The location of this hotel is absolutely amazing. The Crosby beach is only a 10 minute walk and the main street of Waterloo is just 5 minutes away with bars and restaurants a plenty. The Royal Hotel is a lovely place to stay with a restaurant on site. The staff are excellent and very helpful. The rooms are clean and have enough space. You have tea and coffee making facilities in the room and a fan to cool you down on hot days as there is no aircon. Rooms are set on 2 floors but there is no lift so maybe not a place to stay if you are disabled. We had a meal on our first night and the food was delightful and cooked to perfection. The price of the meal was affordable and the service by the waitress was excellent. They have a bar there that can seat plenty of customers and once again the bar staff are very helpful and cheerful. I will definitely be staying here again in the future and would advise anyone heading to this area to do the same. Thank you to all the staff at the Royal it was a pleasure to stay at your lovely hotel.

The hotel is nice enough. The bar is a little dated. Bed was comfortable. There is a bullet hole in the bathroom window (yes, really). The bathroom was down some perillous stairs. All in all this is a comfortable hotel.

Its a lovely clean well decorated hotel , the staff were very pleasant and accommodating, and the breakfast option were very good.. I know its an old and historic hotel and because of this I am not sure if its a listed building but it really could do with a lift for the disabled/people with balance issue.

The room was clean enough and the bed ok. No air conditioning. No lift (or help with luggage). They mention this in the email after booking but don’t mention the 6 sets of heavy doors you have to walk through. People with long hair beware - it’s a 1970s style keep your thumb pressed down travel hairdryer - I contacted reception to get a real one and was told that their sole good one had gone missing. Took nearly 90 mins to dry my hair. Not fun. Unless you have to be in Waterloo early the next day, there are much better options in the city centre.

Accommodation was great and whilst a little way out of the city it was easy to get around. Plenty of choices in and around the hotel. Staff were excellent, friendly and efficient. Helped out very well with a check in issue. Particularly the helpful lady in the breakfast restaurant, very helpful and informative. Only thing missing a fridge in the room which seems to be the norm in UK

Lovely hotel and lovely situation for easy to reach walks and restaurants. My only criticism is that staff in the hotel, most of who were young enough to be my children or grandchildren, repeatedly called my husband and I ‘honeys’ or ‘guys’. These terms of endearment or colloquial slang are not appropriate when speaking to guests and especially those older than you. I would have much preferred being called Mr and Mrs or sir and madam.

Really friendly staff at reception, breakfast and housekeeping Clean comfortable rooms mine was overlooking the front of the hotel. There are pull down mesh screens over the windows due to sand flies . The safe in the room has a £10 refundable charge. Train station is nearby and bus stops into Liverpool 10 minutes walk away. Takes about 45 minutes into city centre n the 53 bus.

The price of the meal was affordable and the service by the waitress was excellent. They have a bar there that can seat plenty of customers and once again the bar staff are very helpful and cheerful. I will definitely be staying here again in the future and would advise anyone heading to this area to do the same. Thank you to all the staff at the Royal it was a pleasure to stay at your lovely hotel.

This clean and comfortable hotel has a great location for just popping for a walk. The food is fantastic, the breakfast is exceptional. What makes it so good though is the staff. All of them have huge smiles and are really friendly and helpful.

The location is superb but we were impressed at how friendly and engaging the staff were. No one we encountered had anything but a smile and friendly engagement. Absolutely awesome. The room was clean, bed super comfortable and breakfast second to none. Would not hesitate to rebook.

Situated in a quiet location, overlooking a park and water and a short 8 minutes walk from the station. An excellent value and good quality breakfast. Rooms are reasonably priced. Parking available on site. Liverpool city centre is only 20 minutes by train running regularly all day and late into the evening. Staff were all polite, helpful and prompt when dealing with any queries.
