    Convenient Location with Room for Improvement

    Staying here was convenient for the concert I attended, just a short walk away. However, the noise from the street made it challenging to sleep. I recommend requesting a room away from the main road to enjoy a restful night. The on-site dining was decent, adding a local touch.

    I loved the inviting atmosphere of the Kilford Arms, especially how accessible the areas were for seniors. The staff was exceptionally attentive, quickly assisting me and ensuring I felt comfortable throughout my stay.

    noise issue

    Had a fantastic time here with my friends! We enjoyed exploring the town and hitting up some local golf courses, which are just a short drive away. The hotel had a good vibe with lots of entertainment options. Just a heads up, some rooms may have noise from the street, but overall, our stay was great! Would definitely return!

    One of our group did have an issue with noise from outside late at night, which made it tough for them to get a good night's sleep. It might be worth checking room placement if you're a light sleeper.

    Put this on your radar

    Enjoyed a fantastic stay! The room was tidy and comfortable, and the staff were delightfully professional. The bar has a fun atmosphere, and the location is just a short walk to many attractions. Don't miss the breakfast next door—it's highly recommended. Can't wait to return for another visit!

    clean room
    fast check-in
    disruptive noise
    slow breakfast service
    limited dining options

    Check-in was incredibly fast, and the room offered great WiFi and a clean environment, making for a pleasant stay. However, noise from the bar below was disruptive, especially on a weekend, making it hard to sleep. Breakfast service was slow, and the options fell short, but the pub downstairs provided decent meals. Located just a short walk from the historic center, this place has potential yet needs to address its noise and dining service.

    Unexpected noise during our stay

    The hotel is in a fantastic location, just a short walk from many attractions. The staff were friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome right from check-in.

    However, our relaxation was disrupted by loud noises from outside at night. Despite our complaints, the noise continued, detracting from what could have been a perfect getaway.

    kid-friendly activities

    We had a wonderful family stay at this hotel. The staff were super friendly, accommodating our baby with ease. The location made it simple to stroll around the charming town, and the delicious food options satisfied everyone in our group.

    In my wife’s opinion, more kid-friendly activities would be great.
