The Hotel is extremely dated and the hallways and bedrooms smell of old chip oil. The bed was uncomfortable and the sheets did not smell 'fresh', and thats putting it nicely. The bathroom light didn't work properly and my parents-in-laws TV also did not work in their room. There were hairs in the bathroom from a previous guest, and the... More

We were a bit apprehensive in view of negative reviews however were more than happy with the hotel. Very clean, all amenities (apart from internet which is apparently being planned) expected in a hotel are present, and every one of the staff very pleasant. The housekeeping service is great, and the rooms are quaint - it is an old building,... More

Had an awful experience with the Kings Arms Hotel in Kyleakin. We showed up and were immediately told that there was no room available for us and that we had to be outbooked to another B&B. This would have been fine if we had not been traveling with friends and had been notified of this inconvenience beforehand. In any case,... More

Have been staying there while doing work in that area and yes the hotel is old but surely that's the point ?? The rooms are very clean, the food is amazing and the staff are just so friendly and helpful and can't do enough. Highly recommended :)
