The Royal Kings Arms Hotel
An historic building reborn in the heart of Lancaster
Our Hotel
The newly renovated Royal Kings Arms dates back to 1625 and the reign of Charles 1. With its 55 contemporary en-suite bedrooms, including the impressive Castle Suite, the Brasserie Restaurant and Crypt Cocktail Lounge, this much loved historic hotel is a stunning venue for visitors to the Lancaster area and the local community alike. For couples looking to plan an unforgettable wedding day, and businesses hunting for a first class conference or meeting venue, the hotel’s impressive architecture, contemporary interior and award winning food make our hotel the perfect choice.
Our Bedrooms
All our bedrooms come complete with tea and coffee making facilities, free WiFi and wall-mounted smart televisions. And with a choice of standard to deluxe accommodation, and single to family rooms, we offer everything the weary traveller needs for a special stay and rejuvenating night’s sleep.
Food & Drink
The Brasserie
Our stunning restaurant and bar offers guests a light and lively venue by day, with a more intimate mood in the evenings. The Brasserie provides sanctuary from the hustle and bustle of the city from dawn until late, with a range of menus featuring the pick of local produce, traditional favourites, the best of international cuisine and an impressive choice of vegan and vegetarian options.
The Crypt
Hidden away beneath the luxurious halls of the Royal Kings Arms hotel, the Crypt has led many lives – disco, nightclub, punk-rock hotspot. Now, this historic venue at the heart of Lancaster has been completely transformed, reopening its doors as a revolutionary cocktail lounge, wine bar and eaterie.
Latest Hotel Events
Jasper Carott & Alistair McGowan
Comedy legends Jasper Carrott and Alistair McGowan split the bill and your sides with a night of comedy stand up and impressions.
Drawing on their wealth of experience they present a show of pure laughter and entertainment that is not to be missed.
When the pair first teamed up last year for a one off festival appearance it proved a match made in comedy heaven and the chance to work together again was simply too good to miss. Splitting the evening between them, the mix of Jasper’s inimitable stand up and Alistair’s peerless impressions is a terrific experience for the audience and the artists alike.
Jasper took a break from live performance after a 40 year career that has taken him around the globe and seen him showered with awards including the prestigious BBC TV Personality of the Year and the British Comedy Awards Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2003 Jasper was awarded an OBE in Her Majesty’s New Year’s Honours List, in recognition of his outstanding work for charity.
He’s back now for what may be his final live shows, and thrilled to be working with Alistair. “After last year we both wanted to do more together. For me the chance to work with such an accomplished performer as Alistair is a dream come true. Just past my 70th year, this might be my last series of shows. It means I can go out on a high in the best comedy company.”
