Kings Arms in Forest of Dean

This should have been a 5 Star Review, but on our last night the hotel had an Open Mic Jazz Night which was pretty loud. That might have reduced it to 4 Stars overall. However I went downstairs to close the through-door from the stairwell/Reception area to the kitchen which was funneling the noise up to the rooms. Unfortunately the door was jammed OPEN and I couldn't move it - and it had a plate on it saying Fire Door Keep Shut. I can't give zero Stars so I'm afraid it gets a no-brainer 1 Star.

Contactless payment at the icecream hut would be useful. Only had enough cash for ice cream for the children so the adults had to miss out.😭

Really friendly family run hotel. Rooms were clean and comfortable. One little observation, could have done with a mirror in the main room and a few more plugs. Food was superb. Large portions and very reasonably priced. Always piping hot. Great for exploring the Forest of Dean and easy access into South Wales.

Great service from all staff but special mention to Casey who excelled in his personality, patience and service today Great food and service thank you Casey

An excellent experience. Intimate and authentic.
