Room comfortable enough but had no mirror for hair drying/makeup. (Designed by a bloke!). Also, Cedric the resident seagull who lived outside our bedroom window ,woke us up at 0500 each morning.

6/10 Okay

Frequent travel, London

Middle of town, old hotel.
Car parking on street limited to 1hour. All day parking available but none dedicated to hotel residents. Restaurant food ok but better offerings in town.

Woken Early by Plumbing
Pleasant Hotel in the heart of the town. Ornate Decor in Reception, Bar and other Communal spaces but hotel room (2nd Floor) was bland in comparison. One major complaint was that there was an unknown plumbing/mechanical droning sound which kept 'pulsing'for 10 mins approx every hour from 7:30am. Obviously this woke us and kept us awake. We complained to the receptionist when leaving who apologised but otherwise didn't seem very interested.

Grand old hotel - but not the restaurant
The King's Arms is something of a paradox. It's a rather grand old hotel in the middle of town, where, according to the plaque, Charles Dickens did a reading. There is a bit of a Dickens theme running through the ground floor. Bedrooms are comfortable and can be reached via an elevator. The Limoncello restaurant, however, doesn't reflect the theme, and I think it's because it is trying to fill tables by offering plentiful food at attractive prices to local families. It reminded me of Italian restaurants in 1960s Britain, with chianti bottles with a candle stuck in on every table. We were hoping to be able to eat local seafood, but the menu was largely pizza and steak served with different sauces. We felt rushed to make our initial choice, and then were disappointed to see that there were some interesting daily specials on a board that the server had not pointed out. The house red wasn't too good, but it was also very cheap; we should have been a bit more discriminating there. The loud music was unpleasant and made conversation difficult. Service at breakfast was very slow, considering how few guests were there.

Be prepared to wait. Don't have the breakfast.
Not a bad hotel, fully refurbished rooms. It is however overpriced. The place is also severely under-staffed, meaning you wait to check it, wait to check out and wait for breakfast, wait to be served at the bar, at any time of the day... breakfast lunch or dinner. Wait, and wait, and wait... Breakfast was a case-in-point... We (a work colleague and I) met for breakfast at 8:15. We went through to the restaurant, via the main reception. We then had to wait, in the dark, for someone to greet us. After 10 minutes, I went back to reception to ask if breakfast was being served. To be told the receptionist would be "with me in a minute". There was no-one else around, guest or staff... The man from reception then turned came through and turned the light on, and asked us what we wanted. I asked for tea, my colleague asked for a cup of the filter coffee, a full jug of which was on the hot plate, to be told that this "would be cold", and would we be OK with a coffee from the machine. It took 15 minutes for these to arrive. We both asked for the "Breakfast Sandwich". I asked for sausage, my colleague asked for bacon and sausage, to be told it was only "choice of sausage and bacon", not both. 20 minutes later I was presented with 2 chipolata sausages (cut lengthways) lined up on two slices of yesterdays sliced white bread. A bargain at just £8.95.
