sue always make us very welcome. The rooms are comfortable and clean, with up to date bathroom fittings. The food is excellent and very good... More

The kitchen at this hotel is in poor repair. It is a haven of filth and bacteria as,due to lazyness and inexperience cleaning is not carried out on a regular basis,other than the basics. Your fine dining experience will not be the home cooked food you would expect but frozen ready meals prepared by Brake Brothers.There are some prepared foods,such... More

On my trip to England the Kings Arms and Royal Hotel was one of my favorite hotels. I thought the room was very comfortable and slept well. We had no troubles with noise and the room was very clean. Also, the internet and television worked great. I also quite liked the bathroom, it looked recently refurbished and there was a... More

We loved staying here. We had the best room in the hotel, with a small balcony, a fantastic roll-top bathtub, and a big shower. The room itself had a comfortable sofa, easy-chair, large cupboard, and dresser. The large bed was beautiful, and very comfortable (But sadly quite noisy - I think the headboard may need tightening to the rest of... More
