Really nice little hotel. Amazing food, and great range of drinks. Cozy bar area too. Room is old, but it's an old building, so looks the part.

Lovely pub, great food!

Great pub and food is superb. Service was excellent with really friendly staff. The only thing that let down the weekend was our room which is tired and could do with a refurbishment. All in all though, a great place for a weekend getaway.

Pretty good, rooms are bit simple but sufficient and as there's a pub there's some noise outside. But overall pleased, especially with breakfast. Biggest issue was the far car park.

The Kings Arms is really convenient for the train station in Berkhamsted, just a short walk away. The room was clean and comfortable, although the corridors look tired and in need of some TLC. The food in the restaurant was really good - fabulous freshly cooked pizza in the wood-fired oven for dinner and full English for breakfast.

Nice but could be a lot better

Pub was nice, very busy midweek. Food was delightful. I travel a lot for business and breakfasts like that are few and far between. Room was tired and basic. Water in shower was constantly between warm and cold. Bed was like a slab of concrete.
