Valerie, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Enjoyable stay but breakfast could be better.

We enjoyed our stay at The Kings Arms Lancaster; overall, it was an average experience. The accommodation met our expectations and provided a comfortable visit. However, the breakfast did not meet the same standard, and I would recommend that management consider improvements in this area to enhance the overall guest experience.

Clean and tidy with excellent service from reception staff. Rooms are a little tired (albeit we went for standard) and breakfast was a bit of a farce but did the job and the two receptionists we dealt with were truly excellent
