Great Cornish Charm
I wish we could have stayed longer here, but airline delays cut our visit short. As it was we arrived at 10:30 PM just in time for last call in the pub, and it was very welcoming. The family room was great with a separate room for kids and the breakfast was fantastic: full English for me and smoked salmon for my wife and daughter. Ten minute walk down to the harbor at Mousehole with views of Saint Michael’s Mount. Close to many other sites like Minack Theater and Land’s End. Worth a return visit.

Friends I never knew I had
From the second I walked in the atmosphere and service was outstanding. As a total stranger I was made to feel welcome. The service the food and chat within the bar was all just exceptional. I have had one of the best evening out on my own with wonderful company around me that I have experienced in decades. This was made all the more special by the fact that this place is animal friendly as I got to meet a local military veteran like myself with his support Ferrets and we just chatted the night away. The staff have also bent over backwards to accommodate all of my special requests. This place is a genuine diamond off the beaten track and would suggest it be a first choice location to stay if needing to in this part of the world. Thanks all 😎👍

Lumpy bed; room tilted (head downhill) severely. Extremely tight, small room, no place to put anything. Staff was nice, food was good.

Absolutely lovely room
Only a 10 minute walk from Mousehole front this lovely pub is ideal. We were really impressed with the family room with it’s adjoining room with large modern bunk beds/large tv and it’s own drink-making facilities. It was immaculate.
The dried up mushrooms let down what was otherwise a decent cooked breakfast.

This gorgeous pub/B&B, The Kings Arms is absolutely wonderful. My partner and I booked a weekend stay here (Friday to Monday) as a base whereby we could easily access attractions and nearby places we wanted to visit ie the Minack theatre, St Michaels mount, Mousehole and Penzance.
The Kings Arms is located in Paul and is only a short walking distance to Mousehole. We had come down by train from Newton Abbot and during our stay we were able to use a local bus from Mousehole to get to Penzance bus station where we could also get other buses to other places.
The Kings Arms and customers service is outstanding. The staff were very welcoming and very attentive, always asking us if their was anything we needed to just ask.
Our room was beautifully presented and very clean.
The food is excellent. Lovely choices from the menus and the quality of the food is just fantastic with all the ingredients sourced locally.
Overall we were extremely impressed with the Kings arms and we will definitely be returning.
Highly, our rating 10/10

Whilst the Kings Arms is in a lovely village and convenient for The Minack Theatre and other local tourist spots, the room was very expensive but a huge let down - It was really cramped, and lacked some key things. The service was generally poor both when checking-in and at breakfast. Check-in wasn't until after 4pm and breakfast had to be taken before 9am - not very focused on the guests' needs. Breakfast was under cooked and took 50 minutes: arriving much later than the required 9am!! A real disappointment and way over priced.
