“The Kings Arms has a surprisingly stylish cocktail bar for Berwick, and its Italian restaurant, Amore, makes al fresco dining a real draw; plus, I noticed how cheery and helpful the staff were, a definite plus. With its history and proximity to coastal attractions, I think this hotel has a lot going for it, especially for leisure travellers. It feels both central and welcoming.”

My recent visit had some drawbacks. The shower was barely warm, a real disappointment after a long day. I noticed a curtain also hung loosely, just off its hook. Breakfast felt overpriced relative to what I got for it.

great selectionfantastic locationeasy transportwindow noise
The breakfast provided a great selection of choices. the hotel's location was fantastic. I could easily walk to nearby bars and restaurants. public transport was easily accessible, convenient for exploring further (i particularly enjoyed the ease of getting around).
the room allocated to me was on the first floor, with the window facing a flat roof. this resulted in noise from seagulls, which woke me up at sunrise. it was a bit disruptive.
Location

the hotel is conveniently located near the river and various local attractions, including an italian restaurant within the building. the surrounding area is very pleasant, and getting around to different points of interest is relatively easy.

the steps up to the hotel entrance are quite steep. this might be difficult with mobility issues. a ramp or handrail would improve accessibility.
