This is a very well managed hotel. It was busy when I stayed. I had a problem, beyond the control of the hotel, but the staff managed it perfectly. I would stay again.

David and his team looked after us well, providing a nice comfortable room with good quality beds, a bathroom and towels. Downstairs is the local bar and dining area where a good selection of beers are served. The Kings Arms is located in the central part of Castle Douglas and includes secure parking. We had a nice stay.

Absolutely fantastic hotel with full restaurant and bar. Dog friendly with a private car park. Delicious food with quick and friendly service. Room always clean and comfortable with possibly the greatest shower I have ever used - hot and strong! So grateful for the fantastic stay, we had come up to allow me to take my driving test and their fabulous breakfast helped prepare me! I passed my test! Thank you again.

The location in Dumfries and Galloway allowed me to access locations associated with The Wicker Man film so managed a few in a very short time. The staff were very friendly and very helpful and breakfast for veggies was excellent. My Westie Max enjoyed his stay and the fuss he received. A well situated historic property in Castle Douglas.

This was better than the photos suggest. It turned out to be a well-run small hotel where everything worked and the owner was actively looking after people without being intrusive. Cosy bed, quite good and very plentiful food. Easy-going.

I didn't realise the room wasn't en-suite. for £80 I think a single room with a bathroom 20m along the corridor is way over priced. No shower in the very dated bathroom, TV couldn't get BBC or Alba, room small and very dated. On the positive the service was good and breakfast was very good.

Very helpful hosts. Went out of their way to be of service. Everything was dealt with very promptly. Rooms very clean and appeared recently decorated. My partner found her bed too hard for her liking and didn't sleep well. I slept fine. Water pressure in the en suite shower was low.
