What guests think

Across many reviews, travellers praise The Royal for friendly, helpful staff, clean refurbished rooms with spacious sea-view options, and an excellent cooked breakfast and tasty meals, all in a central seafront location that many find good value.

Common downsides are lots of stairs and no lift, with several guests noting accessibility challenges and luggage effort. Noise from the bar or nearby nightlife is mentioned by multiple reviewers, though some say higher rooms or closed doors reduce it. A few reports cite basic or small rooms, soft or low mattresses, hot water or shower fluctuations, occasional maintenance misses, late breakfast times, and limited paid parking. Expect a lively stay with welcoming service, but consider mobility and noise needs.

Had a 2 night stay 9-11 May All in very happy with everything The only one issue was ,I feel maybe when we booked the room ,which we did well in advance ,it should have been made clear our room was up 2 flights of stairs ,and no access to a lift. My husband was just recovering from surgery ,after having 2 knee replacements and struggled with the stairs Maybe with future bookings not only from us , but to anyone who books in the furure this should be made clear Thankyou Mrs Helen Wood

The staff were most helpful and accommodating including in the bar in the evening and for breakfast in the morning. The property was well positioned for my purpose. Unfortunately there is limited free parking available at the hotel and when I arrived there were no spaces in the hotel car park. There is street parking and a pay to park area close by.

Great choice for breakfast, everything prepared fresh and cooked to order. No lift at the hotel though, something to be aware of if you struggle with stairs as there are lots of them. Not a problem for us and we will definitely stay here again in we are in the area.

Lovely refurbishment, paid extra to have a suite with sea view however possibly the worse decision as there is live music on each Saturday so we were told when checking in “you might here some music”… returning to the room around 10pm for drinks and enjoying the suite was ruined, as was any chance of sleep until gone midnight - the live band could have been at the end of the bed and it couldn’t have been louder! Ruined what could have been a new regular stay as the rest was spot on and had already been planning bringing other guests for a return trip!

Great stay for one night in the half term break. The guy who checked us in was great, saw my struggle with the vast amount of stairs (i have a dodgy knee) he moved us to a first floor room instead of second floor! Room was clean and tidy, seemed to be newly decorated with new furniture! Great view across the sea, and even though it was on the front the noise from traffic wasn't too bad. Just a few things that could do with a little look in to are the curtains, don't hang properly and let light in! The shower is scalding hot and takes a minute to sort it whilst getting roasted! Kettle should be emptied between guests and the most important is have a mattress protector and decent pillows on the bed. Food in the bar below the rooms was great, no issue there at all! For £81 it was great value!

We booked an 'executive suite' (which turned out to be nothing more than a standard room) for 2 adults and our 15 year old son. When we checked in, the room was only set up for 2 adults. They gave us a cheap, flimsy, thin camp bed and a mattress which was less than an inch thick. When I went downstairs to see if there was something more suitable, I was told that was what they used for a 3rd bed. After returning later that evening, the loud music started playing. There was nothing on their listing to say they played blaring music until midnight!! After travelling all day, all we wanted was a peaceful nights sleep.Just after midnight, the music stopped. My son hardly slept and the staff's attitude was that they coudn't care less. Next morning at breakfast, the staff were more occupied with their phones and going outside to vape than they were looking after the guests. We watched one old lady wait at the bar for more than 2 minutes while the girl tapped away on her mobile. This truly is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. If you want blaring music, you will love it. If you want a nice, quiet, relaxing hotel with great staff, this place is as far from it as you can get.

On arrival, young man behind the bar didn’t actuallly work there he said !!! All the staff were out at a staff party. He didn’t know what time breakfast was, I woke in the morning and found it was 9am, no use to me working!! Paid extra to park, he directed me to what looked like a small car park belonging to residential flats, I was directed to park behind another car. I asked if it’s ok as I was blocking someone in, he said “it should be” I booked an executive room, the mattress on the bed was extremely poor, and had no mattress topper to try to make it better. The pillows were poor and flat. Would I stay again? Definitely not !!
