Overall Ratings & Reviews Kings Arms Inn

Nice pub with wonky rooms. Food is excellent and not expensive. Value for money. Stopped here 3 times.

Cold rooms, single glazed window, broken radiator, broken electric heater, door locked at breakfast, noisy. Poor all round.

Needs money spent on accommodation, very dated and not that tidy.

The most important thing for me on the nights I stayed was a good night's sleep. That wasn't possible on the old, noisy, metal sprung mattress in Room 8. The bed was incredibly uncomfortable and I hardly slept.

The service was generally excellent. I was greeted by the inn's landlord Malcolm who showed me to my room. He was very friendly and welcoming upon my arrival and I felt very valued as a customer. The room was generally clean and peaceful, which was lovely. The shared shower room/toilet had a faulty ceiling light bulb throughout my 2 night stay. I reported this fault to 2x members of staff on the first night but this was never rectified, and so I had to use my mobile phone to light to room at night time every time I went to use the toilet in there. Other than this, the stay was very pleasant.

I had a comfortable nights stay. The food and service was excellent. Good area for parking. Good access to A30

The rooms are upstairs of a local pub, not modernised interior but simple and clean enough. You can hear some activities going on downstairs but didn't bother me. It stop at certain time, I had good sleep at night.

Enjoyed my stay

is okay

Staff were really lovely, food was delicious… if you’re staying in Exeter and drive I would recommend!

A lovely period property with lots of traditional features. A homely room with plenty of storage space.The beds /bedding was clean and soft. As it is in old pub in the country there were a few cobwebs in the corners! The shower room was a little tired. Nevertheless it was generally clean and comfortable and certainly good value for money. I had a small portion of fish, chips and pees followed by chocolate brownie in the bar which was tasty.The chips were a little dry. In the morning I had a fried breakfast ( the only choice for breakfast). It needed to be ordered in advance. A good hearty plateful .

Overall I had a nice day at this place and I'm just leaving review to note a few things for improvement . Cleaning needs to be more thorough in the bathrooms. The mattress should be replaced. Staff were great and food was tasty. Be aware nose floats up from the bar. Once it's closed the place is very quiet.

Room was basic as per described. Bed was comfortable. Staff were a little forgetful: requested an extra towel - had to be reminded, and the request for breakfast for next morning never got as far as the kitchen! Consequently went to a nice cafe about 3 miles down the road. However we had a meal there at night and that was excellent. Staff were friendly.

The staff assured me that i'd be able to get into my room when i arrived later than planned. But they didn't leave the key in the room door, so i wasn't able to get in!! Had to sleep in my car, so not a fantastic experience.

A very comfortable stay with friendly and helpful staff. We very much enjoyed the Abba night!!!!

Perfect for an overnight stay & the food in the reataurant was top notch and good value for money. in addition the beer was excellently kept.

Too noisy until 1am

Very passable basic room for a very good price. Can't complain for the money it cost. Clean and comfortable enough and friendly staff but the shower wasn't great (broken attachment to the rail) and the coffee at breakfast was undrinkable.

Quaint, original pub

This stopover stay was made perfect by the kindness and friendliness of the member of staff who, on learning that I was going to be late, said they would stay behind and wait until I had arrived. They were so polite and hospitable.
