Pleasant good sized room with ensuite and comfy bed. Downstairs the bar area looked welcoming and seemed very popular. Staff were friendly and helpful. Unfortunately they didn't serve breakfast but the Summer Cafe across the road was excellent. The hotel is located in the middle of Malmesbury so well positioned for exploring this delightful little town. It was also convenient for us to visit family who lived locally.

The Kings Arms Coaching Inn is a rather quirky place to stay, partly updated and partly still a bit oldy worldly. It has a very friendly atmosphere and staff and we enjoyed our 6 night stay very much. We used it as our base for walks in the country side, visiting family and a trip to Bath. The food is good too, and we were also impressed by the local Italian style restaurants, especially Aroma.

Iliked the positioning of the bedrooms, also their decor. The staff were friendly, the Tapas evening meal was tasty and delivered with good service. The entrance to the car park at the back of the hotel was quite narrow, but doable, rewarded by the splendid view from the terrace. Everting we wanted to see was within easy walking distance.

Ancient Pub in historic town

Stayed in the annexe of the pub which dates back to 1640. Malmesbury is an historic town. Lovely beer garden with views of the hills. Good dinner in the evening too. Quite an expensive room and would expect breakfast for that which they don’t do.

Lovely Ancient Coaching Inn

This was a lovely ancient coaching inn, and we were staying in the converted stables. Very tight to get through the arch into the carpark if you have a wide car. Although there was no garden with a great view over the countryside

Comfortable, cosy, stylishly furnished bedroom and en-suite. A little noisy until after last orders but a very friendly crowd. No breakfast but an excellent coffee shop/cafe just a few metres up the street. Narrow access to the parking but can still get a wide car through carefully, and plenty of space on the street.
