The Kings Arms is an old coaching inn, and retains lots of character. The staff is welcoming and the rooms are very comfortable. My wife and I stayed in a classic double, which had all the amenities which one would expect, including a very nice modern bathroom, and was very comfortable, while still retaining the rather quirky old-world vibe of the building. The breakfast was great! We had the Full English (how could we not?), which checked all the boxes. The dining and bar areas are spacious and modern, and the service is prompt and friendly. We ate dinner there and the menu is what you would expect from an English country hotel, or high-end gastro pub. Nicely presented, good portions, and delicious! I would highly recommend staying, or even just eating there.

Upon arrival to the hotel, the room we were put in had a broken toilet and were moved to a annex room because it was the only one available. We didn't like being outside of the main hotel and we had paid for a city-view room but now had a window looking into a parking lot. We let it slide and wanted to just enjoy the rest of our stay. Upon getting ready for bed, we noticed how dirty and unmade the room was. The shower curtain was grimy/ stained, the mugs were dirty and we had no spoons to make tea, and then when we pulled back the sheet to get into bed, there was no fitted sheet and the loose sheet had hairs on it along with a stain. It was clear at this point the room had not been cleaned. Upon talking to the front desk in the morning, the staff was just as mortified by the state of the room as we were and were very apologetic (the staff on site was very kind!). I expressed that we did not get the accommodations we were expecting and paid for in our first night stay and I was told the manager, Ian, would contact me. Rather than remedying our experience and adjusting the rate of our stay for the one uncleanly night and parking-lot view we overpaid for, I have spent the following days of my trip arguing with the manager as he wanted to "investigate" the situation days after the fact. His investigation of the "facts," I can only assume involved asking the staff if they cleaned the room... which of course was said to be the case since he was not on the premise the day we brought our concerns to the front desk. He has since tried to defend all points made, seeing no reason to amend the cost of our first night. We have even acknowledged that the room was adequately cleaned the next day and we are not asking for a price adjustment on our second night. Instead, he has put it on us for not calling reception to request these things fixed during our first night (despite the fact is was bedtime and the room needed to entirely be cleaned). He compared it to guest calling the front desk to get more pillows or biscuits. Following my correspondence with him, I would avoid the Mandolay. If the stay does not meet basic standards, do not expect the hotel to deal with it in an appropriate manor. Truthfully, I was embarrassed I recommended to my friend that we stay here. The uncleanliness is not acceptable during COVID and the service following it has been a headache!

Thankfully it has undergone a major renovation since then and is unrecognisable when compared to its former self.

The rooms have been given a very much needed makeover and are now a relaxing place to stay. A massive improvement and worth considering if you are staying in Guildford.

They have a gym and a nice pool with jacuzzi sauna and steam room. There is lots of food! I love the food at this place, they do good cooked breakfast with very smart waiters and again, great fun to hang out with when you are stuck at a hotel for a period of time. The TV got knocked out once, annoying but it is an old place, and I was staying in the bit they were about to sell. The living room is so cool! They have Tennyson and other famous Brits all on the walls and nice furnishings and carpet. WIFI! I debated giving this four stars because the decor in my room was horrific - yellow wallpaper and low hung ceiling supports, plus a bit of weird mold in the shower. However, I did stay for one night in the other end of the hotel, and that was great, clean and even had windows (they were tiny in my room unfortunately). Since I know they are getting rid of that bit and no one else will likely have to stay in it for too much longer I give this place five stars. It's a lot of fun and extremely accommodating.

Didn't know what to expect from an English Inn, my experience previous to this trip being limited to Fawlty Towers. Suffice it to say, Fawlty Towers this is not.--nothing faulty to report at all! The historic inn, of course, has its issues (gutters need some work; no screens on windows--may be an English thing--; lunch food coming out slowly on Saturday owing, I imagine, to a small kitchen and a large crowd; no hair dryer or shampoo (but plenty of soap and bath gel) in room), but I viewed them more as "quirks" than problems. The room was clean and ready on time, the bathroom had been updated within the last 5-10 years, and there is WiFi throughout the Inn. The pub was terrific, exactly what an American beer enthusiast like myself was looking for. The country garden in the back, with umbrellas and tables and a patio and a great little stream running through was a huge bonus. The breakfast included in our rate was outstanding. Full English was available, or any variation thereof. Coffee was well done, and the toast, eggs and bacon were terrific. The biggest attribute of the Drummond was the staff, all of whom were attentive and accommodating, and most especially Jay, who I believe is either the proprietor, manager, or both. Jay is just about the nicest guy you will ever meet. He took care of us for breakfast every morning, he served as beers in the pub, he got us taxis when we needed them, and gave us great directions and ideas for golf and hiking excursions. On our departure he gave us a secure space to hold luggage after check out but before we were departing. I even witnessed him make a trip to his own home to get his own iPhone charger and shoe polish to give to a guest who was in need of same. Lastly, we found the price to be very reasonable, especially given the quality of the breakfast and staff.
