Second time I have stayed here so I already knew about the car park a few hundred metres away, so went straight there. The addition to when I stayed last time was the benefit of evening food. Basically Tapas which was great with a good range of options. Room was spacious and very well equipped including a Nespresso coffee machine. Comfy bed and great shower. Staff were excellent too. Will be back.

Nice hotel in centre of the town. Nicely furnished and nice toiletries. Staff really friendly and place felt relaxed. Position means you’re straight in the town which was quiet at night and you can walk everywhere. I found a little spot to eat which was very nice just down the road but there were multiple options. My only quibble was that as an old hotel it didn’t have air con on what was a very hot day. They did leave the window open and a big fan which helped.

We arrived at the property at 7.40pm expecting to eat dinner. We were met by the only employee on site who said that he was just about to try ringing us as his shift was about to finish and he would be locking up at 8pm. We asked about food and we were told that no food was available after 3pm. Amazing for a 4star hotel reputed to be the best in Louth! I should say that the employee concerned was helpful in advising us where to get food and he gave us a front door key. We did find something suitable in good time.

Good stay, I was in room 4. Overall would have preferred a hotel who served breakfast from 7:30am instead of 8am.

Great hotel but restaurant closes at 5, only bad thing. But that being said there is loads of good restaurants within walking distance. The car park is a bit of a walk though, minimum 5 mins

The mason arms is a great hotel. I stay in alot of hotel's due to work and this is one of the better ones. Being a non chain the room's are stylish and characterful at the same time. I had an old fire place in my room! Nespresso coffee machine! Excellent shower, very powerful, could have stayed in there for hours. A minor negative, no onsite parking, however a few council car parks within a 5min walk and hotel can issue free parking. If you have a lot of luggage you could drive to front of hotel, off load and then park up I guess. A slightly bigger negative, the bar and restaurant closed at 5pm (a little strange for a hotel), but Louth has loads of great bars and restaurants so enjoyed a stroll around in the evening. Also breakfast doesn't start till 8, so not great if you need to be gone prior to. 7 would be a better time to start. Still wouldn't put me off staying again!

First, the staff were all very helpful and pleasant. The place was clean. The bed was comfortable. You must understand this place was built over 120 years ago - it still has some of that charm, and the rest seems to have been updated piecemeal, as the need has arisen. So far, so as expected. But the restaurant hours are a little bizarre - they basically don't serve evening meals. OK, there are plenty of places in Louth, I suppose - weather permitting. But watch out for the shower tap that comes off in your hand, or the broken flush on the toilet. I guess you could say the place is packed with eccentric charm, but you know what? I may even risk another stay!

No car park on site * I think it’s really important to be transparent about the amenities of a hotel within the listing to advise the person that is booking what is available. As a solo female business travelling , I choose hotels with car parks , however this hotel do not have a car park. They let you use a council which is around a 5 min walk away across town. For me personally ,To feel safe I always book to have a car park so I don’t have to find my way in the dark alone once I have arrived. Jess on reception was lovely and walked back with me from the car park but it’s just my one non negotiable. I did discuss this with the hotel and they said it’s hotels.com that have caused this due to not being able to state that it’s not on site. I think morally it should be removed from the page to help others.

Our room was spotless, the bedding and towels were very good. The bed was very comfortable and our room was quiet. The Masons Arms is convenient for the town centre and parking. The only negative point was that we could not have breakfast earlier than 8am.
