If you are down Castle Douglas way, planning to stay over, then this place is perfect. Easy and friendly checkin, spotless room and a team that went out their way to make us feel welcome and valued. Easy to see why it gets top marks. We had dinner which was excellent and the tap beer was good to! Cooked Breakfast was first class. Best sausages I have had in ages. Will defo be back.

10/10 Exceptional

The location in Dumfries and Galloway allowed me to access locations associated with The Wicker Man film so managed a few in a very short time. The staff were very friendly and very helpful and breakfast for veggies was excellent. My Westie Max enjoyed his stay and the fuss he received. A well situated historic property in Castle Douglas.

Fantastic hotel!

Absolutely fantastic hotel with full restaurant and bar. Dog friendly with a private car park. Delicious food with quick and friendly service. Room always clean and comfortable with possibly the greatest shower I have ever used - hot and strong! So grateful for the fantastic stay, we had come up to allow me to take my driving test and their fabulous breakfast helped prepare me! I passed my test! Thank you again.

Beyond expectation

This was better than the photos suggest. It turned out to be a well-run small hotel where everything worked and the owner was actively looking after people without being intrusive. Cosy bed, quite good and very plentiful food. Easy-going.

Short notice booking

Swift and efficient checkin. The young lady on reception was very helpful with local information and arranged and setup a table for dinner while i dropped my luggage to my upgraded room. My room was recently decorated and spotless. Bed very comfortable. Due to my early morning departure a packed lunch was arranged at no extra charge. Overall i would recommend using the hotel. The staff are key to operating first class service in the hospitality world, all friendly polite and attentive to detail.

Think it had been closed a few days. Brrr

The hotel was freezing throughout and the heating was only turned on just before I arrived. The room was tiny and the duvet was a summer one. I am from the North as well so not a softy. Would have been okay if it was cheaper but expected more tbh.

Short stay in Castle Douglas

Had read good reviews of this hotel, so decided to book and it was great. Was only here 1 night, but would definitely stay again. Bedroom & bathroom clean and comfortable and a nice comfy bed too. Dinner was great as was breakfast next morning. Staff all friendly, welcoming and helpful. Easy parking either in dedicated patron’s car park or on street. Great location for exploring the area and Castle Douglas itself is a nice town with lots of independent businesses and plenty cafes, delis etc, Took a trip to nearby Kirkcudbright in the evening…only 15 minutes away and heading to Threave Gardens…only 5 minutes drive or could even walk it. All in, a few pleasant days in the area.

10/10 Exceptional

We visited The Kings Arms hotel on a 3 night stay whilst motorcycling in the area. We were met by the friendliest member of staff who couldn't do enough for us, the room was a good sized, clean and very comfortable with 3 beds and a large modern bathroom. The evening menu had plenty of choice, sampling several options over the 3 nights, the food was excellent, i highlt recommend the haggis tower. After a good nights sleep we went to the restaurant for breakfast, various cereal, fruit and a Scottish staple porridge along with a full cooked Scottish breakfast again excellent. The bar has a good selection of beers lagers ciders and spirits. As a biker it was reassuring to know that hotels carpark was locked and secured overnight. Overall an excellent stay for bikers golfers or fishing clubs etc.

wont be back

I didn't realise the room wasn't en-suite. for £80 I think a single room with a bathroom 20m along the corridor is way over priced. No shower in the very dated bathroom, TV couldn't get BBC or Alba, room small and very dated. On the positive the service was good and breakfast was very good.
