On the main street, with a reasonably sized car-park at the back. Very competent and friendly check-in, and bar, staff. Good room, fairly recently updated; spacious with a comfortable sofa -unfortunately with no lighting for reading, and the snazzy flat-screen TV only visible from the bed! Who planned that! The TV did have a multitude of channels. so 50 rubbish... more

Stayed a hotel and booked at very last minute. I was up graded to a superior room with four poster bed. A little wasted on a single man. However the room was huge with a sofa and massive bathroom. Going to bring girlfriend to hotel for her Birthday and requested same room. Only had breakfast in hotel but service was... more

We gave this hotel another try despite its standards falling recently and poor reviews on here. Booking in was quick and efficient and the room we stayed in seemed to have undergone a bit of touching up since our last stay. We decided that it was not yet time to give the restaurant another go so went elsewhere to eat.... more

Stayed here for a couple of nights with my husband and one-year old son. Had asked for a room with a baby cot and was told on booking that we would be given one of their larger double rooms. However, our room was extremely small, with little room to swing an ant yet alone a cat!! The bathroom was very... more

I had a very good stay here. The staff were very friendly, the room was comfortable (albeit a bit hot), the bathroom was clean and although I had to walk through miles of corridors to get to my room, I had been driving so needed th excercise. The bar staff were very friendly. I would return. more

Hotel is on the main road through Dorchester and while my room (116) was facing this road, noise wasn't a major problem as the town went very quiet overnight. It has a four poster and the room is huge with a sofa and armchair and huge LCD TV, large entry space and big bathroom. I ate in the bar and... more

My husband and I stayed for two nights for a friends wedding anniversary and 40th birthday and we were so pleased we had chosen to stay there. We requested a room in a quiet location and were pleased to be located at the back of the hotel and although some staff seemed to come in and out the backdoor it... more

We had reservations at a property a few miles away that simply wouldn't answer the door. We drove into Dorchester and found the Kings Arms in the center of town. It had a busy lobby bar with a huge fireplace, perhaps too warm. Rates were 105 pounds per night, not bad considering breakfast included and an excellent room with great... more
