The Kings Arms Hotel is a historic hotel at 30 High Street in Old Amersham, with a building history reaching back to the 1400s. The stay is centered on a restored former coaching inn, so the setting is not a generic modern hotel block; exposed timbers and low ceilings are part of the building’s character.

Rooms are en-suite, with private bathrooms, showers, and bathtubs in some rooms. Air conditioning and free Wi-Fi are available in the rooms, which helps make the old building work for a present-day stay without losing the historic feel.

Breakfast is included with every room and is served in the building each morning, with buffet items and hot choices such as a Full English, vegetarian Full English, eggs Benedict, porridge, and mushrooms on toast. The hotel also has a restaurant and bar, so the stay can work without needing to leave the property for breakfast or an evening drink.

Parking is a practical benefit at The Kings Arms Hotel in Amersham: staying guests have complimentary parking in a private car park, reached through the archway on the High Street. The hotel is also positioned for arrivals by train, with direct Chiltern Railways services from London Marylebone to Amersham and the walk from the station down into Old Amersham.

The main limit is built into the historic fabric of the property: the building has low ceilings because it is a centuries-old coaching inn. Travelers who prefer fully modern proportions should know that this is part of the stay rather than a design flaw.
