Overview |
Perched on the edge of Hampton Court Palace, this historic hotel boasts individually styled and themed rooms.
Backing onto the famous Hampton Court maze, providing easy access to the Palace grounds and Bushey Park, The Kings Arms is surrounded by sophisticated heritage. Built around 1709, with a stone frontage that can be dated back to 1658, the hotel was recently refurbished and now offers several distinctive, fully equipped rooms. Each based around the theme of Henry VIII and his 6 wives, you can enjoy a relaxed stay with a unique feel. Dine either al fresco in the courtyard, informally in the comfortable lounge bar, or in the restaurant for something a little extra special.
