“The Kings Arms Hotel has an intriguing blend of historic charm and modern amenities, placing it right in the heart of Berwick Upon Tweed, near the Maltings Theatre and the dramatic ruins of Alnwick Castle; its inviting cocktail bar, rumoured to be the first in town, and the on-site Italian restaurant are definite highlights. While some past guests have pointed out issues with noise and dated decor, I appreciate the hotel's central location and on-site dining. It's a unique stay for those wanting to be close to everything.”
