Royal Hotel

What guests think

Royal Hotel offers no-frills pub-style rooms in a central, rail-accessible location, with many guests praising friendly staff, good-value stopover stays, and the lively bistro-bar, while recurring drawbacks include bar and train noise, dated furnishings, and inconsistent cleanliness.

Several reviews note the absence of air conditioning and limited in-room amenities; some rooms are comfortable or spacious, but expectations should be modest. Access involves stairs, which may be challenging for some. Expect a straightforward, budget stay.

I was looking for a last minute place to stay that was fairly cheap in the mountains and this hotel fitted the brief. The parking on site was good, check in process seamless and directions to move about the hotel were spot on. The downside was the room and corridors has a oily/food smell, there was early morning chatter from a local cafe and it's a fairly tight room. If you are looking for a cheap stay with good distance to Springwood shops, this is a place to consider.

We've travelled a bit in the last 20 years, Russia, China, Korea, Japan, Morocco, for example. We travel cheap and very rarely pay more than $100 a night for accommodation, even in Australia. The Royal is more than $100, and we thought it was amongst the 4 worst places we've ever stayed. The fridge was filthy, the walls had mould, the mattress was old and cheap. Staff had to come in to turn the ceiling fan off by sticking a fork in the switch and turning it. The staff, all young women, were helpful but the place is a rip off dump.

The room was hot and the window was open when I arrived on a 38 degree day which made it unbearable to stay in. I closed the window and went downstairs for a refreshing ale. After a while I went back up and closed the window and put the fan on (as I knew there was no air conditioning. There was no fridge in the room so couldn’t have a cool drink. I would not stay here again and would not recommend it.

A typical country pub - great as a stopover rather than a holiday. A little noisy, including the train station almost opposite, but closing the window helps. Not suitable if you struggle with stairs. Wonderful cafes right next door.

Our family room was essentially a room with a double bed and a creaky bunk for the kids in a small room with a tiny en-suite. The rooms haven’t been updated since the 80’s and there was a heavily soiled mattress stored under the bunks. The furniture in the shared area was dated and damaged, the room smelt strongly of ciggies as our family room was above the local pub smoking/outdoor drinking area so not a lot of sleep was had on the weekend. Linen was clean. We booked because this was the cheapest stay in the region and it showed - I won’t make that mistake again!! A plus was that it was close to shops as rooms accessed the Main Street of the town.
