Kings Arms Hotel, Amersham

This hotel dates from the Tudor period, but the inside reflects the very best in modern design. It is featured in the film Four Weddings and a Funeral, as well as the TV show Midsomer Murders.

With hundreds of years of history (Oliver Cromwell once stayed here), The Kings Arms Hotel is ideal for a romantic getaway.

A relaxed lounge bar features a log fire, while the original part of the building has executive rooms with large desks, broadband access and flat-screen TV.

The Kings Arms is in the heart of Old Amersham, known for its exclusive boutiques and antiques shops. Food and drink is served in the Kings Bar & Bistro, which is located in the same building as the hotel. There is a local golf course, while Ascot and Windsor racecourses are within easy reach.

Amersham is on the London Underground network, 50 minutes from Wembley Stadium and just over an hour from central London (Bank stop). The Kings Arms Hotel is 10 minutes’ drive from the M40 and M25.
