Lovely hotel, really friendly staff, and the room whilst compact was very clean and really comfortable. The breakfast options were great, and excellent value, the full English really sets you up for the day, cooked fresh to order. A small walk into town. We will definitely be staying again

Location was great as was the hotel. Shower in the room was the only downside. Could not keep a constant temperature otherwise everything was great. Evening meal excellent, breakfast fine. Wished we could have stayed longer.

“We were most disappointed.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Submitted via mobile
The first room we were given had an obnoxious smell in the ensuite. The second room was clean but poorly lit. The meals were terrible. Our evening meal took 1.5 hours to arrive due to various gas and electricity failures in the kitchen. When it arrived my wife's meal had clearly just been reheated and both our meals were swamped in gravy. We eat out the second night. The breakfast comprised tinned ingredients ( mushrooms, tomatoes etc) instead of fresh food. The fruit had not been refreshed from the previous day. The tea had to be made from a flask of hot water and a non-descript tea bag. All this spoilt our stay and was not helped by having to walk by what appeared to be a drug addicts gathering point and a pick-up point for ladies of the night on our walk to the city centre. For the price, the experience offered by the Kings Lodge Inn was a disgrace. We have experienced far better for less elsewhere.
The manager / barman did his best to ameliorate a difficult situation for us.
