EugenieFranceL'amabilité du personnel, nous avons pu avoir une chambre silencieuse et plus grande suite à notre demande, en raison de bruits de tuyauterie.

The Kings Head Hotel requires full pre payment of the total amount of your stay upon check in. The property requires pre authorization of a valid credit or debit card on check in for any additional services during you stay. Any loss or damage to items listed within the hotel inventory will be charged as required up to 30 days from the date of departure. Any damage to the hotel bedrooms or public areas will be charged accordingly no more than 30 days from the date of departure. If any damage means the room must be taken off sale, the hotel reserves the right to charge a full night's stay in addition to the cost of damage. The hotel reserves the right to charge the full amount for reinstatement of items found to have gone missing or to have been broken or damaged. This will also apply to any guest smoking in the hotel, for which a non-negotiable charge of £300.00 will be made. Due to the layout of the hotel, some bedrooms are not accessible by elevator and do involve stairs. Please let us know in advance if you require an accessible room, or assistance with your luggage. A deposit may be required at the property.
What we’d check for you here
- How many rooms they will hold at once, for how long, and on what terms.
- That the step-free room is actually free on your dates, and whether it is a roll-in shower or a bath, which the listing never says.
- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
- Whether the rate moves for your dates, and what it includes.
- What the property actually charges at the desk on top of the rate.
Questions about Kings Head Hotel
What time is check-in and check-out at Kings Head Hotel?
Check-in is from 3:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Kings Head Hotel allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Does Kings Head Hotel have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Can I book a block of rooms at Kings Head Hotel?
The property lists meeting and banquet space, which usually means it handles group business — but how many rooms it will hold at once, for how long, and at what rate are set case by case and are not in any feed. Tell us the dates and the number of rooms and we'll get those terms from the property in writing before anything is charged.
Does Kings Head Hotel have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Kings Head Hotel?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 3:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Kings Head Hotel?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
